Jessica Jones AKA Crush Syndrome (2015–2019) watch online HD

Even though we still aren't seeing too much of him, David Tennant is terrifying as Kilgrave. His presence is keenly felt looming over the entire episode, even thought he isn't there for long. As Jessica begins to investigate him, we see what she was talking about when she says that she's a natural at investigation; she has some very clever ways of obtaining information.

The dry humour from last episode persisted here. While there wasn't a whole lot of action, the episode was packed with excellent character development, and the investigation kept a compelling sense of urgency. The reveal at the end seemed a bit silly, but I'm sure it will be used in very cool ways later on.

Overall, a great development episode that sets up loads of story lines that seem to be going to very promising and interesting places.

This episode was quite slow and didn't seem to accomplish much, considering it was almost an hour long. There was a lot of character development surrounding Jessica Jones and Luke Cage, and in particular their relationship in the show. It was very slowly building on the case surrounding Hope, but even though that was the focus of the episode, it didn't really go very far. I'm starting to wonder if 55 minutes is slightly to long for this series, as this episode was full of scenes (mostly involving Jessica's neighbours) that held no point and felt very forced.

The slightly disconcerting attempts at humour continued in this episode, thoroughly convincing me that humour in this series isn't a good idea - at least, if it doesn't get better.

Kilgrave continued to be teased, and honestly he looks utterly terrifying. He is mostly the only reason I'm continuing this show (aside from general curiosity for the intriguing plot), and this episode had a very convincing, if brief, tease of his character.

Some improvement over Episode One, with a little progression the main investigation. Still taking time to develop the characters and fix that damn door!

This episode continues on from the great cliffhanger that the first episode had. Not only do we get to see the trauma felt by Hope, but also the aftermath that other Kilgrave victims had, one being particularly painful to watch. We also get a great furthering of Luke and Jessica's relationship while also getting a much better look at Kilgrave.

Let's start with the parts of this episode that were truly hard to watch...but it still works for this episode. Watching Hope recover from what happened in the pilot episode and subsequently blame Jessica was powerful especially to see Jessica sort of realize that it is her fault that this happened to Hope. The professor who operated on Kilgrave was also kind of rough but the worse part was no doubt the bus driver who was forced to give both of his kidneys to Kilgrave. Everything that happened to him, being left in a ditch afterwards, having a stroke, being on dialysis and begging for death is just unbearably depressing and truly made me hate Kilgrave. The best part of this is that we haven't actually seen Kilgrave just the effect he has had on people.

We did see him do something this episode and it was truly entertaining. I liked how we never actually see him in full but he is still being a snobby, demeaning asshole. But, it's David freaking Tennant, so it's kind of hard not to somewhat like him.

We also get a look into Jessica and Luke's relationship. It started out being sort of strained as Luke found out that Jessica was looking into him. The bar fight is awesome as we see Luke's abilities as well as Jessica powers being in full view too. The fact that Luke and Jessica might be candid with each other is going to do wonders with these two great characters with perfect chemistry.

The writing, especially for dialogue is also continuing to be top notch. Jessica's sarcastic remarks continue to be classic and the plot is evolving at a natural pace that might be slow but still works well for a detective show.

I will say that inclusion of Robyn in this episode was really annoying. Ruben is ok as he is sort of a hapless yuppy but Robyn is just some controlling wack-a-doo. I really hope she doesn't do much in this show.

+ Luke/Jessica +KIlgrave and those he hurts + Writing/Dialogue - Robyn

Final Score: 8.8/10
