Netflix's Punisher Season 2 Viewership WAY Down According to Analytics Firm

[Canada-Man]

Analytics firm Jumpshot reports Punisher Season 2 viewership is down 40% compared to its first season. The company compared season one and season two’s opening weekend premieres.

Not only is viewership allegedly down, but Rotten Tomatoes scores also indicate a decline in quality from the first to second season. The critics gave the second season a 54% rating with audiences giving it 84%. That is down from the first season which saw critics give the show a 67% and audiences give it a 93%.

A number of fans were specifically disappointed with Billy Russo’s costume design, the series’ main antagonists. After having his face run across glass, Russo’s face only has minor damage and he wears masks. It was a watered down take compared to the comic books and even Punisher: War Zone.

Plain and simple. It sucked.

I loved the first season and recommend it to most who ask.

The second started off well but it kind of jumped the shark halfway through and the ending was a disappointment.

This might be a good point to end the series. Or regroup and put more effort into going forward.

I'm watching True Detective and see many parallels. The third season so far has been quite superior to the second.

Just my 2 cents.

Yup! jumped the shark indeed. So very disappointed! I’m glad to know I’m not the only one

Pass as they didn't deliver after the first season.
