I read the DD comics on and off from the late 80s through the late 90s or early 00s. I'm still upset that Charlie Cox is Insufficiently Ginger, but it's practically my only complaint about the show, which is certainly praising with faint damnation.
If I had shame, I would be embarrassed to admit that I'm on my 11th watch-through. I am, however, amazed to find myself shipping Matt+Claire SO HARD. I'm not usually into het!ships, but damn their chemistry was SCORCHING. I'm also violently anti Matt+Karen (which is probably weird for a comic fan? IDK), though I'll be shocked if that isn't where they go.
I would totally have rewatched the show like 5 times already if my schedule hadn't been so busy lately. As it is, we're doing a weekly episode watch with friends, so I'm currently pretending to see everything for the first time even though I marathoned all of S1 in a week.
You're... you're on your 11th watch-through? Why aren't you my best friend?! OMG. I'm on my third watch-through but only because I keep hitting pause and rewind, so each episode lasts like 4 hours...
SA, I forgot to mention that I was also troubled by the lack of ginger (and maybe the lack of height, because MM has always been a 6 foot ginger for me), but I have noticed that in the direct sunlight Charlie's hair does go decidedly auburn, which has soothed my irrational butthurt over that. :) No, seriously, after the first watch-through, Charlie IS and always has been Matt Murdock. Which impresses the hell right out of me.

Um... most of that isn't what you asked. :D
