Netflix has canceled Jessica Jones, so it’s time for another Marvel-Netflix eulogy. Chris and Izzy brought two guests to dissect the first two seasons of this detective noir—Caitlin Galiz-Rowe (@CGRRRRRRRR) of @YourGeekyGalPal and Hannah Frank of @TalkingTropes. How did the show fare with a major female leading role with Krysten Ritter, and how did it depict mental health and trauma? Is the show nothing more than a display of white feminism? Who is to blame for the Twilightmovies?
