I am ready for Agent Locke!

And why would I want them?
Do I need to finish JJ first? I liked that show a lot at first, then it went off the rails and never watched the last 3-4 episodes lol
Loved Luke Cage's character though.

Like Daredevil and Jessica Jones, the first season of each show is pretty much self-contained. There are small links between them, but you're not missing much.

They should just stop doing 13 episode seasons.

Whoa didn't realise this was out so soon! Will watch Jessica Jones this week then 
I thought this about Daredevil. Season 2 was a slog after the Punisher stuff.

Is there any Netflix show that hasn't outstayed its welcome over the required amount of episodes? OITNB is the only one I can think of. I was more forgiving of Daredevil S2 than most, but damn Defenders may be all the tighter for having six installments.
Awesome OT, mate!
Strapping myself onto the Cage train, baby! Now exiting the station!
Daredevil Season 1.
Better Call Saul? Although that probably can't be categorised as a straight Netflix show.

I need to watch Narcos...
I wonder if we'll get any cameos this season. They're inching closer to Defenders. There's a shot of Luke entering a church in the trailer, so here's hoping they get the awesome Priest from Daredevil back. Secret best character with the best line in the series;

I continue to remain puzzled as to why they advertise that show as a "Netflix Original Series".
It is outside of the US basically.
assuming youre from somewhere other than the us, netflix labels shows they have foreign distribution rights over as originals
for example in the us, peaky blinders gets labeled as a netflix original iirc.
as far as the show, im expecting it to have the usual marvel netflix show flaws. not really a fan of mike colter's acting and not expecting much from the action. the setting is interesting, hopefully the plot wont quite spin its wheels into jessica jones territory. mahershala ali will probably end up being the best thing about the show, looking forward to seeing him.
That's the reason why his daughter becomes the future Captain America.
And I'm ready for some fiddle faddle! Really liked Coulter in Jessica Jones.

I think the 13 episodes thing might've been part of the deal, unfortunately.
Ah, interesting! Thanks, guys! I'm British so that would explain it. Man, that's been bugging me for ages.
Just be glad it's not 22 episodes.

To be Coulson'd / Avenged later when they all come together. Or Defended. We'll see.
Why stop at 22?!
I was surprised how Flash and Supergirl kept me entertained all the way through. Probably because they don't have episodes anywhere as good as DD and JJ had. The lack of peaks makes the valleys more tolerable.

This really is such a perfect time for a Luke Cage television show, and Marvel just fell into it. Its not like they were making Iron Man in 2008 knowing that Black Lives Matter would be such a big movement in 2014. They were shopping around Luke Cage / the wider Defenders deal back in 2013.
I think its going to be great. Can't wait to watch

The hoodie is a reference to Trayvon Martin, according to Colter. They won't go into it directly, but there's going to be references.
You need to watch Daredevil and Jessica Jones regardless. But no I wouldnt say you cant watch this one without those two though Luke appeared in many Jessica Jones episodes.
