Review:

Best pilot since Marvel’s Agent Carter. So far I’ve consumed four episodes and I love this show so much. A lot of the fight scenes have been better shot than most action movies being released lately. The story is compelling and I like how they’ve worked in mentions to the Avengers. Not the characters but the destruction they did to the city. The characters are real, but not so real that you can’t see them donning black and kicking butt.

I purposefully didn’t read much about this show going in because I wanted to see it without any expectations, and these first four episodes have been incredible. I’m so looking forward to the rest of this season and all the Marvel+Netflix series to come.

5/5

Side note: Kind of sad to read that AKA Jessica Jones might not be released this year, it’s times like this when I’m reminded that we’re in a whole new world of TV and have no idea what “networks” are going to do
