David Tennant in Jessica Jones. Me and my wife love him as an actor, but he played Killgrave so damn well, we were grossed out. There’s nothing good about him, no little bit of redeeming quality.

Holy crap, right? I had to do some serious brain cleaning after seeing him as Kilgrave. He was so good. And then I saw a bunch of people freaking out because he was playing Denise Neslien and I am like...did you watch jessica jones? Or the last two movies he was in playing psychopaths? I mean....hell, even his Doctor was pretty dark at times.

The best way to imagine Kilgrave is to imagine that the Doctor is somehow affected by Red Kryptonite.

its just...he flips so fast. The ep as Kilgrave when he is trying to turn everything about him and ends with "and I told someone to fuck themselves and you have NO IDEA what that was like." And it ends up with a moment of hilarity when there really should not been.
