@auspice I'm 2/3 of the way through and so far agree that it's at least on par with the first season of Jessica Jones. My only complaints are that some of the symbolism is groan worthy in your face (looking at you crown painting shots) and the music isn't near as effective as the 1st season.
From what I have seen currently it is the only Marvel show that has had the second season be better than the first.
I totally agree on the music front.
The first season focused on hip hop, which is Luke's genre of choice and it is what he grooves to. That's why it fit so well.
This season chose the music of Harlem and of Jamaica. I understand why. We got jazz. We got R&B. We got the traditional and modern music of the island. Hell, we even got some southern blues (fitting for Mariah since it's what her family came up from). But because it's not Luke's music, the cadence was off.
In the later episodes as we got back to hip hop (oh, 7th Chamber, when you came in....), everything clicked.
