On a unrelated note, I guess this confirms that all the people who got blipped while on a plane didn't have a happy ending since Monica returned to the exact same spot she was in 5 years ago.

And if anyone is being honest, it's obvious the production so far is of a lower standard...it's not even close. But as I said, I will stick with it... only in the hopes that the show will finally redeem itself in the second half

And no, this isn't prestige TV, but I still think its rather good. But different opinions are OK. (unless it's about star trek discovery, which is muck)
AlmightyCushion wrote: » This really shouldn't be compared to Breaking Bad. Breaking Bad was slow at times but it was amazing. I actually don't think Wandavision is slow. The pace is decent and it is revealing more about the mystery in each episode. However, it is also not amazing. Quite the opposite, so far it has mostly been rubbish.

Wanda a bigger role, but their romance in endgame was very much a "oh they've been dating for ages now". Its nice to actually get to know the characters a bit more, particularly for those who don't get their own film. If you want the mystery box opened and the problem solved, I understand why you might be frustrated with the show. Me, I'm enjoying the characters. I didn't know vis was a family man, that he could gum up his parts, that he is not as slick as iron man with distraction. Similarly I didn't know Wanda was so maternal, how much she wanted to fit in, how deeply pietros death affected her. I have an idea of this now. I like breaking bad, but Jesus it was slow. But it meant we got to realise skyler was a bitch, Walts slow turn, and that he had the capacity for great evil. That's what the show is trying to do. I like it. Means at the end myself and the wife actually discuss the show.

Something that could be done in 15 mins in 1 episode. As I alluded to a few days ago, its somebody's "oh look at me, aren't I clever" moment with the direction it's going...and I'm afraid it's just not working for me... Compare it to Jessica Jones & Daredevil..not even in the same ballpark re production, storyline, building and connecting characters.... I am of course going to stick with it.. but at the moment it just seems to be all so unnecessary

Those kinds of reveals have to have a dramatic impact for the audience and the characters, there's literally no consequences at all if someone the audience and Wanda have known for 15 minutes turns out to be a hydra agent or a figment of her imagination. The show is literally building and connecting characters, something you claim to want and we don't know who will be left standing or what side they'll be on when this reality all comes crumbling down. The introduction to the real world has to mean something to the audience and the characters, there has to be stakes. This is a very different type of show to the Netflix shows but I'm actually at a loss as to how you could think the production is of a lower standard.
