this was great, i'm glad y'all enjoyed it!!! i'm so obsessed with how S01 looks, especially all the colors, like it is just so incredible. looking forward to when y'all get back to this!!!
also, i'd love to see Jessica come back but i wholeheartedly believe S01 of Jessica Jones is top 3 seasons of TV marvel has ever made (along with Agents of SHIELD S02 and Daredevil S03. though to be fair, i haven't seen the stuff they did on Hulu like Legions and Helstrom and Runaways) and i'd rather they just left her alone and did not try to incorporate her into the MCU. also, Luke was perfectly cast and i'd love to see him come back too, but also his show is so deeply political and shockingly nuanced for marvel, after that awful Falcon and The Winter Soldier show i'd rather they just leave him alone too tbh.
I watched the first season of Runaways and really enjoyed it. It was a really solid teen show. I’ve heard amazing things about Legion, but I never picked that one up. And boy, I never thought to compare Luke Cage to Falcon and the Winter Soldier. WOOF. That is quite a difference in quality!!
SHIELD is quite a long haul of a show, but definitely worth it. And anyone who gets put off by the first few episodes of s1 needs to be strapped in until the turn. Your compliance will be rewarded.
@@jessaandalexwatch idk if its ignorant I thinks it's more of a curiosity. Losing your sight is a fear for alot aof ppl. Not 2 mention he can do alot of stuff without his sight
Just came here from your Stardust view... And I have to agree with you both, Charlie is quite a beautiful man. He's just so charming and charismatic. This is such a great show, I've dressed as Matt Murdock (the lawyer, not the vigilante) for Halloween for years now.
Ooh, also, fun fact: Despite that one's from Marvel and the other's DC, the chemical ooze that blinded young Matt Murdock as a child is (according to their creator) leaked down into the New York sewers and created the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
TMNT isn't DC, WB just worked out a deal to have them appear in Injustice 2. The comics were originally published by Mirage, and are currently published by IDW. The overall rights are owned by Nickelodeon/Paramount. Other than that, you're right. Daredevil was the direct inspiration for TMNT, and the original comics were actually much more violent and similar to DD in tone. You can see the inspiration in a lot of other ways too, like Stick/Splinter and the Hand/Foot clan.
There's a scene in the comics where Daredevil has to break into a prison, and he has to fight a knock-off Captain America to get in. He tells the guy he should just get out of the way, and maybe go to church and get right with God. The Dollar Store Cap replies "nah, I'm good with God," to which Matt says "if that were true, he wouldn't have sent the Devil." Matt then proceeds to beat the guy within an inch of his life.
This series was genuinely more enjoyable to me than anything else Marvel put out, and it still is debated if this is canon or not. I have always loved the more street level heroes, Spidey & DareDevil, Nightwing over in DC. This tone was perfect for the character and the casting was spot on.
I really liked a lot of the production behind these Netflix Marvel shows, particularly the look of S1 Jessica Jones. It seemed very fresh to me; the colors of the city at night really stood out, which I thought was cool. The writing was best in Daredevil, though, and the villain treatment there was AWESOME. I know writers often have a hard time doing superhero stuff, which was the case with the Iron Fist show, but the rest of them were good. Not immaculate, but most of the time they used the serial nature of Netflix correctly for the stories, as it was done with the comics. I think comic books fit this serial structure far better than they fit the movie structure. In the comics you can draw things out, shuffle in some side quests, and develop characters.
This isn’t a lawyer procedural though, they specifically didn’t want to go that route and you learn that quickly in the episodes that follow, the elements of lawyer/ court room drama disappear very quickly, at its core it is still a comic book action tv series.
Charlie is british. He was in LA long before this for pilots. He ended up spending time with fellow Brits Robert Pattinson, Tom Sturridge, Jamie Dornan, Andrew Garfield and Eddie Redmayne.
I am totally blind. And sighted people ask those type of curious questions all the time. most of us actually don’t mind them. We’d rather you ask questions and educate you then to sit silent and be awkward.
I want the Punisher to get a show. Do something really cool with him on a one man punishment spree. Iron Fist is a great character that deserves another shot at a better adaptation.
Not sure when this was recorded, but FWIW Disney gave up and is no longer calling it a reboot. This show (and, by extension, the rest of the Netflix stuff) is considered canon again. They could only back-peddle so far before they ran out of places to back-peddle to. Which is great if they can actually pull off the tone and quality of writing (especially of the first season of shows until they seemed to run out of steam halfway through Luke Cage). Here's hoping? Loved a lot of the Netflix stuff (not you, Iron Fist... okay, at least you tried in the second season).
Has anyone heard the gals mention anything about whether - or when - they will continue watching this show? I would love to "watch along", so I really hope they will - but I can't seem to find any info on the subject.
I'd like to see all the characters and shows return.. Iron Fist, well.. maybe not as much.. other than for completeness's sake and some of the other characters who appeared in that continuity, like Colleen Wing. But yeah, Finn Jones's performance was pretty underwhelming too, nm the writing issues. I will point out though, a major part of what did IF in was production scheduling issues. They had a deadline for when the first Defenders had to be finished by, one that was contractual I think? IF s1 had to be done before that, but was held up by accumulated delays from the preceding seasons of DD and JJ, but also because they bumped it back after Luke's appearance in JJ got a warm reception from audiences and they moved up the production of Luke Cage ahead of IF. Finn Jones also didn't manage to get in much training due to scheduling (maybe from GoT?), which obviously has repercussions when you're supposed to be portraying one of the best martial artists in the Marvel Universe..
Jessica Jones, Jessica Jones, Jessica Jones. The only stipulations being, it _has_ to be Krysten Ritter and Disney doesn't change a thing - if they don't want a serious tone, featuring a high [dys]functioning alcoholic with PTSD (and fair enough, that's not exactly on brand) then just don't make it. (i'd also watch the hell out of a brief-cameo-laden "Night Nurse" show and Rosario Dawson's already working for Disney anyway - just add an extra zero to her contract, job done :)
I'd happliy trade my eyesight for Matt's senses. He smells guns before you can draw, feels the air displacement coming from any weapon, bullet, or strike and can move accordingly to evade.( Cats also do this ) In grappling he can feel weak points and applies Judo/Akido moves off that better than any 5th degree blackbelt. Then ya add on hearing and smell for blocks, and you have a total sex-trafficker bone-breaking machine.
Wow…so, it’s not okay to assume a Japanese person can speak Chinese, but making fun of someone’s height is okay? And constantly objectifying a guy is cool (those “tiny little waist” comments)? I know these are hardly huge problems, but the hypocrisy on display here wasn’t exactly subtle.
Now this is a series I am looking forward to you continuing on the channel.

Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage were SUCH amazing shows! Would love to see all three come back.
You forgot the fourth series.
The Punisher.
What?
@@gaz-l621 I liked it, just not as much as those three...
@@gaz-l621 I think we're all better off forgetting that time Loras Tyrell got into fisting.
[I'm so sorry.]

Here just to vouch for Legion to both of you. The first two seasons are amazing, and the third is okay enough to not detract from them.
Fun fact; the actor who plays Foggy Nelson was also Fulton Reed in The Mighty Ducks movies. And he was in Freak The Mighty.
And the hunger games!
i would love, love, love to see you reacting to the whole show 🫶🏻 hope y’all continue it soon 😭
His main stuntman is also the stuntman for Deadpool. I know this because I trained with him once.
I'm really glad you guys are watching this series. 👍
Best vigilante crime superhero show ever
If Peter Parker were to tell Matt about what happened to him, at least Matt would know he was telling the truth.
I'm so excited to watch this reaction. Don't recall if you guys have watch agents of shield but I know you'll love it 😊
Really excited for this series it's my favorite Marvel show (along with Agents of Shield)
SHIELD is quite a long haul of a show, but definitely worth it. And anyone who gets put off by the first few episodes of s1 needs to be strapped in until the turn.
Your compliance will be rewarded.
Actually i have a blind roomate and he gets asked that shit atleast once a week when he goes out. You would be surprised.
I’m sure!! People are very ignorant.

it is canon now. They started saying so shortly before Echo came out
In the comics, Matt Murdock had alot of guilt from his "nightly activities", and often went to Confession to deal with that guilt.
I really liked a lot of the production behind these Netflix Marvel shows, particularly the look of S1 Jessica Jones. It seemed very fresh to me; the colors of the city at night really stood out, which I thought was cool. The writing was best in Daredevil, though, and the villain treatment there was AWESOME.

Well now I'm gonna sub for you and this show!
A medical procedural based on Claire setting up a hero clinic? Call it Night Nurse and rake in the money
This isn’t a lawyer procedural though, they specifically didn’t want to go that route and you learn that quickly in the episodes that follow, the elements of lawyer/ court room drama disappear very quickly, at its core it is still a comic book action tv series.
I would actually love to see Jessica Jones in season two of the Hawkeye series.
Yes!!! Please continue covering this for the Chanel

You'll be very happy to know that they actually did that
@@gretchenmeinzen9962 no i mean a new show on disney plus lol. That was their question. What netflix characters should be brought back for a show
Well, they are bringing Bernthal back in Born Again as Frank, so...hopefully they'll eventually get back around to giving him his own series again
Daredevil is soo good
Came for the Bridgerton reactions, staying for Daredevil

Netflix's DD season1 was the very best the MCU ever did. Better than Endgame, better than Iron Man 1. Jessica Jones S1 is a close second.
