    Recently started watching this show and for the first several episodes I was very intrigued. Kilgrave the super-villain (acted insanely well by Tennant), is compelling, and Jones at first is sympathetic, interesting, and supporting characters have promise.

    Unfortunately by Episode 7 I had lost quite a bit of interest. After a while Jones - perpetually drunk, unwashed, sullen and angry - grates; she is very one-dimensional.

    Netflix's next Marvel series, which is quite, and focuses on trauma from abuse; physical, sexual and/or psychological.

    Of the 5 Marvel shows Netflix did this one is by far the weakest, Jessica Jones tries to be a Privet detective show and goes extremely heavily on all the clichés. Kilgrave is an interesting villain, but can't make up for the weak character that Jessica Jones is. I would recommend any of the Netflix marvel shows over this one, even Iron Fist season 1 was more entertaining than this.
