13 episodes is too long?

Daredevil's problem was the finale was very good rather than excellent. It built like a novel instead of a standard TV show, and the last episode was less fireworks than resolution.

What?

The final episode of Daredevil was basically the formula for the third act of a Marvel film. There was a huge gap in style between the other episodes and that one.

That's not really their concern. Especially considering the ratings Daredevil pulled in, an Amazon Video drama isn't going to get in their way.

It highlights an (earned) arrogance on their part though, which is all I'm saying. Amazon isn't on Netflix's level yet (they don't have anywhere near the same amount of original series and their subscriber base is quite a bit smaller), but Transparent has certainly proven that they can dominate the conversation under the right circumstances. Will Man in the High Castle prove to be such a success? Only time will tell, but it says a lot about Netflix's current position that they're choosing to go head to head with their competitor's highest profile series to date (and with an IP that is completely unknown to the general public, to boot).

she looks very JJ in those first two stills.

Ritter is probably gonna be great but I can't stop imagining Tatiana Maslany being the perfect Jessica.

Stop it, anaron. I need to forget about that.

It's bad enough that Viggo Mortensen wasn't cast as Strange.

Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
Ah cool. Seems like they're sticking pretty close to the comics where they can.

Mind you, there's been no indication that Patsy Walker will have the Hellcat identity on the show. I wouldn't expect it, personally.

Well Jessica's super hero past is important to her character so it would make sense to still have a friend who is one.

Perhaps. But given the MCU's extremely sparse population of superheroes and history of public superhuman activity in general, it seems like a stretch for a public figure to have a superhero career that's gone unmentioned until now. All the more so if she's wearing an ostentatious cat costume.
