    Unworthy of the crown

    Just eww. What I was hoping wasn't the case, was the case. Joe Locke was always by far the worst feature of the show and now he's become even more insufferable.

    Like I said in my overall review, they should've stuck with Julian Hilliard who is growing up particularly fast and has a proven track record with the Horror genre. Instead of casting this cringy weakling.

    This is made even worse by the fact that this was by far the shortest episode of the season so far. Considering it was meant to delve into Agatha's past and dark nature, you would've expected it to be gritty and gripping. Instead it felt like a badly produced high school drama project rushing to the finish as quickly as possible.

    Really makes me regret the high rating I gave the show.

    Well, The Suprise Reveal at the End wasn´t that suprising, but great

    Love The Show for as it is .

    The Reveal at the End was awesome, i love the actor and i just finished the 3. Season of Heartstopper.....

    Now i am very exited for the rest of the Season and how it all plays out, i really hope at the end of the season thinks for other Projects are going to be prepaired like Doctor Strange 3, Scarlet Witch-Movie or something else....

    The Hate the Show gets .... its annoying but in some cases i can understand it.... some parts of the show should be chanced for the better.....

    I Like how Agatha as the Main Character isn soft-washed, she is still an Evil With and they portray her that way

    8 / 10.

    Zero improvement...

    This episode has zero improvement as in Agatha's character, which should be taken as a GOOD thing. The events of this episode were focused on Agatha's character and despite all of this she had made no development. This is a good sign because the show is trying not to deviate from her character too much because she is an antagonist at the end of the day. The show made her more of a team player with friends but destroyed all thoughts of cooperation when she did what she did. This was a good move to indicate that she won't change after a few moments with the characters and this makes sense seeing how Agatha has been evil for centuries. Therefore, it was intriguing to see zero improvement in her character but still loved it.

    There is also a shocking thing that occurs with Teen which is undoubtedly the biggest reveal of the season. The theories saw this coming but the reveal was a good execution. The Billie Elish song was a good joke that was a play on words given the context/situation.

    I only have minor gripes about the story specifically about how I wish they could have explored the horror aspect more because they had the best opportunity to this episode. I should acknowledge how others view Teen after the end but it is not as bad as it could be because it opens the story to more movies and expands the franchise. However, I am getting ahead of myself and it depends on what they do with Teen which is when it would be accurate to judge.

    Overall, an improvement from the previous episodes that does an excellent job exploring the trauma of Agatha along with the amazing acting from her actress. Of course, the ending is the best reveal to happen in this show and I hope the show does not mess up the opportunities it has now.

    Eh

    I always stay tuned every week for a new episode, hoping it's better than the last. This is probably the best episode of the show so far, but the series just has not worked for me. It is very cartoonish, like a live-action Scooby-Doo. The lines just feel very shallow and there is not enough development to care about the characters. Not saying I do not like a fun show, as I thought Hawkeye did a great job balancing the fun nature with actual good storytelling, and its not the actual character of Agatha, because her character was one of my favorite aspects of Wandavision. I will keep watching every episode, but they are all very predictable and too short to really care,

    Darkest Hour / Wake Thy Power

    So the witches could had flown on their broomsticks all along. So why are they walking in the road. Flying is quicker.

    There had to be reasons for the flashback scenes when Agatha killed her mother and others in 1693.

    The Salem Seven are not far behind the witches hence why they try to fly away.

    With the use of a ouija board, Agatha's mother Evanora appears and tells the others that Agatha is evil.

    This time Alice uses her powers to expel Evanora. But not without consequences.

    The bottom line is and by the end, the episode hints at it. Apart from the teen, the witches are baddies. Agatha is evil, so you have a show where you really cannot root for them.

    • Trivia
      When the witches first use the Ouija board, Agatha opens with, "Mother, Maiden, Crone, Spirits be known." However, this is out of order as the traditional arrangement is "Maiden, Mother, Crone" to align with the phases of the Triple Goddess. It's unsurprising when it's quickly revealed that she was faking Mrs. Hart's presence. Once Agatha starts over with true intent, she uses the correct wording, and the board connects.
