Jessica Jones (TV Series) A.K.A. I've Got the Blues (2015) User Reviews

The weakest episode.

[TouchTheGarlicProduction · 7/10 · 22 November 2015]

Even though Kilgrave wasn't in the episode, you could still feel the threat of him influencing everyone's actions, so that aspect worked out well. However, it shows that the show isn't as special without Kilgrave, making me worry about the quality of future seasons.

For example, Will's storyline. Without Kilgrave, I suddenly noticed that the whole thing with him and the pills and the government is a bit silly. We finally learn why Will has been acting strangely lately, and I'm not entirely satisfied. Not, mind you, because I think he's hiding something; it's just slightly lazy writing. Although, I will admit, the climax of that storyline here was pretty cool. But it ended with the annoyingly obvious overused trope of the heart monitor used to build false tension.

Despite a neat final moment and some great flashbacks to the early days of Trish and Jessica, I found this to be the weakest episode in the season.

Normal

This series has nothing new to offer. It gets boring.

Barely entertaining

[Tarx309 · 6/10 · 26 May 2016]

This was definitely the worst episode. A good portion felt entirely unnecessary, and a lot of it, like the entire episode, contributed nothing. Will's storyline was incredible pathetic - probably the worst idea for an episode this entire season. He's an incredibly obnoxious character at this point, and just lazily written. Trish was unnecessary and shouldn't have been included, and after all she was redundant as always. They attempted humour again (oh dear lord) and my gosh it fell flat.

Every scene involving the support group wasn't just bad; it was incredible laughable. Awful characters (Robyn in particular), and an awful storyline. The only reconciliation this episode had was some half tense moments, and some intriguing flashbacks. The flashbacks were great and it was very interesting seeing each one of them. Apart from that, there wasn't much to enjoy here. A Kilgrave-less episode was an awful idea.

Stretch It Out

[Hitchcoc · 6/10 · 31 July 2019]

I know that every one of these series has a weak episode that halts the plot and then allows it to move on. Here we have Jessica going from morgue to morgue to find the body of the guy who was burned. Then we have the perpetrator of that act, playing a key role. There are little scattered things here but no coherent movement from one to the next.

Stupid

"you will need blue pill to live" Jessica Jones didn't look for the blue pills on the street, instead she was trying CPR?

The whole season is also stupid. The whole thing is Jessica Jones not willing to kill a monster when she had all the chances, even though a whole bunch of people died during the process. Still doesn't want to kill him. So everyone's life doesn't matter as long as Jessica can make Kilgrave confess and thus make herself feel better from the release of Hope. Until Hope finally killed herself to force Jessica to kill Kilgrave. How selfish she is!

I'd call this love! Maybe Jessica did indeed fall in love with Kilgrave.

How? Why?

[doappel · 4/10 · 22 December 2017]

I rather enjoyed the show, till the last 3 episodes, which all have been cluster**** of crazy people making crazy decisions. The only good left in this episode is the chemistry between Trish and Jessica and the flashbacks. Pretty much everything else belongs in the bin of terrible writing.

Aimless

[Leofwine_draca · 4/10 · 29 April 2021]

This one ends on a slightly better note but is just as tedious as the previous episodes really. Of all the shows Marvel has puts its name to, this one stands out as the most bizarre and aimless.
