2024-10-28 20:54:12 +0000 UTCHoly fucking shit this goddamn fucking show, excuse the language. Always keeps you on your toes. I was so happy that Clemons was finally on our side, only for Simpson to do THAT. Then Wendy too, what the heck, didn't expect so much in just one episode. I do feel bad for Robyn still. Like yea she's clearly insane in some kind of way but I don't think anyone deserves having their family member taken from them for no good reason. Then Hope, what the fuck. Man this show is messing me up. I keep telling myself I'll watch the episodes more quickly after each other, but it turns out with the intensity of this, I need a bunch of time to recover before I feel like continuing......

2024-10-28 20:05:21 +0000 UTCSimpson somewhere in his subconscious: "Why oh why didn't I take the BLUE pill?" That was fucked up. Doc told him one red pill and he had, what, 3? Never get high on your own supply. It always leads to bad shit. Simpson must have been one of those guys with the "Give war a chance" bumper stickers. On the bright side, Jerry doesn't have to worry about losing her money. But she managed to be so selfish that she lost everything that actually matters. The ending, as tragic as it was, reminded me of two particular things the Green Goblin said and Kilgrave just proves him right. 1. "The one thing they love more than a hero is to see a hero fail, fall, die trying. In spite of everything you've done for them, eventually they will hate you." - All it took was one grieving person to rally some people together to go attack Jessica. They didn't know the whole story, they didn't have all the facts, all they knew was this person blamed someone and they all followed blindly. 2. "This is why only fools are heroes - because you never know when some lunatic will come along with a sadistic choice. Let die the woman you love or suffer the little children. Make your choice and see how a hero is rewarded!" - Save Hope or save her attackers. Either way it's a losing situation. Save Hope then she'll have to live with the knowledge she let four people die. Save those four people and they'll still look at Jessica as the person that didn't do enough despite the fact Hope made her own choice. How dare she not be able to save everyone? Still blinking tears away writing this after Hope's death. Such a tragic shame.

2024-08-04 11:31:45 +0000 UTCJeri is terrible, BUT...Wendy is kind of a prime example of FAFO. Blackmailing someone who you KNOW to be terrible is a bit like taking all the doors off your house...unwise and dangerous. She had already been threatened by Jessica...and Jeri is a lawyer with lots of money, I'm sure she could have hired someone with fewer morals than Jessica to end her Wendy problem without much trouble. So...while she certainly didn't deserve to end the way she did, she wasn't exactly an innocent. She also knew what Jeri had done and SHOULD have reported her for it long ago. As long as she was reaping the financial and social benefits of it, she didn't feel the need to...but then when she wasn't, she chose to use the info to try to a) hurt Jeri (I mean...fair...but doesn't make her GOOD) and b) secure her own future through tainted means. Honestly, she may have been doing her clinic work as a way to assuage some the guilt from being knowingly involved with someone so terrible...so maybe even her "good" isn't so good. IDK. I think the closest thing the show has to a truly "good" person is Trish.

2024-08-04 11:29:56 +0000 UTCI mean... governments in OUR world have long chased every possible way to make service members "super"...the Nazis (and others) gave soldiers methamphetamine (if you want a WILD story, do a youtube search for The Fat Electrician and Aimo Koivunen to hear the story of a Finnish soldier who somehow survived an insane amount of meth) If you can think it, odds are, some government has already tried it...

2024-08-04 11:18:22 +0000 UTCI think it is more like when you get robbed for the first time. It is traumatic no matter what they take.

2024-08-04 05:09:21 +0000 UTCI felt that Simpson's behavior was because he was always more hardcore against Kilgrave because of what he made him do and here it went extreme because he was taking more of that medication than the doctor told him to. He's, like, amplified erratic.

2024-08-04 04:52:53 +0000 UTCIf I have one little nitpicky thing about this show, it's--as Robyn calls him--Trendy Guy. Kilgrave made him give up his coat. That's it. Other people were violated, turned into murderers, physically traumatized, hooked on drugs, forced to abandon their children. But he lost a coat. And he goes up with Robyn to throw down with Jessica about that? He's all vocal at the meeting: "Yeah. That bitch." Or whatever. I mean, the fact that he keeps going to the support group is...well, just silly. Over a coat. I mean, it must have been one bad-ass motherfucking coat. Or he had like a diamond ring in the pocket, or something. Or drugs...for the child he was forced to abandon. But...other than that poorly written pile of dogshit...what a spectacular episode. The moment with Hope always rips my heart out. I've become quite attached to the actress, as well, who is one of the main characters (and one of my personal favorites) on another superhero (HA!) show called 'The Boys', which is my current favorite show on all of televisiondom. I would really be curious for you to check it out. It's full of extremely dark humor, gratuitous violence, is overall fucked up, and has some one of the worst spandex clad assholes you'll ever meet. But it's also one of the best written/acted/directed/produced shows out there (in my not so humble opinion). Anyway, I don't usually try to get reactors to react to certain things--I find it's best if they follow their own groove--but if you ever want to give it a try, I'm totally in.

2024-08-04 01:17:50 +0000 UTCSimpson change is shocking but inevitable. We see how this show takes these people with horrible trauma and shows how it effects them in different ways. Simpson is now a villain. Becoming what he has been fighting this whole season by killing a good innocent man just for a chance to kill an evil one. Fun fact he is a comicbook character as well.

2024-08-03 23:45:08 +0000 UTCEvery time Jessica gets close, someone who does not understand Killgrave comes in and ruins it. Way to go Robyn. Maybe Robyn will join the support group now.

2024-08-03 21:56:38 +0000 UTCGod, this show is even more fucked than I remembered. 😅 Very good stuff though! And it's a lot of fun to watch your reaction because you're clearly having a great time watching this. I'd guess this is your favourite out of the ABC/Netflix Marvel shows, so far.

2024-08-03 21:09:33 +0000 UTCSimpson's pills and doctor make me think of all the other MCU doctors who have chassed super soldier-like serums. In a world where a Captain America existed and as a research scientist knowing it was from an experimental drug makes me think a lot of money has been thrown at them to either replicate it or make something different. And even Luke said he was an experiment too. And we still don't know where Jessica got her powers. And Matt's came from some chemical that blinded him. Just a strange world of the MCU. Where in ours most of these experiments ans chemicals would just give us cancer.
