All is well that ends in pizza.

Does this mean we may see Luke Cage, Hellcat and JJ fight together against a foe?

Hey. New board.

We just watched the Jessica Jones pilot. It was really good though arguably even MORE disturbing than Daredevil on some levels. We will see if I can make it through all ten. (I got through seven daredevils because though it was objectively amazing I just have trouble sustaining a desire to put myself through emotional pain for that long. See also The Sopranos. Also the reason I haven't ever really given The Wire or Breaking Bad a fair shot.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

All thirteen.

I've seen ten episodes and if you thought the pilot was disturbing, you are not going to make it through this whole series.

It's fucked up as shit.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

It is. Beautifully so. I have seen all the episodes.

It's a slow burn, but about halfway through, it heats up and then I'm screaming a lot.

I was more into Daredevil for a lot of reasons, and this is a very different show, but it's a really good one.

Hey. New board.

Sigh. I wish my recognition of quality story overcame my desire not to be freaked out and depressed.

There's nothing wrong with not wanting to watch things that freak you out and depress you. It's just unfortunate that most examples of "quality story" take that route.

Welp, you've always got Master of None.

Compassionately intolerant

PC must be reading my mail.

I got through a few episodes of Jessica Jones and had to skip to the end.

It was just a bit too gritay for me.

I then, immediately, switched to Master of None.

Heh.

brillig

I'm not a fan of uber-gritty. The character has to have a chance to experience some joy--and not just so the writers can take it away from the character to prove how gritty and edgy and "real" they are. I don't do torture porn, physical or mental.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm 4 eps in and I'm liking it much more than Daredevil. There was one fight that had me cringing from the sheer brutality, but it was appropriate for the story. I'm hooked.
