There's a few reviews out there, and they are almost saying the same thing in that's it's totally awesome, and one of the best if not the best thing Marvel has done...and from the articles, Jessica, Luke Cage and Killgrave are all perfectly cast.
Looking forward to it.

Even as a Marvel guy these are characters I've never really been interested in and other than Luke Cage being a brick know little about them... excited about all the earlier reviews and the second trailer has me really, really excited to dive in.
Just got through the first two episodes, this show is really good.
Wont be back till it ends, but wasn't expecting the production to be this high a level after watching Daredevil which I thought was lacking on many levels.

Patsy Walker-Hellcat, also has some low level powers in the comics. can sense magic, and has weak forcefield from it.
This is why superheros should carry around zipties with them at all times. This show would have been over in episode 1 if she just came prepared to tie peoples hands.

I've just watched the first two at this point and am really enjoying it compared to Daredevil as well. The story is playing out really well and the actors are doing a great job. Very engaging so far.
Daredevil might get better with season 2. I can forgive them a weak-ish first attempt if their second is starting out this great.
Having Netflix take a Marvel Max approach to their shows would be fucking awesome.

Tennant is fucking awesome. I loved him in Blackpool and Cassanova even before Who, but this...yeah this is what he was meant for.

theres some. Overall, I would say its very low, or has no real impact. Generally positive.
The Lesbian attorney in this is a man in the comics. Feels a tiny bit forced. but, whatever, Moss kills it.
Luke Cage in the comics is more of a stereotype. huge black man from the Bronx created in 1972, who sounds exactly like he is. this Luke Cage is entirely nonthreatening, and doesn't push as many racial buttons of dating a girl next door white women.
Jessica herself is a bit less doe eyed, and more attractive.
Jessica in the comics.. Went to school with Spiderman, the same class. sat behind him. Had a crush on Peter. Parents were killed in the car accident, and she was in a coma for 6 months, powers start coming in slowly after. Peter never even knew her name. Super average. Trys to become a superhero with her powers. Jewel. Purple man comes along. In the comics, she "gets away" when he gets bored with her, and sends her off to kill the Avengers. Avengers deal with her about as well as they dealt with Ms. Marvel being raped.
