Finished season 2. Depressing season that wasn't close to the first season. It was ok though and I like the character. No real villain like David Tenant was. Hopefully s3 is good with slot of questions. [Reply]
I'm having a hard time getting myself interested in watching it at all. I really didn't like the focus on Trish in season 2 and this looks like even more of that.
Rewatching Luther in order to catch the new episodes on BBCA, and recently started watching Outlander (the books are okay, and Ronald D. Moore is great, so I figured why not...). [Reply]

Personally, I like the neo-noir approach and tone ... of course, I still like a good western, so there's that ...
The moral ambiguity combined with the self-narration by the protagonist is a great way to present a super-hero living in a corrupt world, IMO. When you think about it, that character design is one of the things that sets Marvel apart.

Plus, I think Ritter does a damn good job in the role.
This season reminds me a lot of Dexter because of the serial killer. If he had more of a method to his madness, I think the plot line would have been stronger. The scene...
Spoiler!
...where Jessica Jones is walking away from the train as it devolves into a crime scene and everyone else goes out of focus as she narrates. That could easily have been a scene taken straight from Dexter when it was still good.
