Jessica Jones, Season Two
(Netflix, 2018)
Without a villain of David Tennant’s inner intensity, Season Two isn’t quite sure what to do with itself. The episode lengths afford time for character development, yet this aspect devolves into a relentless near-farce of about-facing. Krysten Ritter still makes it worthwhile.
Jessica Jones, Season 1
created by Melissa Rosenberg (2015)
Krysten Ritter nails the essence of depressed-yet-determined ex-superhero Jessica Jones, whose life as a down-and-out PI is put on hold when she is targeted by a supervillain with powers of mind control (played with casual monstrosity—yet also vulnerability—by David Tennant).
