Easy enough question. What show is better? I am having this argument with a friend. He is a huge Arrow fan and thinks Daredevil is actually terrible. I have watched every episode of both shows and enjoy them both. I am excited for the Arrow premiere, but let's get real here, Daredevil is FAR better in every way. It is easily better written and acted and I would argue that it has the best fight scenes out of any show ever made. Arrow is interesting, but gets REALLY cheesy and bad at times.

Arrow started off better. Its first season is better than Daredevil's first season IMO. Problem is Arrow started going downhill after S2 and now resembles a teen drama more often than a superhero show. The fight scenes in Arrow also noticeably degraded to the point where they all look like dancing shadows.
So I'd say Daredevil... though it remains to be seen how well Daredevil does after a few more seasons.

I have seen every episode of Arrow and I enjoy it, as I said, but in no way is season one of Arrow better than season one of Daredevil. How? In my opinion at least, season one of Daredevil is the best season of any super hero show ever made. Wilson Fisk is an amazing villain and that role was written and acted better than anything that has ever been in Arrow. I do love Deathstroke though.

That's hard for me to say, because Arrow is hampered by the fact that its on regular TV. If it were on Netflix like Daredevil is then it would be much more hard core, tough and gritty just like Daredevil is. In fact, for a regular TV show it is quite action packed and violent. And its always had lots of nods to the comics. Daredevil has the freedom to do more, but I actually like both shows.

Because DD's pace can get dragging at times whereas when I binged Arrow's first season I didn't sleep just to finish it. I never felt that kind of "can't stop watching it" quality from DD or any of the netflix shows. Also, the storyline of Arrow S1 is more interesting than DD S1 imo. DD S1 is pretty straightforward.

Daredevil. I suppose if Arrow were on Netflix it would have a grittier look and storyline. I do like the show though in spite of Felicity.

Daredevil season 1 is probably the best superhero show ever made. You couldn't pay me to watch Arrow. I'll let you decide which way I voted.

Is this even a question? Arrow on its best day is still miles behind the best of Daredevil.

It looks like the same routine every time to the point you can see when they are about to finish the fight.

Daredevil. I don't think Arrow has gotten as bad as others say, but it's definitely gone off the rails quite a bit compared to its earlier seasons.
