Jessica Jones Season 1

Overview

Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) used to be a superhero. Now she's a private investigator in New York City, drinking too much and taking cases nobody else wants. Set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the season is a dark, gritty, psychological thriller built around one villain: Kilgrave (David Tennant), a man who can control minds — and who controlled hers. It ends with Jessica defeating Kilgrave and escaping his control, and with the show's real victory: a hero who saves herself first. Kilgrave's mind control is the season's horror: not the violence he causes, but the violation of it — and Jessica's fight to take herself back.
