Ep 260: Isle of Joy? More Like Isle of Huh? – Daredevil Ep 8 Breakdown

In this jam-packed episode of Watchin It, Donnell and Robert dissect Daredevil: Born Again Episode 8, Isle of Joy—a title that left them scratching their heads and a plot that left them frustrated, intrigued, and occasionally speechless.

From Kingpin’s slow but steady return to power, to Bullseye’s escape and surprise sniper attack, this episode brings the tension—but also a ton of questionable writing, missed opportunities, and confusing character logic. The hosts break it all down: Matt’s man-child energy, Heather’s bizarre flip-flop, Bullseye’s prison Houdini act, and the political theater of Fisk’s high-society gala.

They also veer into praise for classic Daredevil (Netflix version), marvel at some standout scenes like the dance floor whisper threat, and share a few laughs about deep fryers, blind reflexes, and the logistics of vigilante math.

Stick around after the Daredevil talk for updates on Robert’s video game addiction to Schedule I, Donnell’s new anime discovery (Lazarus), and a hot recommendation for the mob drama Mob Land.
