Marvel fans were let down when Daredevil, easily the most popular of the MCU Netflix shows, was cancelled just a few weeks after its well-received third season premiered.

To get a sense of just how popular it is, Parrot Analytics (via Deadline) have looked at 'viewer engagements' (tweets, likes, viewers) and deduced that Daredevil was the fourth most popular show across all streaming platforms in the US during the week it was axed.

They state that only Narcos, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Stranger Things, all Netflix originals, performed better that week.

Of course, it's not necessarily due to a lack of popularity or critical acclaim that Daredevil was cancelled. Disney launching its own streaming service is causing all sorts of complications with its content on other platforms, but you can read more about that here.

Marvel and Netflix haven't officially stated that the upcoming seasons of Jessica Jones and The Punisher aren't going to be their last, but even the people who work on the shows think that the writing is on the wall.

A statement accompanying Daredevil's calculation insists that the "character will live on in future projects for Marvel", but we doubt that they are on about Charlie Cox's version of the character in that specific continuity.



For now, Daredevil, Jessica Jones and the rest of the Marvel Netflix shows are available to stream on (you guessed it) Netflix.
