After a tightly plotted, tonally consistent start, is Jessica Jones unravelling towards its climax?
Here are episode 9’s viewing notes…
Remind me again whether were supposed to think shes the good guy or not?
Its safe to say that there were things here that didnt work for me.
If we cant get behind her actions, who are we supposed to identify with?
Its not that she isnt sympathetic, its that shes constantly on the cusp of total incompetence.
At least the dialogue in those scenes was snappy.
Its a pretty major element to introduce just as the shows supposed to be heading towards its conclusion.
I get that hes difficult.
I get that she cant just rip his head off for logistical reasons.
Shouldnt she at least be considering one of them?
I genuinely dont know whats going on with this show right now.
And yet here we are.
And finally, we get the big twist: Jessica IS immune to Kilgraves powers.
I dont mind admitting that Im not feeling very optimistic about the next few episodes, though.
