Meh!!! Seemed to be a lot about this episode that I just didn’t care about.

Sad about Hill.

Sam Jackson seemed to be phoning it in.

Olivia Coleman was the highlight for me.

Something is definitely off with Jackson. Not sure if he's phoning it in or he forgot how to act. Maybe his performance choices, attempting to portray an unsteady Fury, are misguided?

So far, this show is dumb. Maybe more boring than dumb.

At least Shooter McGavin's in it.

Y'know, this show is rocking the cliffhangers, but to be honest, it's another example of stretching a 2 hour moving into a 6-10 hour series.

The only Disney+ shows that weren't that were Wandavision, Loki, and She-Hulk.

This whole thing should be a 5-minute montage referenced in a better series, not a movie.

This series is such a bizarre misfire. I know a lot of folks are up in arms over the AI-generated title sequence; the entire series so far feels like it was created by AI. A lifeless, soulless, dead on arrival dud.

I'm not as passionate as Ensign, but yeah, this is lower tier for me.

Just got caught up last night. Wondering if there are going to be further ramifications or if they’re going to try and wrap it up in the back half.

5th episode and it’s mildly getting interesting.

I owe Ms Marvel/She Hulk an apology. This show is the worst show Marvel have attempted imho

Olivia Coleman is the highlight
