Jessica Jones (2015-present)

Proving that the massive critical success of Daredevil wasn’t a fluke, Jessica Jones brings the title character to live action for the first time with Krysten Ritter as the hero-turned-private-detective. Taking a noir approach to the Alias comic books that starred Jones — so named for her Alias Detective Agency — the show focuses in on the hero’s quest to take down a dark figure from her past (David Tennant). Along the way, she finds kinship with another lost soul in Mike Colter’s Luke Cage, also a Marvel hero who is set to headline his own Netflix series. Just as extreme and shocking as Daredevil, Jessica Jones is bold, fresh storytelling from Marvel Studios and marks its first project to center on a modern-day woman. The writing and Ritter’s performance don’t disappoint, and while the series has not been officially renewed for season 2, the enthusiastic response from fans and critics means that it’s probably inevitable.
