Krysten Ritter is reprising her role of the superhero-turned-private
eye, entering the Marvel Cinematic Universe by being cast in season two
of Marvel Television's Daredevil: Born Again.
Ritter starred as Jones in the eponymous Netflix series in the
mid-2010s. The series and actress generated considerable acclaim and
awards at the time and is considered a highlight during the Netflix era
of Marvel television.

Yay! I love me some Jessica Jones.

The series itself was incredibly disappointing. Season #1 was just OK.
Season #2 was, I thought, awful. I don't think I even bothered with
season #3.
I like Ritter. But that role/show was mostly a misfire.
Maybe Disney+ can do a better job with it than Netflix (it's hard not to
be better at shows than Netflix!). But I am skeptical that they can turn
this one around...

I've only watched three episodes so far, but I think it's one of their better
offerings.
The problem with a lot of the Disney Marvel shows for me is they think they're doing Shakespeare. Daredevil and Jessica Jones and especially The Punisher have always been darker but they like to spend a lot of time standing around talking to let you know how dark and important they are. That's often pretentious.
I thought one of the best of the Disney shows was Hawkeye because it was a lot more fun and Hawkeye was probably my least favorite character going into it. Hailee Steinfeld was great and Jeremy Renner got to do way more with
the character than in any of the movies.

Agreed. I liked "Hawkeye" quite a bit. I think there was recent rumors
of a season #2, but I believe they were quickly squashed, unfortunately.
I did not like the Netflix Marvel shows. The only one I thought was OK
was "The Defenders" (it was uneven at best, though), and that's the one
that real fans hate, apparently.

I saw some articles just recently where Renner said Disney offered a season

I liked the original Daredevil series and liked Jessica Jones but honestly,
I barely remember any of them now. The new Daredevil Born Again pissed me off for basically being only part 1. They spent too much time standing around talking and I'm kind of sick of Daredevil only fighting Kingpin all the time. I know that's often true in the comics too but in a TV show it's even more repetitive. The show should be called Kingpin Born Again for how many times he's been left for dead or dying only to come back stronger
again.
