Did You Know Cloak and Dagger Had a TV Show?! - Friday!
Yo, good morning! It’s Friday, and I just finished binging both seasons of Cloak & Dagger. I don’t typically watch a lot of TV, but when I do, I really commit. I’ll go months without watching anything, and then someone will recommend a show, and suddenly I’m in it for the long haul, watching like seven seasons straight over two or three weeks.
Cloak & Dagger was one of those shows I wouldn’t have known about if it wasn’t for Marvel Rivals. The game brought these characters to my attention—characters I didn’t even know existed. I follow Marvel, but not that deeply. I know the X-Men, all the ’90s cartoon characters, and when I started playing Marvel Rivals and saw Cloak and Dagger as OP healers, someone suggested I watch the show. I was like, “They have a show?” Then I looked it up and found this tween drama on ABC. It’s very similar to Arrow or The Flash, you know, that genre of superhero show made for a younger audience.
At first, I thought it was pretty bad TV. But by episode four of season one, I was hooked. Two weeks later, I’d watched all 20-something episodes, and I was left wondering when season three would drop because I actually like the characters now. So much so that I’ve gone and ordered a bunch of the comics just to catch up. It’s weird, but yo, the show is actually good! If you’re into that tweeny Arrow-esque, Flash style, or even the Marvel shows like Daredevil or Luke Cage, give it a shot. It’s only two seasons, so it might leave you wanting more, but I thought it was pretty good for what it was—I’d put it up there with Luke Cage at least.
Anyways, y’all have a great one! Till the next one, take it easy, peace!
