VIGILANTE QUARTET Marvel’s The Defenders, Netflix
A LITTLE humdrum compared to the likes of Avengers Assemble, perhaps, but this street-level superhero series — which brings together Jessica Jones, Daredevil, Luke Cage and Iron Fist — has spark because of its two most conflicted characters, Jones and Daredevil.
