She makes Jessica Jones look like a drunk despot and Super Girl, an uptight has-been. Quoting \u201cGoldilocks\u201d, \u201cthis one is just right!.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This super hero will fight for you and won&#8217;t always win, at first, but like the EveReady Bunny, she just keeps going and going and going.<\/p>\n<p>I enjoyed watching every episode. Each one features a well known guest artist. The writing; for the most part, is interesting enough to continue viewing and Natasha\u2019s je ne sais quoi method of acting saves every episode.<\/p>\n<p>If you like sarcastic crime\/ comedy-drama, you will enjoy this too.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>IMDb gave it an 8\/10.<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Rotten Tomatoes gave it a 99%.<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>The audience gave it an 80%.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>I gave it an 8.5 because some of the episodes were pretty lame; nonetheless, I enjoyed it overall.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Creator: Rian Johnson<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Writers: Wyatt Cain<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong>Directors: Rian Johnson<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Executive Producers: Rian Johnson, Nora and Lilla Zuckerman, Ram Bergman, Iain B.
