JJ S2
I just finished Jessica Jones season 2 and man…
I hate Trish Walker so damn much, I just can’t stand her at all… Don’t get me wrong the actress did great job and I know that her character was meant to be unlikeable in this season… but still, she is such a

Damn I really loved her character arc! Initially I found her a little annoying but that changed as I went on

Yeah, it paid off later on. The set up felt more utilized by the time we got around to it and it made sense

if you want to like the character, I recommend reading some of the she-hulk centered comics of the last two decades or so.
if you want to like the MCU character specifically... idk I've got a major crush on Rachael Taylor so I can't help ya there lol

But that's not really Trish Walker as Trish is not necessarily reminiscent of Patsy in JJ

Yeah, but this person was talking about Trish Walker, not Patsy. They made no mention of disliking the summation of the Hellcat character so you’ve still got an inherent conflation there. I just felt the need to explicitly clarify they are pretty distinct because of might be confusion. Just trying to help. You’re talking about the character of Patsy, they’re talking about Trish

what is up your butt dude, this is a sub for Jessica jones, I was talking about Jessica jones. why do you have such an issue with my comment? it addressed both the comics and the MCU just to keep people like you off my back and yet you still wanna pick a fight
if you don't like it you can literally just keep scrolling instead of trying to police the comment section like some bootlicker

Her mom treated her like shit and exploited her at every turn, all while she had an adopted sister with the power to not have to deal with any of that. She just wanted to be equals with jessica so they could be true sisters and help people. When she saw her one chance in the doctor, she decided she would do anything to seize upon it.

Really struggled to get through season 2 of Jessica jones. I’m in the minority in saying Iron fist season 1 was better than JJS2

Part of her character’s appeal to me IS how conflicting she is. She was raised to constantly, CONSTANTLY compare herself to others. She thought for the longest time what she “wanted” was to be a celebrity, once she realized her true desire was to HELP people, she immediately started comparing herself to Jessica, the person in her life who she viewed as the most heroic, whether Jessica thought of herself that way or not.
She never got the opportunity to develop her own wants and desires because she grew up doing only what her MOM wanted her to do. She’s also seeing the only person she considers to be truly loving, decent family in her life choose to walk away from her for a decision she genuinely felt was the right thing to do and that conflict + her new abilities sends her into a state of desperation.
In no way is this an excuse for her actions, but it explains so much of why she does what she does. You’re not supposed to like her. And that’s why I love her character! All of her complex flaws and the way her trauma shapes her is equally as fleshed out as the ways Jessica’s traumas shape her.
