Jessica Jones from Netflix

Marvel cinematic universe is getting bigger with Jessica Jones,  newest TV show within the universe. Netflix helped to produce the series along with owning exclusive rights to streaming of the show. TV series so far have been set within mini small universes set within the bigger overall universe. Agents of shield shared elements even story lines from movies, Agent carter is another show.   Yet to catch up on Agent carter or Shield.  Marvel plan is keeping certain characters separate within same universe.  Movies are referenced based on how important they are for the story line. Daredevil is set within same area as Jessica Jones, plans for multilayer series covering each characters from within hells kitchen.  Once every main character comes to netflix going to see the defenders form loosely organized team.  Current plans Luke Cage, Iron fist to see own series before that happens.

 

Marvel has plan for movies and TV series bringing as many characters as possible from comics to screens.  Minor small characters like Jessica Jones, Agent carter getting screen time.

Back to Jessica Jones……

Most adult show Marvel has created yet covering range of seriously adult themes which are dark. Does not shy away from adult themes, Daredevil did brush certain themes but avoided going deep.  Jessica Jones goes deep into themes of mental illness with rape.  Often shows just brush these themes but this show goes deeply into the subject matter.  Rich source which is the characters allows the show to get away with it.  Even a nod to LGBT community with lesbian couple who are just a couple.  Series does not seek to clone or copy daredevil which is why so good.  Both focus on different elements of each character with different themes.

Jessica Jones makes me want to binge watch Agent carter along with shield.  Many ways Jessica Jones makes me think of Ant man small unknown super hero who is not a hero but becomes anti hero.

Watch the show and enjoy it. I have done so far..
