3. The Defenders

Who: Charlie Cox, Krysten Ritter, Mike Colter, Finn Jones

What: After their four individual series, Netflix and Marvel's plans come to fruition with the big team-up event for Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, and Iron Fist.

Why: This is the TV equivalent of The Avengers, built up over - by the time it arrives - five seasons of television. Seeing all these heroes come together to defend New York should be great to watch - especially given the quality that already exists here. Plus Sigourney Weaver is the villain, which should be lots of fun.

Where & When: Netflix, TBA
