Jessica Jones (Netflix)
« on: November 25, 2015, 08:42:55 am »
Jessica Jones is a new series on Netflix that was just released earlier this month. It is based on the Marvel comic book character by the same name. Jessica is a private eye that has some supernatural powers, most notably super-human strength.

So far I am really enjoying the series. Although it is based on a comic book superhero, the supernatural elements don't seem so pervasive -- more like the new Gotham series and less like Michael Keaton's Batman movie. I think it helps that she is a PI and tends to use her sleuthing skills rather than her supernatural powers. I was wondering if anyone else has watched this yet (JediJohnnie?) and what they thought of the series thus far...

Looking forward to it as soon as I finish Flash.  I watched all of Arrow that was available although I think a new season will come out and so then before Jessica Jones was available we started watching Flash and when we finish that will start Jessica Jones.

I have a hard time staying awake when watching it. Sometimes I don't get home until really late and try to watch it. But A few minutes into the show and I am already dozing off. So far I have only seen bits and pieces not sure what I missed but I am still in the first episode.

First couple episodes were great. The middle episodes, not so much. Felt they just kind of dragged on. Have 3 episodes to go. Hopefully, they pick up. Not sure I would watch a season 2 at this point.

Krysten Ritter was just on The Talk talking about her series.  I'd like to see it, I like her.  She did great in Breaking Bad.

I don't have Netflix currently, so I haven't been able to see the entire show. As luck would have it, they streamed the entire series as a one time event on youtube on a channel I'm subscribed to. Obviously, I was unable to watch the entire 13 hrs in one sitting, but I saw 3 or 4 of the mid/late episodes.

 I'm not a huge fan of "Dark & Gritty" comic properties, so it ultimately may not be my cup of tea, but from what I was able to see, I thought it was pretty well done. David Tennant made for a suitably demented/ever so slightly sympathetic villain in The Purple Man.

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!
