Love the tone of this so far. I hope it doesn't devolve into regular action Marvel fare this season because this looks unique and interesting in a way that most of the MCU's stuff just isn't.

I lasted about 15 minutes. Just couldn't get past the whole WTF? bit.

Not a big Marvel fan to begin with, though, which I'm sure doesn't help.

The MCU has had so much success so far, it was only a matter of time before they started branching out into shows that don't resonate with the casual fans. I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes because I love the actors and the characters, but the show started out like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I didn't realize that was DVD and Betwitched houses.

I watched a bunch of Nick at Night as a kid, and maybe that's tripping a little nostalgia in there, but I had no trouble continuing to watch. At all. I was quite intrigued where they were heading.

If you have Hulu, you can watch the 2nd episode of the Dick Van Dyke show to see the same exact kitchen, even down to the old tube radio sitting on a shelf, as was shown in the first episode of WandaVision.

The set director did an amazing job of replicating absolutely everything.

Yeah, I think it's going to be very cool, especially considering that a huge portion of the audience watching WV grew up watching classic sitcoms such as Bewitched and Dick Van Dyke.

I'm super excited to see where it goes next.

I liked how they even had the separate beds in their bedroom.

I noticed the similarities because they pretty much slap you right in the face with it from the beginning. The ottoman that Vision walks through right after they enter the living room made me smile but then they just keep pouring it on and, to me, it becomes a derivative mess rather than an homage. I'll check back in to this thread at a later time to see how you guys are reacting to it but for now I'll try to stay out so as not to become a wet blanket.

Yeah, but that’s the point.

Something traumatic has happened to Scarlet Witch and her mind’s defense mechanism has placed her into familiar and safe surroundings. She feels that something is wrong and amiss but she can’t place her finger on it.

As soon as she figures out that everything is wrong, the episode ends and she finds herself and Vision placed into yet another set of familiar and safe surroundings.

We heard an unidentified voice say “Who did this to you?”, so this is definitely not happening in the corporeal world and she’s somehow being manipulated. What makes this interesting is the “Who” and the “When” of why this is happening to her.

Kevin Feige has stated that this occurs after Endgame but that’s all we really know after two episodes and I’ll bet it will be a few more weeks before we really know what’s going on.

The first episode was rough to get through for me too. While I appreciate what they were trying to do, I never liked those B&W sitcoms. It was basically an exercise in spotting easter eggs for me. The second episode was better. IMO they would have been better off combining them and starting with a longer pilot. I ran some errands between episodes and almost didn't watch the second one. Glad I did though. otherwise I might not have ever come back to it. Now that walls are bending between realities, I'm much more interested.

Really? You didn't get the reality bending out of the first one?

Vision didn't know WTF was going on right after he said he actually is incapable of forgetting anything.

And that whole "stop it stop it stop it" thing was just epically creepy. Same with that Stark toaster commercial.

I mean they went a long way out of their way to make it different.

I did, it was just way over powered by the 60's sitcom. I hated those shows. The reality bending in the first episode wasn't enough to compensate for me. The choking scene was great, but 10 seconds compared to 20 minutes.
