No Right Answer: Superhero That Most Deserves a TV Series

Dan looks like he was in a hostage video during the Expo pitch. Just sayin'.
I also agree with the DareDevil win. Law & Order but in reverse... with SUPERHEROES! Sounds like a win to me. But both choices could make interesting episodes of Agents of SHIELD and maybe they'll get a spin off.

Deadpool would be cool to have his own show.
THAT SAID... I want a Heroes for Hire show. Something low budget because Luke Cage and Iron Fist don't really have big CGI heavy powers. It's all physical stuff and some martial arts. You can have different heroes and villains appear as small characters, cameos, etc. It would be a great way to introduce smaller characters to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) without giving everyone their own show, movie, or one-off TV show. And who doesn't like bounty hunters? I think it'd be fun. I'm very surprised no one mentioned this.

I second the idea of Daredevil getting a show. And unlike CSI/Law & Order/NCIS, it can actually START silly instead of starting somewhat normal and getting more and more stupid. In fact, the sillier it gets, the better the show would be. Lull them in with the standard crime episodes for half a season and then Elektra shows up and we're suddenly dealing with ninjas.
Plus, there's potential for great cliffhangers. Like an episode ends with a teaser of a certain super-villain...

Nice episode here and an interesting discussion, both characters would be pretty cool to have a TV series based around. Now personally, while I can see the need for more love for female Superheroes, I prefer Daredevil. That said, while I really like Daredevil as a character, and even his movie (loved the director's cut in particular), SilverUchiha's idea;
If we are also including DC superheroes as part of this discussion then I'd also love to see a Gold Booster and Blue Beetle TV series.
...is full of win. A Heroes for Hire TV series would be absolutely awesome.SilverUchiha said:

Daredevil would be a good show. Street level is cheap to produce. Plus they could do a season of Matt dealing with the Hand. Ninjas are really cheap to produce and they are empirically cool.
Though Heroes for Hire would have me coming back every single week. Good point SilverUchiha!

Daredevil could be interesting. I think Ms Marvel would turn into a Smallville-esque show if they tried it. Only it wouldn't have the clout of Superman to keep it going.
I think Heroes for Hire will probably come into Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and possibly get a spin off from that. The first episode showed they could reasonably do Luke Cage and Iron Fist. The show is going to need to come up with superheroes at some point at those are the easiest, well except for the Punisher. Who should get his own show.

"Has to be cost-effective."
So, how do you do pull off the flying and energy blast-shooting Ms. Marvel television show, Chris? I know the most TV shows, nowadays, have really good budgets behind them to the point where they're almost as good as movies; but still.
It'd be easier to make a She-Hulk television series, because then you'd just have to find a charismatic, tall, and well built lawyer to paint green. Or, have her make a special appearance in a Daredevil show, which would totally work. Anytime you need to show off Matt Murdock's super-senses, just zoom in on his ear and up the volume on whatever he's "looking" for.

YES! Daredevil wins! People go nuts for detective and lawyer shows, so Daredevil's a no brainer. Bonus, he's a trained ass-kicker, so he'll beat up the perp in one half of an episode, then prosecute him in court for the other half. They could begin with taking on "normal" criminals, then step up to the costumed variety (and make the Kingpin the Big Bad for at least one season), then bring on the ninjas. Crossing over with S.H.I.E.L.D. is just gravy. About the Kingpin: we haven't seen him in a cartoon since the '90's; that must change.
And shall I assume you guys don't like the Superman/Wonder Woman romance going on in DC?

The Doom Patrol.
Capitalizes on the love of "weird" shows, like Fringe and Supernatural.
Plus, Doom Patrol is more interesting then, oh, most super heroes.

Good win!
Deadpool would be truly amazing, but only if HBO made it.
Because PG13 it would suck harder than the supermassive black hole at the center of the universe!!!!
