Marvel's Jessica Jones (Netflix)
The second "street-level" superhero drama by the Netflix/Marvel partnership will premiere on November 20th. I am definitely excited considering the quality of Daredevil.

How do you find the time to watch, like, every TV show, and then all the films you watch?

This show is amazing and in my opinion better and more addicting than "Daredevil." I'm six episodes in and it's incredibly atmospheric, creepy, thrilling and engaging. Krysten Ritter is a fantastic lead. Can't wait for more.

Also I LOVE Trish (Rachael Taylor) and her relationship with Jessica. And I love the chemistry between Jessica and Luke Cage. So much good stuff here.

I'm loving this. Could be better than Daredevil by the end of it.

Re: Marvel's Jessica Jones (Netflix)
Finished this morning. AMAZING first season, and definitely a stronger series than "Daredevil" overall. There's just so many layers to the storyline here that I think it's impossible not to get caught up in it. All the characters are fantastic.
Kilgrave is easily the best and scariest Marvel villain yet. So menacing. I loved the final showdown between him and Jessica on the docks - both David Tennant and Krysten Ritter deserve Emmy consideration for their work here. And the final scene between the two of them was perfect. "Smile."
I hope Krysten Ritter pops up on the "Luke Cage" series.
Also Trish was such a great character as well. I loved her character progression and her relationship with Jessica which was really the heart of the series.
Rosario Dawson was also lovely in the finale and it was great to see her character again.
This show also had several moments that were legitimately terrifying. That whole sequence where Hogarth was being attacked in "AKA 1,000 Cuts" made my skin crawl.

He's butthurt that the good show "The Flash" has only 9 pages on KJ and wants more people talking exclusively about DC properties. He will have none of this Marvel stuff!
I mean, I'm not saying JJ isn't a good show. But it's just hilarious that OMG NETFLIX/MARVEL put out something new! GREAT GREAT GREAT!
Daredevil was fine. I'm sure this is too.

Re: Marvel's Jessica Jones (Netflix)
What is hilarious about that? "Jessica Jones" seems to be universally considered not just a great Marvel show, but a great TV series (of any genre) overall. Its Metacritic-Score is higher than for ANY new network series this season.

It's solely because it's Marvel. If it were anything else he would not "find it funny". People aren't gushing about it because it's Marvel. People are gushing about it because it's legitimately good.

I am the #1 Netflix Originals hater, but I always am suckered into their new shows first episodes only to have same reaction. They are good at concepts that look great on paper at least
