    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Solid first episode. I wish Krysten Ritter was just a tad bit sexier.

    Are you being sarcastic? I've always dug her vibe.

    Carrie Anne Moss totally looks like Robin Wright in this role.

    Why does she need to be sexy?

    This show does such a great job of dealing with things like PTSD, abuse, consent, etc. And agreed. Kilgrave is terrifying. I didn't know David Tennant was capable of being that menacing. Jeez.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    I know this is petty, but I'm 18 minutes into episode 1 and you gotta be out of your freaking mind.

    She's got a sour look on her face throughout the entire show.

    I'm just asking for a tad bit sexier.

    It's refreshing not to have an origin story.

    I chuckled when her and Cage exchanged origins of their powers in two words.

    I burst out laughing at the first line of VO: "New York may be the city that never sleeps but it sure does sleep around. Not that I'm complaining. Cheaters are good for business."

    This over a visual showing a couple having sex and the sound of a camera clicking.

    Are they serious with this stuff? lol

    Watched the first two eps, fun so far. Tennant feels genuinely threatening and gets appropriately chilling buildup with all the human wreckage in his wake. Also fun to see the noir angle be at least as significant as all the superpowers. The voice over isn't terribly inspired as dialogue (it's hard to evince the classic hard-boiled patois without feeling anachronistic, I guess). Ritter is spot-on, but as for the whole sexy thing, its clearly not her job to be sexy in this. She's strung out, dealing with PTSD. Sexifying Black Widow makes a bit more sense, because her universe feels a little more absurd, and she's playing more into that Action Girl archetype.

    Ritter was plenty sexy in "Don't Trust the B." As was Dreama Walker. I miss that show.

    I posted this just shy of 4 in the morning, after dreaming about Kilgrave all night. He is scary as hell. I can't remember the last time I was this genuinely frightened by a fictional villain. I had to take today off from the show just to recover.

    Just got through with this show, and holy shit was an intense, emotional experience that was! Just really complexly incredible stuff. And add Kilgrave to the very short list of genuinely great MCU villains. The shows appear to definitely have a leg up on the movies in that regard so far.

    (That list, btw? Loki, Fisk, and Kilgrave. MAYBE Ronan, and MAYBE Ultron, but those are both pretty big maybes right now.)

    Had to take a break after the phone call in episode 6 to calm down someone with an abusive past who just started crying. This show gets too real sometimes with the domestic stuff.

    Needs the murder and stuff to keep it from being too intense haha.

    Appreciated that they went to the trouble of giving Kilgrave a sad backstory...

    Quit talking to dumb dumb blind folk. She might be distractingly too good looking. Maybe.

    I think she's gorgeous.

    But I also think this is probably the last Marvel property one should be complaining about lack of hotness in.

    I think she's pretty.

    Watched the first episode. Way better than Daredevil. I'll probably watch a few more.
