The story
Why watch Marvel's Jessica Jones?
Jessica Jones works as a private investigator in New York, where superhuman strength does little to simplify a damaged personal life. Krysten Ritter leads a series built around investigation, survival and the difficult work of trusting other people.
The detective format gives you a reason to question what each person knows and what they are holding back. Jessica's ability can change a confrontation, but it cannot answer every question a case raises. Watch the boundaries she sets with clients and friends as closely as the clues she follows.

A starting point
Start with season one for Jessica's introduction. The other individual hero series are optional browsing, not prerequisites for meeting her.
Story & release
Where it fits
Follow Jessica's three seasons in order. The Defenders offers a team-up with other New York heroes, while this series keeps its attention on Jessica's own work and relationships. This guide avoids revealing the answers to the investigations.
