What I love the most about this whole series though... For the first 3 episodes, I thought this was going to be stupid as hell, and they were going to ride out that corny sitcom shit. I could not see any direction to this at all. But fortunately, the writers were much smarter than I ever anticipated for a series with 30-40 min episodes. Which is just awesome. Instead of dumbing it down for the masses, they took the risk of riding out that nonsense for the huge payoff. And it totally worked. I think the short episode format actually helps them in this regard. At this point, I can see all kinds of crazy potential linking this to a wide range of tempting plotlines...

Yeah. Olsen is a smoke show. I’d win wars for that.
I think the thing that really surprised me (she’s always been hot, I just can’t stop talking about it) is how good of an actress she is (became? IDK). They’ve really put a lot on her and she has done a TON of stuff that could fall flat. Bettany has been awesome forever, but I didn’t expect Olsen to deliver such a good performance. I’m truly impressed. They’re beating us over the head a bit with Rambeau, but whatever. This is awesome. |

Evidently Evan Peter's Quicksilver is slower once he crosses into the MCU in comparison to the Fox continuity

Agreed on all the Wanda comments. If you want to see her naked butt and ample cleavage go watch Very Good Girls. |

Sorry, but I guess I am in the minority on this. If not for how absolutely stunning and hot Elizabeth Olsen is I probably would bow out.
I am not getting the direction of this and the weird take on the MCU...maybe in the final episode I might look back and say..."OK now I understand" but for now I am just lost. I am however interested in "The Falcon and the Winter Soldier" and the return of Emily VanCamp. |

Great point, hadn't caught that. That's certainly possible.
It's also possible that

I have no ****ing clue. And that's a good thing. It should be noted that they've outran the sitcoms I watched as a kid (nick at nite and then the stuff that was on). I never watched Malcom in the Middle But all that stuff was light and funny and worked for me. Also one aspect they're doing a great job of (the whole crew) is making the sadness that Wanda is feeling palpable. The series pretty much doesn't work without that aspect, and they're doing a great job, all while there are jokes and ridiculous costumes. Its really a fascinating watch. |
