What exactly will Marvel be allowed to do on these upcoming Netflix shows? Well, it's obvious that since it will be on Netflix and not ABC they get to go a little more gritty then normal. Well some people have asked Daredevil showrunner Steven DeKnight about exactly how violent the show can be and he is kinda vague but accurate:
Less than Spartacus, more than SHIELD. RT @TimLydon0: What are you allowed to show on @Daredevil in terms of violence, swearing, etc?

There will be blood. RT @haxelerator: Love your work, can't wait to see what you'll do with my favorite superhero this May!
