So what happens?
After a tragic ending to her short-lived stint as a superhero, Jessica Jones (a superb Krysten Ritter) is trying to rebuild her personal life and career as a private detective.
Things take a turn for the worse though when a shadowy and manipulative figure from her past returns and threatens to wreak havoc across New York City.
If you love comic book films, but have felt a slight malaise from seeing an endless amount of aerial spaceship dogfights, orbs of mysterious power and massive cities being destroyed in the cinema, then this is 100% the show for you.
The characters in Jessica Jones are complex, the subject matter is dark and each performance is pitch perfect.
As the lead, Krysten Ritter is a hard-drinking, ass-kicking and no s**t-taking hero who perfectly balances the character's tough edge with her delicate past.
To celebrate the release of the next smash-hit show on Netflix, I caught up with two of the main actors, Jessica Jones herself - the effortlessly cool and talented Krysten Ritter (Breaking Bad and Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23) - and an actress whose ass-kicking credentials are second to none, the superb Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix, Memento).
They kindly did two things; 1) made me feel completely inadequate as a human being and 2) talked about Irish directors, TV binges and Guinness for lunch.
