Some of the tv series
The best of the TV series (Shield season one, Punisher season one, Daredevil season one, all lost their way, and went from good to ok, or with the Shield, unwatchable). Agent Carter remained fairly solid throughout. Didn’t love Wandavision, but at least it was short and sweet. Have hopes for the new wave of tv shows coming.
For the first time in a while, I feel like I might rewatch a few of these.

I could see myself at some point watching the last two Avengers movies again.

I saw them again last year when we had the full lockdown here. They are good, Thanos is a great character.

Is that how you rank them?
I thought Agents Of Shield started surprisingly entertaining, but eventually turned really awful.

It's hard to rank these shows as a single entity. That show went on for a long time, some seasons were good, some weren't. The last one was a lot of fun. On balance, all seasons as one unit ... yeah, I like where I put it.

I reserve the right to allow completion before stuffing it in there.

So I finished watching the Marvel movies (sans Hulk), and it was...something. I don't want to do an all-out ranking, but they do fall into tiers for me.
In the highest tier are the weirdo space movies. This includes both GOTG movies, Thor 3, and Infinity War. I really enjoyed how these movies could take us to wholly imagined worlds and really let the reins loose. None of them are perfect--note that the first 2 Thor movies aren't up here, but Thor 3 is; that's mostly on the strength of the non-Asgard parts of the movie. I would also slide most of the Spider-Man stuff into here, especially Homecoming and Spider-Verse (for Far From Home, it's mostly the small, personal moments I liked, and the big drone battle at the end fizzled).
The second tier down would be fun movies that I enjoyed but that I didn't think much about after they ended. I liked the first 2 Captain America movies, the first Ant-Man, most of Thor 1 (the Earth stuff), and good chunks of Iron Man 1 and 3. Parts of Captain Marvel and Black Panther fall in this tier, but they're hanging on by a thread.
The third tier is basically everything else. Each of these movies had fun parts and good characters, but I could almost never see myself revisiting them or giving them much thought. The first 2 Avengers movies, Iron Man 2, Thor 2, Ant-Man 2...you know the rest. Long stretches of these movies just bored me, and one of them has Elon Musk in it.
WandaVision would slide right between the top two tiers and Falcon+Winter Soldier between tiers 2 and 3.

I liked GOTG 3, Spider-Man 3 and parts of Wanda Vision and Dr Strange. In hindsight they should have did Endgame codas with Spidey and Guardians and rebooted after that or something. I don't know anything besides what they did. They pretty much killed it. Oh I liked Werewolf too.
