1. Explanations
It has, until now, remained a mystery how Jessica suddenly developed super strength after being the sole survivor of the car crash that killed her family. Through flashbacks and investigations into new mysteries, we get Jessica’s origin story and many questions answered.
2. Trish’s Crazy Spiral
Things get a little cray cray in Trish’s world. Not that life hasn’t already thrown her some curve balls, what with her controlling and entitled momager (Rebecca De Mornay) and being besties with a super powered alcoholic. We also get this jewel from Trish’s past!
3. The Men of Jessica Jones
Welcome to J.R. Ramirez as Oscar, Jessica’s hot new building super. There will be smolder, there will be sexiness involving paint.
Jessica’s neighbor Malcolm, played by Eka Darville, returns for Season 2. Now clean and sober, Malcolm works for Jessica’s PI business. We see a whole lot more of Malcolm this season.
4. Evidence Jeri has a Heart
Attorney, Jeri Hogarth, shows her human side in Season 2. Just for a minute though, so don’t blink y’all. Jeri reaches a new low by this season’s end.
5. The Return of David Tennant
“What? He’s dead. We saw him die.” Don’t worry, they’re not jumping the shark yet. I won’t explain, just watch.
6. It’s All About This Woman
Interesting revelations abound this season (like where Jess got that awesome leather jacket) and this mystery woman is the key to most of it.
Bonus: All 13 episodes were directed by women and Jessica Jones has been renewed for a third season.
