    Bruv... the laugh track? This is shit. I still see how it may turn dark cool storyline, but right now its crap imo.
    Isn't the laugh track part of the "old sitcom" theme, though? Seems appropriate to me. Agreed that I think 3 episodes feels a little long to keep us hanging without any decent answers, though. We should have at least had some kind of good lead at the end of the last episode.

    10 episodes
    3 acts
    first 3 eps are act one
    next 5 are act two
    final 2 are act three

    Act One should wrap up with at least one big question answered, IMO.

    That said, I am still enjoying it.

    Ok...so to be honest, I turned this ep off halfway thru. Watched all now. Took a major turn that, I predicted, could make this show really dark and cool. The end of this ep tilted to that projection.

    2 minutes into next ep and oh yes, this is picking up.

    Yeh it's really cool for them to bring back characters like this. Because let's be honest. Having her come back in Thor Ragnarok just for sake of her character being around for the first two movies, wouldn't have made any sense.

    Was also a bit mesmerized throughout by how on-point (and ghastly) Vision’s 80s hair looks.

    Yeh. Seems like it's going to be a theme across all the properties and not just a Doctor Strange or Spider-man thing.

    The whole thing was ghastly, especially the 70s period. I hated everything about that time. I was amused by Olsen "playing" on a parody of a show that made her siblings famous, though.

    Getting started with this.

    Episode I seems pretty daring to do for an entire episode. Like Irish would be screaming that no fan base would want this for thirty minutes (twenty-ish).

    Barbarian - ***
    Bones and All - ***

    I'm caught up to E5 atm. Speaking as someone who mainlined Nick at Nite shows from about 12 to 18, I think they nailed the tone of '50s and '60s pretty well. That they aren't peerless comedic pros still works to keep up the internal tension of the wider facade within. Whether it's Wanda doing all of this or someone else, the forced awkwardness works well enough and contrasts fantastically with the "breaking" moments. Overall, tho, it's just okay so far. Hahn is definitely a standout.

    I kind of hope that [
