@velvetthunder I could not agree more!
@velvetthunder Just finished binge-watching this season and I totally agree with you. At the end it felt to me like the whole season was long warm up for the next thins to come. Still they managed to shake up the status quo, they told a lot of story in this season but yeah it could have been done in 9 or 10 episodes and I just feel like this season didn't have a real focus.

It's an awkward one. On the one hand, this was an absolutely necessary story to tell. On the other, it went on for far too long.
Could easily have told the same story over, say, 9 or 10 episodes and have the last three dealing with the aftermath of Playland with some other threat such as a corrupted Trish/Hellcat taking the true big bad status and resolving Jessica/Trish before the season ended by having Jessica forced to save Trish from herself or something and becoming the true team they should be. Instead that's obviously going to be stretched out over 13 episodes as well and will probably suffer the same fate.
As other people have stated, Jeri's storyline was actually the most compelling. It was also the most inconsequential. Literally at no point does Jeri's plot have any affect on the main plot. Of course Kilgrave returned the way that most of us expected to but even as mental demons he's still the most magnetic presence on the show.
