Grabbing this for a review over the weekend. I've already had a read through, and I don't think there's any major issues at first glance. My only initial thought is that the casting section could do with an expansion if the information is out there - when did casting itself start, is there any information on the casting calls etc? Were any other actors/actresses considered? What did the successful actors think of their new roles? Anything like that, as at the moment it rather reads as if it's a bullet pointed list with the line breaks removed. But of course if the information isn't out there, then it'll do.

Hey Miyagawa, thanks for this. There is an expanded form of the casting section for the starring cast, but that is already at the series article since it applies to the whole series, not just this season, and we try to avoid duplicating information across articles where possible. And, unfortunately, the more season-specific casting information is pretty limited, since Netflix doesn't announce mcu about casting or the guest stars, even recurring ones, and it has even been difficult to just find a third-party source to confirm many of their inclusions in the season. If this was a network show we would probably have some more details as to when actors joined, etc., but it just didn't turn out that way. It is far from the best casting section, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to improve it much. - adamstom97 (talk) 11:39, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Sorry, got completely distracted as per usual. Here's the review (btw, I'm content with the casting section per your points above, I've been working on multi season series for far too long and hopefully you'll have that trouble with Jessica Jones in several years time!).

Episodes: "Cage, having not known that the woman was married, confronts her about it, and when she goes to her husband, he attacks Cage with a group." You kinda lost me in the middle there. Is he confronting Jessica or the married woman? I think you mean the married woman, but it took a minute to comprehend that.

Filming: Link Brian Michael Bendis

Marketing: Link David W. Mack.

Actually, that's the lot. I couldn't find many issues with this at all. You know, other than David Tennant not getting nominated at the Golden Globes/Emmys! I just hope that at the end of season two there will be a post it on Jessica's fridge that just reads "Smile Jessica" and the twist will be that the entire ending of AKA Smile will somehow be a false memory implanted en mass by Kilgrave. :) Anyway, good job on this. Send me a ping when you've made those couple of edits and I'll come back and promote. Miyagawa (talk) 18:21, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

 Done, done, and done! Thanks for the review Miyagawa. Definitely a travesty that Tennant didn't get nominations, much like D'Onofrio for the first season of Daredevil as Fisk. And that would be some twist with Kilgrave. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 19:50, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

Great, happy to promote. A really good read. Miyagawa (talk) 19:54, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
