Do you think Karen smiles when she sees Frank that night by the water not only because she’s glad to see him, but also for the fact that this is the first time she’s seen Frank clean shaven and without bruises?
hi remember when that waitress called Frank a hipster and he got all annoyed but when Karen playfully told him that he was rocking the whole hipster look, he flirted back and asked her if he could pull off a man-bun? he’s really that in love with her huh
some of y'all have never waited nearly 3 years for frank castle and karen page to kiss and get smacked in the face with nothing and it shows
Does Brett ‘Please Let This Man Have a Nap’ Mahoney put out a restraining order against Karen the next time he has Frank in custody?
*circulates a picture of Karen to all the cops assigned to watch Frank* This is Karen Page. No matter what she tells you, do not, under any circumstances, let her get within 500 feet of Castle. I don’t care if she threatens to sue you, your family, and your cow, and then write an expose on the whole thing, if you let her in the building, Castle will be on the streets by the end of the day, and none of us want that.
✨anyways, frank and karen are in love, victory never felt so good, cheers bitches ✨
It’s bad writing.
If Matt or Frank actually listened to Karen’s experiences and respected her, then the story would have gone in a direction the creative teams/executives/whomever did not want.
Acknowledge Karent’s trauma and significance as her own person???
What??? NO.ooOooo…..
No. If they acknowledge that, then who will they falsely idolize as “innocent” and “safe” in order for them to relentlessly dump their shit on while simultaneously demeaning her own experiences because how could she possibly relate? But she has to be their captive audience for all their drama. Sadly, for all the glimpses that might give us hope of otherwise, in the recent seasons Karen is a balm when she is around Matt or Frank, not her own character. It’s been such a regression, especially in TPS2.
For all the strength and depth Karen Page has as a character, the writers and creative teams still really love to have men around her, men she respects and cares for, treat her with such coddling disrespect because… well, it’s the man’s story, ultimately, not hers, and that’s what serves their actions and arcs better.
I guess.
I mean, I wouldn’t write it like that. But whatever. I’m especially baffled by Frank’s response to Karen this season. It’s such a rug-pull from the writers. And just. Bad. Annoyingly bad. What’s the trope? The “Idiot Ball?” But the writers are holding the Idiot Ball. And Karen Page just shuts her mouth and deals with it probably because they justify it as ‘she wouldn’t want to burden the men with her truth’ but that’s BS. It is. It is such reductive BS. It just gives them the excuse to keep having dudes shovel guilt and belittlement on her and without her being able to shut down their bullshit like any sane person would. Because then the men would have to challenge their own bullshit reasoning and the plot would have to change accordingly. But that’s not what the writers and creative teams want - they want their edgy male leads to be edgy. Karen would take that away and so it can’t happen.
I’m so tired of these shows. In this regards, both the seasons have really, really let me down. Some of the reasoning used for the narrative direction… I just cannot comprehend. Why? WHy. Why…..
Honestly The Punisher s1 did not have to go that hard on the Kastle content, but it did, and I for one am so glad

about karen page’s pain and suffering this season of daredevil: frank castle wouldn’t let that happen.
also, i completely buy and support karen not involving frank in all of this, she very much was one of two people in his life pushing him to take off the vest and HEAL. of course she wouldn’t risk his peace and safety by dragging him back into this mess. she cares way too much about him to do that.
i loved the difference between karen seeing frank again vs seeing matt again hdkgjfd the parallels were there but the subtle differences were so funny
frank: gets her permission to enter her house, meets her out in the open, she agrees to help him, a big hug
matt: “pay your rent” “do you want to help me?” “no”
I just watched the fourth episode of the new season of daredevil where karen goes up to a bunch of guys who are catcalling girls and pulls a fucking gun on them and honestly
somewhere frank castle is having a fucking aneurysm
I can’t get over how Frank and Karen flirt over the most dangerous situations, like these two danger magnets really are perfect for each other. For example:
- Karen threatened to leave Frank to rot in his ‘goddamn’ jail cell if he didn’t cooperate and all he could do was stare at her moon-eyed and smirk at how she wouldn’t take any of his shit
- Frank tried to turn up the charm after stealing Karen’s car and picking her up by telling her about how he used to sing along to ‘Shining Star’ all the time
- They flirted about Karen almost shooting Frank with her gun both at the diner and then later on the sidewalk after they had reunited (I’m 1000% convinced that Karen owning a gun/knowing how to use it is a huge turn on for Frank).
- After meeting up at the bridge at night, Karen playfully asked Frank if Dinah’s burning car had anything to do with him, and he just smirked and said “Maybe”.
The real reason that the Netflix characters can’t appear in Infinity War is that if Frank found out that Thanos was endangering Karen, the movie would be over too soon.
