Agatha All Along

First, I find it interesting that people could leave one star reviews on a show that hadn't premiered yet. Looks like some are a bit pre-biased.

Be that as it may, the show is not the be all end all and it's not the meaning of life, but it's fun and it's very interesting and I can't wait to watch the rest of the series. Joe Locke is perfect casting as expected, Kathryn Hahn is amazing as always, and I'm looking forward to meeting the rest of the coven. It has the right notes of spookiness, especially for the Halloween season, and I think using the same exterior for the house in Bewitched from the 60s is an awesome call back. I'll be here every week.

After two episodes I wasn't sure if I wanted to continue with this show. It was slow, didn't seem to be much plot, I wasn't identifying with the characters and overall it seemed like a show for goth teens but not for me. I decided if something didn't click in episode three then I'd write it off and move on to something else.

Boy am I glad I gave it that one last chance because it really started clicking in episode three. The real adventure finally began and some explanations started to come together for a lot of mysterious things that had me wondering if I just wasn't remembering enough from WandaVision or if I was supposed to read the comics first.

It still seemed like a bit of a teen show but at least it was on a more fun journey now. As the episodes went by something else happened as well, it matured into more adult themes and I was both surprised and genuinely moved by the final reveals.

Even if you think this show isn't for you at first, give it a chance and it will reward you in due time. By the end I was wishing for a second season but alas it sounds like it's one and done, and maybe that's for the best given the journey it took to get there. I'm glad I went for the ride!

I am saddened by the people downvoting this show simply because of a character's sexual orientation. It's not even the highlight of the show; it is just referenced.

Anyway, judging by the duel-episode premier, the show is enticing. It's a bit goofy with its humor, but what Marvel project hasn't dipped into that silliness? The vibes of the show are perfect for the Halloween season. I am excited for the continued expansion of magical beings in the MCU.

My only concern would be whether or not the teased surprises in store will actually be surprising, but this is a general worry due to past MCU Disney+ shows. They just don't seem to stick the landing, but--damn--does this one have a promising start.

I am having a good time so far. Hahn, Plaza, and LuPone seem to be enjoying themselves, as well! While it may not be as serious and heavy as Falcon and the Winter Solider, it certainly is miles ahead of She-Hulk's absurdity for the sake of absurdity.

I came in to Agatha All Along with no pre-conceived ideas or having done any looking in to the back story. So, it wasn't until I was deep in and watching Episode 6 (?) that I realized that it had a connection to the Marvel Cinematic Universe - WandaVision in particular. I felt scammed and peeved.

Well, having gotten engaged in Agatha All Along, I paused it and had to watch WandaVission. While WandaVision has some critical element as back story to Agatha All Along, it is pretty tangential (and - IMO - a much lesser show than Agatha All Along).

Well I finished E6, then dove in to E7-E9 and have to really give the show credit. The acting is superb across the board, with Hahn as Agatha being a standout. The sets have an off beat, original perspective as the show moves along. Most of all, the trials the characters go through and their growth is well done. The show keeps an engaging, adult story line, none of the usual sugar coating where everyone ends up ok in the end.

While I don't think the connection to the MCU was necessary, it is what it is. And, it does not detract unduly from the overall show. I would likely watch a season two if in the offing.

The series Agatha All Along is a fascinating spin-off from WandaVision, created by Jac Schaeffer, and the first two episodes already provide an excellent glimpse of what's to come. As is often the case with Marvel productions, the cinematography is impeccable, raising the visual standard we've come to expect from the MCU.

The characters are incredibly captivating right from the start, sparking curiosity and a desire to learn more about each one. The actresses are perfectly cast in their roles, standing out with performances that bring both humor and emotion to the narrative.

One of the highlights is the music at the end of the second episode. The masterful blend of major and minor tones creates an unforgettable atmosphere, leaving a chill and an irresistible urge to keep watching. Once again, Marvel holds the audience's attention with a seamless combination of elements.

If you haven't started watching yet, this series promises to be one of Marvel's most enchanting. Don't miss it!
