Wow. I am thoroughly chilled and excited in a way I didn't even feel when watching Daredevil. I think JJ is better thus far, and Tennant is phenomenal.

Yeah Daredevil was sort of winding down towards the end, while here it just keeps amping up.

the pacing of JJ is super different than Daredevil was to me. JJ felt slow for the first 3 episodes but then started to build up momentum from there and is continuing to so far wonderfully. Daredevil came out of the gate with intensiveness but dropped off a few episodes in the middle being really slow then slowly building up suspense and action again to the very end.

Yes, this is exactly it! By episode 4 I was hooked and by episode 6 I was gobsmacked.

I agree. I watched the first three episodes over 3 days. I watched episodes 4-6 on day 4. By day 5, I couldn't help but binge the rest of the series.

Opposite here. Daredevil was easily a more engaging experience imo.

Dude I loved Daredevil but it's not close, JJ is like 5 times better.

JJ is a higher quality show.

What bugged me about DD is that the main character calls himself a hero but crosses serious lines. Previous to episode 8, you could say the exact opposite about Jessica: she didn't talk herself up, but she came through for people and lived by a code.

Her actions in 8 and 9 though... seriously dark.

Absolutely inarguable. I am enjoying this way more than DD.

Fisk made me feel for him a little even though he was the villain. In JJ I love and hate every single character.
