Netflix fans are still raving about “one of the best shows ever made” seven years after its release.
Almost a decade ago, in 2016, Jon Bernthal, 48, made his debut as Frank Castle, also known as The Punisher, in the second season of Daredevil, a vigilante who takes revenge on villains using extremely violent methods.
Although a spin-off with Jon as the protagonist was not originally in the pipeline, the actor’s performance was so acclaimed by viewers and critics that the following year the show became a reality.
Then, in 2017, The Punisher was released on Netflix, introducing fans to a show that many to this day have praised as one of their favorites.
As the show’s seventh anniversary approached, Reddit and X fans were shocked that it had already been seven years and continued to sing the show’s praises.
On X, formerly Twitter, one fan wrote: “I would love a new season of this”; ‘It’s still one of my favorite Marvel series.’; ‘The Punisher is someone I never expected to like, but I’m glad I did. Happy 7 years.’;

The Punisher was one of a series of Marvel shows that launched on Netflix before being removed from the platform and becoming available to stream on Disney+.
While some of the shows based on beloved comic book characters currently have an uncertain future after the transition, including Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist, Daredevil will be rebooted next year as Daredevil: Born Again.
The upcoming Nine Partners will see Charlie Cox reprise his role as protagonist Matt Murdock alongside Vincent D’Onofrio as villain Wilson Fix.
Meanwhile, Jon will also make his long-awaited return as The Punisher.
Now that both shows are back together, fans are hoping that a third season of the action-packed series is on the cards after its second outing premiered in 2019, two years after the first.
One fan said on X: “It was fantastic and I hope he can continue his series as Daredevil with Disney Plus.”

The series arrives more than a year after Charlie’s surprise cameo in 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, and Marvel president Kevin Feige confirmed shortly after that Cox would return as Daredevil in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
While most recent Marvel Cinematic Universe shows debuting on Disney Plus typically span between six and nine episodes, Daredevil: Born Again will have a supersized 18-episode order.
The show takes its title from an iconic 1986 comic book written by Frank Miller and illustrated by David Mazzuchelli, although this show is said to deviate greatly from that story.
The Punisher is available to stream on Disney+ and Netflix.
