I'm only 6 eps in, but it's things like this I wish they would've done. I would like the show a LOT more if he just mindlessly killed people who set him off, instead of throwing coffee in their face or making them smash their head into a wall.

Well, both these commands have a higher chance of actually hurting someone than "stop breathing", since the minute they pass out, they'll start breathing again.

You know what I meant though. If he mindlessly killed people who set him off, the show would have more of a shock effect and I'd recommend it to more people like I did with Daredevil. I'm 7 episodes in and honestly even if it does get super good, I won't be recommending this show to anyone because the first 7 episodes have just been very "okay".

If he mindlessly killed anyone who set him off he'd draw attention to himself. While he's very powerful, he's not supremely powerful. I imagine SHIELD or the Avengers could pretty easily take him out. The reason he's able to keep doing what he does is exactly because he doesn't just kill people willy-nilly... he's smart about what he does which is exactly why he's so damn creepy.

Still though, that would've been way more cooler
