Was the whole 'my mom and dad made me into a test subject and I never learned how to be good' thing always part of Purple's backstory? I remember him having speeches like his 'I have to always watch what I say because I can't turn this power off' thing but I don't remember that.

No his original origin story was Croatian physician turned spy falling in a chemical vat turning purple and abusing his new power

Aaah yea, I knew he fell into the purple vat, because comics love vats of chemicals, but forgot if he was a lab rat first or not. Well I dig the new backstory, just enough 'oh, ok yea that sucks' to make him human while in no way being even close to enough to justify the whole sociopath with god like powers thing.

I really liked the undercurrent where Kilgrave is really good at manipulating people to do what he wants even without his power

I love the little insertions of just kinda weird lunacy in with his psychopath poo poo. Tennant does such a great job of selling 'comic book insane' that it works perfectly.

1x06 And like my favorite part of it is that in his first conversation with the guy there's one point where you can see him clearly get super annoyed, and he opens his mouth about to say something to make the guy just give him the house and go kill himself or whatever, but then changes his mind and shows him the money. It's his instinct to just make people do what he wants, but for some reason it was just SO important to him that he get this house the "legal" way.

oh poo poo Rubin, you're so dead, admitting you love Jessica to the man with crazy mind control powers and an obsession with her

Also, i love how Kilgraves mind control is actually better than Loki's, because Loki's is broken with a bonk on the head, Kilgraves just has to wear off

Well, remember she tracked him down for a reason, and it wasn't because of that lady's husband. Presumably she was guilty and tracked him down (this isn't factoring in later episodes btw, I'm only a few ahead of you).

I have literally no idea why they didn't give someone the job of (1x10) taking the single tape containing irrevocable proof of Kilgrave's abilities in case he sent someone to destroy the place.

General thought, up to 1x12: Seriously, has no one thought of maybe earplugs plus or minus a respirator? Also, Jessica could have told Kilgrave to release Hope to "right some wrongs," maybe done a few more heroic things, and then ripped his vocal cords out. Really, though, I'm enjoying the hell out of this, though to say the tone is uneven is an understatement.

Both just say "2016" but my guess is S2 of Daredevil first, alternate it a little. Also, filming began on DD2 in July and LC in September.

Yea, safe assumption there.

Jesus gently caress 1x10 loving Emma. I guess its understandable that she's freaked out that her brother was killed, but holy poo poo how to make things way worse. Maybe if you weren't such a psycho to begin with your brother would be still alive

Yea, I hoping Coulter's part is going to be something critics point out and Marvel sees this and uses Luke Cage more than just in the Netflix shows.

That (episode 2 or 3) buzzsaw thing was dumb. He's a barkeep, he's not rich. Aren't there cheaper ways to demonstrate that you can't get hurt? Use a hammer! A knife! A cigarette lighter!

1x05: as meet cutes go attempting to kill Trish while mind controlled is up there for novelty. I really dug the flashback of Jessica pre-Kilgraeve that ended with her talking to Trish about the junkie friend/spy. It was on the nose, but in a good way.

Also, there is a lot of sex having going on, I mean, drat.
