Re: Foggy's family in the comics

I agree with you nonnie, we'll have to wait and see. Just keep in mind that DD was only ever intended to have one season and be part of the package Defenders deal with the other series. The worldwide success of the show is what gave it a S2, and if they wanted to build up Foggy's background they would have given it to us in S1 (maybe if we get a S3? yaaaas!). As much as I'd love to believe they're going to devote some time to Foggy's background next season, I feel like they bit off more than they should have with Karen so they have backed themselves into a corner and have to deal with her baggage now, not to mention Fisk and Lady Kingpin, AND they're bringing in Elektra, Bullseye, and the Punisher on top of all that. Plus they still have to build story/plot towards Danny/Iron Fist, Kun L'un, and the Chaste and Hand connections.

Our characters can't really afford to be the comics characters, there's no time, and they've already admitted to being Punisher-heavy in S2 so if they don't cock it all up with trying to do too much all at once like spec scripts suggest *cough*GOTHAM*cough* then we're going to be very lucky if we get any more Matt OR Foggy backstory. I love Foggy and I hope I'm wrong, but the only way I see they have enough time is if they order a back 9. *shrugs* We'll find out soon, that's for sure.
