It's hard to believe that it's been seven years since the explosive and unforgettable TV series, hailed as one of the greatest, first premiered on Netflix. Fans are still in awe of the show's impact on their lives.
It all started back in 2016 when Jon Bernthal made his debut as Frank Castle, also known as The Punisher, in the second season of Daredevil. He played a vigilante seeking revenge on wrongdoers through brutal and violent methods. While a spin-off with the Marvel character was not initially planned, Jon's performance was so widely praised by viewers and critics that it became a reality the following year.
In 2017, The Punisher finally premiered on Netflix, introducing fans to a show that many still consider to be one of their favorites. As the seventh anniversary approached, fans on Reddit and X were amazed that it had been that long since the show's release, yet they couldn't help but continue to sing its praises.
On X, @YngJackieAprile wrote, "I'd love a new season of this," while @FrequenceAyo said, "Still one of my favorite Marvel series." Viewers were blown away by Jon's performance as Frank Castle, and many expressed their desire for a third season.
To mark the anniversary, @MagicHandz commented, "The Punisher is someone I never expected to like, but I'm glad I do. Happy 7 years!" Another fan, @maximumjpool, described the first season as "fantastic" and a "gem in the Marvel Netflix era." @vinnytalks_ added, "One of my favorite shows. Ever." And @frkastle, who clearly drew inspiration from Frank Castle for their X handle, said the show "changed their life."
The Punisher was one of several Marvel shows released on Netflix before being moved to Disney Plus. While the future of some of these shows is uncertain, including Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, Daredevil is set to be rebooted next year as Daredevil: Born Again. The nine-episode series will see Charlie Cox reprising his role as Matt Murdock, alongside Vincent D'Onofrio as Wilson Fisk. And, to fans' delight, Jon will also be making his highly-anticipated return as The Punisher.
With Daredevil and The Punisher back together, fans are hopeful for a third season of The Punisher. The show's second season premiered in 2019, two years after the first, and fans are eager for more. "It was fantastic, and I'm hoping he gets to continue his series like Daredevil with Disney Plus," @Mitchhjelseth1 shared. @YngJackieAprile agreed, saying, "I'd love a new season of this." We can only keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best.
