I also really appreciate Jeri. I remember thinking, "this is how roles for women should be written - where you could substitute a man into the role and there would literally be no difference." (Obviously, that's not a universal thing; some stories are inherently gendered, but hers isn't. I like that.) And then I found out her comics counterpart was a dude. :D
But seriously, all that characters are fabulously written. (Well, the socially awkward codependent twins are... whatever they are.) There's one scene in the whole show where I was like "This feels a bit forced". (It was related to the socially awkward codependent twins!) Jeri does have a very traditionally masculine role and no one turns a hair, and I love that she is a morally grey character whose moral greyness is handled appropriately.
I also love how important and real and perfect Trish and Jessica's relationship is. Just... loooove. Is the Luke Cage show out yet???
I am like two episodes from the end and my only qualm is the scene with Malcolm in the hospital because my heart literally lept into my mouth but I will try to avoid the spoilerz other than that. I feel like more could have been done there? But it was overall better than it could have been. Just. I...right now, a little too real? That scene.

That is all
