Disney's cancellation of Daredevil came as something of a shock. Fans weren't particularly surprised when the underperforming Iron Fist got the chop, and perhaps Luke Cage was just an edge case... but surely the critically acclaimed Daredevil, which had just screened its best season yet, was safe. Sadly, that proved not to be the case. While many reasons have been bandied about, my opinion is that with Disney+, Disney's own streaming service, on the way, the corporation simply didn't see the point in providing content for its soon-to-be primary competitor.
