Hawkeye 06- So This Is Christmas

 

Clint and Kate team up to take on the Tracksuits, which ends up with Kate battling the freakin' Kingpin which the Swordsman clears his name and helps out.  Hawk and Yelena make each other cry talking about Tasha.  Kate's mom gets arrested and she goes to have Xmas with the Bartons.  Finally Clint gives Bobbi Laura her SHIELD Rolex watch back.  It says Agent 19 on it.  There was much humor, action and real emotion in this episode, and it flew by way faster than a few of the early episodes.  Heck, Scott Lang was even name dropped by Hawkeye at one point, and any episode with an owl in it is always great.  I keep wondering how long Marvel/Disney can keep up shows of this quality.
All in all, this was a pretty great series.  It hit all the right moments perfectly.  Lots of archery and the badguys end up with many arrows in various parts of their bodies.  And  unholy poo, was the Kingpin both scary, charismatic and a bit funny at times.  Vincent D'Onofrio is amazing, and who knew Wilson Fisk could pull off that Hawaiian shirt?  I did not care much for Daredevil, but perhaps I should revisit it.  I am looking forward to the next Marvel show.
