Season 4 is her adventuring in space, but every episode just focusing on a legal case she happens to fall in to along the way, culminating in the biggest case of her life against the Living Tribunal just so she can go around in season 5 calling herself a Space Lawyer.

Oh no!😱

No, the TV tie in with Avengers: Civil War is She-Hulk on the run from registration, coming into town, defending that weeks superpowered character from unjust prosecution, then leaving before the pro-reg forces can catch up with her (as sad piano music plays). Jennifer Walters: Attorney at Large.

Oh I know, that's why I was suggesting it. I was tempted to add in that bit about one of the cases resting on a witness testimony about her having the biggest bust in the universe. I wonder would a She-Hulk tv show break the fourth wall often? And what would happen if she met Deadpool in that case?

Variety's Maureen Ryan tweeted that she really liked it, for what that's worth. Don't think any other professional TV critics have weighed in yet.

I love how they're basically setting it up as a superhero-themed horror story. Tennant already looks amazing and you only even see him for like a second.

I get the sense that CBR leaked it early since quality-wise it looked like they had captured it from a Netflix stream. It'll probably be up shortly on the official channel.

It reminded me of that issue of Neil Gaiman's Sandman where a telepath walks into a diner and makes everyone in there do really hosed up stuff for an entire day before making them all kill themselves/each other horribly.

Oh wow, finally an adaptation of Naoki Urasawa's Monster.

But seriously, that trailer makes it seem like it's all about Kilgrave's wacky shenanigans. I guess they just wanted a strong hook, because I doubt it's going to fill 13 hours.

ANIME IS FOR ADULTS
Watching this for David Tennant, but the trailer definitely looks good. I really like the idea of exploring a superhero who failed, gave up and is now redeeming herself on a small scale by saving average people.

Also great to have a second MCU series that doesn't involve saving the world/universe every movie. Even Agents of SHIELD fell into the trap of constantly upping the stakes last season.

Laboriously explain the show and it's characters, provide thorough episode synopses, and inform that if you're interested you should consider watching the show, no pressure though.

Kilgrave in the comics once ordered everyone in a busy restaurant to stop breathing because the sound was disturbing him while he ate. I would say that matter of factness is more hosed up than a gibbering nut torturing people because he can.

She seems hollowed-out, not bored, which is what her character is supposed to be. In addition look at her face in the more emotional scenes such as the police station, that's not bored.

Not sure where you are getting cheap production either.

That's debatable, but either way there's a big difference between someone mentioning that a thing happened (I forget whether or not they even depicted that) and having an entire chapter devoted to showing how Dr. Destiny completely loving destroyed these people. Alias never even comes close to being as messed up as that scene in Sandman IMO.
