The Greater Good
House and the team take on the case of a woman who collapsed in the middle of a cooking class, and they soon learn she is a highly-renowned cancer researcher who recently gave up her entire career in order to pursue her own personal happiness. Though the team struggles to understand how the woman could give up saving lives for the sake of her own contentment, each grapple with the pursuit of happiness (or lack thereof) in their own lives. As the patient’s condition continues to worsen, so does Thirteen’s as she begins to suffer serious and life-threatening reactions to the experimental Huntington’s Disease clinical trial. Meanwhile, Cuddy attempts to make House’s life miserable for him in retaliation for his part in her own unhappiness.
From the bustling streets of New York City emerges a different kind of hero – one who's traded her superhero costume for a private investigator’s badge. Meet Jessica Jones, the lead character in Marvel’s critically acclaimed TV series 'Jessica Jones'. With its edgy storytelling, compelling characters, and masterful blend of crime drama and superhero action, this show is a must-add to your BetaSeries account.
The series follows the life of Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), a former superhero who has hung up her cape due to a tragic incident. Haunted by her past and grappling with PTSD, she now leads a quiet life as a private investigator. However, when people with remarkable abilities start cropping up in her cases and an old nemesis resurfaces, she is compelled to confront her past and use her powers for good once again.
What sets 'Jessica Jones' apart from other superhero series is its deep dive into more mature themes such as trauma, power dynamics, consent and recovery. It brings humanity to its superhuman characters through their personal struggles - whether it's Jessica grappling with PTSD or Trish Walker (Rachael Taylor), her best friend struggling with addiction while striving to make an impact in society. The complex relationships between these characters enrich the narrative making each episode more engaging than the last.
