Jessica Jones

A private investigator with strength she never wanted is drinking her way through the aftermath of a man who could make anyone do anything, and then she finds out he is alive.

Kilgrave is the most frightening antagonist in this catalogue and he never throws a punch. He tells people what to do and they do it, and the season is about what that leaves behind in the people it was done to.

The show is a detective story about coercive control with the metaphor made literal, and it is careful with it. What Jessica Jones is fighting is not a plan to take a city. It is a man who thinks he did nothing wrong because everyone said yes.
