Watched the finale just before the game. Excellent season. Looking forward to season two and the inevitable showdown with IGH.
Curious to know if we get to see Hellcat next season as well. Also assuming we'll see more of Nuke. Can't wait for Cage and Defenders!

This is a pretty good show. Id be lying if I said Luke Cage wasn't my favorite part of it, but the drama and mystery is pretty cool.
As mentioned, there's a shit ton of sex. I feel like every time I turn around Luke and Jessica are boning. And some seriously ****ed up shit!
Spoiler!
They've also done a great job at setting up Purple Man as an antagonist. |

Tennant has become one of my favorite MCU villains along with Hiddleston and D'Onofrio.

...really reminds me of the wife on House of Cards for some reason. I just couldn't shake the feeling that they were the same people. Weird for two fictional characters that are completely unrelated played by two different actors to give me that feeling. |

I'll save my negatives for later but I'd give DD an "A" and JJ a "B+." I liked the JJ story better but there were some groaner moments. The hospital scene with her lifting a person up, and you can tell that person is on wires, was probably the worst...

Just finished it. Pretty damn good shit. In the first few episodes I thought it was pretty good shit.
Then the back half is waaaay better. And doesn't **** around. It throws some damned haymakers. Marvel/Netflix did great with this one. Some things were pretty tough to tackle with mind control, but it did well. Both Daredevil and Jessica Jones are pretty solid. |

Robin Wright is House of Cards Carrie Anne Moss is the lawyer on Jessica Jones Its almost like they went out of their way to make her look like her and then said act like her too.

Hell of it is I had it figured all wrong. I was the most worried about the Jessica Jones Character. That is a damn complex character and I thought there was a low probability of Krysten Ritter doing a decent job. She did really well. Tennant knocked it out of the park IMO. Even the Malcom and Trish characters I thought were well done. I figured Carrie Anne Moss had that shit nailed down. Disappointing that she is the one that dropped the ball. |

I don't think that is on Carrie Anne Moss. That's on the directing. And I thought she was great. Hogarth is a man in the comics (which I didn't know until after doing some reading after watching). During the first few episodes I was wondering if Hogarth really was a man, and JJ's mind was ****ed up and she was seeing a woman. Maybe Killgrave was hiding in plain site.
Moss hit all the right notes of a stereotype for power hungry assholes. I liked the character and the portrayal by Hogarth. Stopped watching House of Card a long time ago. I see Trinity, not Spacey's wife.

I had to go look up the actresses in IMBD to make sure, that's how much it was messing with me while I watched.
