Did anyone else find Joy Meechum's 180 turn between her second to last scene and last scene not believeable for the presentation of her character. There was absolutely nothing to imply a heel turn.
I forgive the weirdness of Joy Meachum that I might better enjoy the sheer awesomeness of Ward Meachum. Favorite character from the show.

The last few seconds of her putting her head together with Davos was out of the blue, but yeah... I never agreed with any of the Meachum complaints.

Don't order vanilla.

Ward was definitely layered and liberties taken from his comic counterpart and for the better. I expected him to take the lead villain's place by season's end. Yet it was not the case. Joy may go from bitter foe out for misguided revenge in the comics and later becomes Iron Fist's love interest, but the last scene just seem to cater to how the comics were with nothing to make any sense within the show for her to react that way. I may not be a good judge though as I was expecting Collen Wing and Bakatu to be a couple and Joy and Danny to be a couple. Instead Collen tried to kill Bakatu.

Can't say I'm surprised. Not enough dragon or chi. Lame.

Can we carry the Meachums over to Jessica Jones, though? Love me some Ward Meachum!

Just do Daughters of the Dragon with Colleen and Misty or throw Danny on Luke Cage for Heroes for Hire

Those would both be good.

But seriously, what was the point of doing an Iron Fist show if Netflix never intended to do the dragon, much of the chi, or really, ANYTHING?

I don't like Marvel comics, except for the Iron Fist. Read a ton of those, great stuff... so why the lackluster boring-ass show?

With that show being canceled. Marvel will just reboot it for its streaming service on Disney.

I hate watched the first season. It was like everyone wanted to be in charge of everyone else, either in charge of a company or in charge of a ninja clan trying to be charge of the company. Too much. Meachums were done differently in a good way, but the 180 between Joy second to last and last scene didnt make sense for the character. Ah, well. Iron Fist should fold into Luke Cage anyway. What were ratings for season 2? It was shorter, but had Daredevil influence.

Wow, that's really sh***y. And leave things with that cliffhanger? I'm sure (maybe?) we'll see more Danny and Colleen in other shows eventually in small parts... but this is probably goodbye forever to the Meachums. Probably the last we'll see of Typhoid Mary, too, and she just came up. In fact, it seemed like one of the main driving plot points of season 2 was building her up for season 3.

Very upsetting.

No, they won't.
If Netflix/Marvel really wanted, they could swing Typhoid Mary over to one of the other shows.

It's not like Jessica or Luke have a huge roster of villains, anyway. Especially Jessica.

Typhoid Mary is a Daredevil villain anyway. Of course the breakout character in Daredevil, The Kingpin is a Spider-Man villain himself. Villains for the most part are workable into the wider universe. The Meachum siblings (opposed to uncle/niece) was the one interesting aspect of Iron Fist. Unfortunately, it appears their story is told.

I still haven't watched Season 2. The joys of the Ward siblings (heh) hasn't been enough to convince me to put up with the rest of the show. Even less so now, knowing it was "meh" enough to ax the show going forward.

Yeah, especially her. They didn't even bother to give her a villain in season 2.

Might be fun to see Jessica run up against Mary, come to think of it.

A lot of us were expecting Typhoid Mary to be the big bad of Season 2... done right, she could have been a decent follow-up to Kilgrave.

But no, we got her mom (kinda), that scientist doctor (kinda), and... I dunno, Trish? Dumb.

Pretty sad that he never even got his costume. They had 3 chances to do so (season 1, Defenders, season 2) and it was nowhere in sight.

Yeah, pretty much everything about the Iron Fist show (both seasons and the Defenders) was just a complete and total mess of dropping the balls.
