See, I'm on a completely opposite side from you. Except for the Miller hate, I hate Miller and always found his stories intriguing in concept, but very, VERY flat in execution. Yes. Frank Miller's Daredevil bored me almost to tears (to tears bored me "Luke Cage", and "Jessica Jones" was close to it). I don't have a problem with the plot concept of Born Again - what you called "high drama parts" of it ARE interesting, if not exaclty engaging dramatically the way they were written - but with the concept of Sister Maggie. As you said, the comics haven't really done anything with her. And I most certainly don't trust the DD showrunners to do anything interesting or even good with her.
Mhm, perhaps "problematic" is a wrong word for Mother Nun. Everyone is problematic to some degree. Let's say that I don't see how she could be made sympathetic. Maybe that's better?
Anyway. I'd be astonished if Petrie&Ramirez made Sister Maggie into something I don't actively hate. (And their track record is not so good.) And anyway, I'm quite disappointed that they haven't decided to do something fun and their own with Matt's mother. (I'm not gonna say that I adore the three lines Spider-Gwen gave us about Matt's mother, but I DO.)
Unless that final scene is just a tease and an easter egg, and that my prayers will be answered and nothing will come of it. Oh gods, how I wish.
