    So Punisher must be late November, early December.

    Stranger Things S2 is Halloween so I think Neflix would want a least a month in between their big profile shows so maybe Punisher is, like, Christmas or something.

    The assumption is that Daredevil Season 3 will take the Sept/Oct "Luke Cage" slot (as it is confirmed to be filming this year after Defenders wraps since that's the same crew). Presumably Punisher will be, as you speculated, Nob/Dec, giving them room for Stranger Things S2 in Oct.

    I dunno. Daredevil Season 2 dropped two weeks after House of Cards Season 4. So, it's not like Netflix really cared that much about not putting marquee original content closely together.

    Actually, isn't Punisher scheduled for this year? So it'll actually be Defenders in august, Stranger Things in Oct, Punisher in Nov/Dec, Jessica Jones in March, Daredevil in Sept, etc.

    And, yeah, I don;t think netflix spaces their stuff out too much- they're just spacing out similar stuff (so a space between Marvel shows wouldn't necessarily affect Stranger Things or House of Cards, etc).

    Good point. Let's keep the overall Netflix schedule discussion to the Defenders thread, and the JJ-specific stuff here.

    Janet Mcteer joins the cast in an undisclosed, but significant, role for season 2 that "will reportedly have an enormous impact on Jessica’s life".

    She doesn't fit any description from the comics. So I guess she's a new character.

    I'm getting ready to watch JJ for the first time this weekend, after a re-watch of the first two seasons of Daredevil and the one of Luke Cage.

    Consensus seems to be that it's a good one. I love Daredevil. I like Luke Cage. I flushed Iron Fist after two abysmal episodes.

    Curious to see where this falls in.

    For us, we liked this just ever so slightly better than Daredevil S1. It's just a very different kind of story... sort of.

    Oh wow. To beat either season of Daredevil, this would need to be really something. Given that we disagree on many comic-based media productions, I'll temper enthusiasm a bit. :p

    I think the first half of JJ is stronger than DD S1 and definitely better than DD S2.5. DD S2.0 probably edges it out but, on the whole, I also enjoyed JJ more than DD. And it has much better pacing (and a greater villain) than Cage.

    But... Daredevil S2 was hella-uneven and saved only by some of the Stick/Matt stuff and all of The Punisher stuff...

    We still don't know what that giant (literal) plot hole is, although we may find out in The Defenders...

    I barely even remember the second half of DD S2. What was the plothole?

    Remember the giant LITERAL hole in the middle of a construction site in Manhattan that they were all immediately chased off by The Hand from?

    I thought Jessica Jones was the most entertaining of all the season one Marvel Netflix series because it was a different story from most super hero series. Jessica Jones is a victim of mental and physical rape and therefore is suffering from PTSD. Additionally, it's not a story of "I have to save the city" type of thing. It's a more personal story with an actual villain. I love how the story develops the villain through his victims.

    I found DDS1 to be more enjoyable, but JJ to be better. Both rank higher than DDS2 and Luke Cage. And I'm suffering through IF.

    My travel schedule has been hell this year, so we're not even through Luke Cage, let alone Iron Fist yet...

    Two episodes into Jessica Jones. It's okay, at best. I don't like it as much as Cage, and certainly not close to either season of Daredevil.

    Hoping it gets better?

    It gets a lot better, I thought JJ started off a little slow as well.

    Once Kilgrave actually starts showing up, it definitely kicks up a few notches.
