“Daredevil and Jessica Jones: One of these things is not like the other. You’d expect there to be a shared mentality between these two shows as far as action is concerned; they’re Marvel’s first two moves in the ever-expanding Netflix sandbox, and the building blocks of their “street-level” comic book brand, which will continue building with Luke Cage and Iron Fist until it’s time forThe Defenders. Basically, we’re talking the gritty and depressing version of The Avengers, and while Daredevil and Jessica Jones share grimy, smaller-scale qualities in common, the former is more inclined toward action while the latter boasts a roundly procedural focus by comparison.” (Via Paste Magazine.)
