Featured reviews
Super refreshing from last week which I would argue was the WORST episode so far. This was an unexpected joy to watch, and I thought it did Jen's character well for some much needed development
Also, in my opinion the best 4th wall break in the entire show so far. The jokes were back to funny, I enjoyed the heck out of the cinematography in the beginning, and I was glad to see a storyline that I'm pretty sure everyone can relate to in the 21st century
I'll be the first to admit I'm still waiting on Daredevil to swing by, and I'm upset he's getting dangled in front of my face like a carrot, but if we had to wait one more episode to see him, I'm glad this is what came of it.
So, to summarise... This episode is bad with some really cringe-worthy writing and just weird characters. But, it's got a handful of decent jokes, it brings back Blonsky, and it focuses more on Jen as a character.
The rest of the episode was... just fine. Like the rest of the season (so far), I'm not raving about the show but there's little I dislike. We all know the CGI is awful, but I still find the character of Jen (and some of the side characters) to be charming and worth watching! I'm among those who prefer the seriousness of early MCU entries, but still it's nice to just relax into some frivolity sometimes. For audience members like me, that can take some effort.
Yet another 'middle-of-the-road' episode of She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, that really should have been pretty great television but the people behind the scenes dropped the ball with.
CGI can still be better ofcourse but CGI isn't everything, story is what matters and in my opinion this episodes truly shows story within the characters. As example: The sort of therapy session felt heartwarming how the group embraces Jen and She-Hulk. I hope to see those characters very soon. I still hate the fact that Daredevil hasn't appeared yet... it's taking a bit too long because we are almost at the ending of the season and still no daredevil...
7/10 for me.

- TriviaJen's car is picked up by Slott's Towing. And the driver name is Dan. Dan Slott was a writer on the She-Hulk comic.
- GoofsThe 'three days earlier' version of Jen bringing Josh into her apartment shows a different sequence of events from the original; originally she grabs his shirt and pulls him in after her, but in the replay she puts her arm around his waist and escorts him through the door.
- Quotes
[talking about Josh in Blonsky's therapy group]
She-Hulk: I met him when I was Jen, and he liked Jen. He specifically didn't ask about She-Hulk.
[smiles]
She-Hulk: You know in high school that friend you have that's like, cooler than you are? Like, more attractive and athletic. They get all the attention from everyone.
[gestures down to herself]
She-Hulk: [playfully suggestive] Hello! Like, you think life would be so much easier if I were that person, and I can turn into that person anytime I want to. And everyone pays attention when I'm this. Like, my colleagues, my boss, guys. But it feels like cheating because would they like me if I didn't have all of this? Like, if I was just Jen, would the same guys who like She-Hulk stick around for Jen? Because some of them don't. And that sucks for Jen because Jen is great, and no one cares when they're She-Hulk. So, like, I meet this guy who actually likes Jen, and that just felt good to know that, you know? And then, he ghosts me and it sucks.
- Crazy creditsThe end credits include court room sketches of Al Aguila matadoring in college, Jen meditating in group, and Porcupine taking his costume in to be dry-cleaned.
