Until Chibnall leaves, for sure.

I’m told “All in the Family” was a loose remake of “Till Death Do Us Part”. Similarly, “Steptoe & Son” apparently had a US version called “Sanford and Son”. In fact, both shows were adapted by the same guy - Norman Lear - who then made a series of other shows (“Maude”, “The Jeffersons”, “Good Times”) as spinoffs from…
I think they were directly referencing Laura Petrie (Mary Tyler Moore) on the Dick Van Dyke show. I’m not going to fight kinja trying to post a picture, but here’s a link to a pic. It’s also similar to Bewitched, but that had a more heightened style that dates it a bit more. So I don’t think they intentionally were…
Yeah, I don’t know if I mentioned this elsewhere, but I think things are different for the most recent generation, especially for the kids growing up now watching whatever they want on YouTube and not what was broadcast on the networks or even expanded cable.
Like Sha-Na-Na? Did anybody ever look like Sha-Na-Na?WHy did they play Woodstock? I beleive they went on just before Hendrix. In the Woodstock movie they only give you like a minute of Sha Na Na and they look really out of place.
I said it was “great” earlier, and without getting too far into it - I mean - I thought it was the best part of Age of Ultron. I liked the Frankenstein refs and honestly, the serendipity of Stark’s Jarvis computer voice becoming a real boy with Paul Bettany having been in both roles was either genius planned in…
I think it’s a matter of mileage but I don’t think they are going for intentionally bad and more of a sincere homage. Me and my wife, who is a huge old show watcher, were laughing at the silliness.
I’m betting “for the children” is going to become very ominous. Notice that the talent show is apparently “for the children”, but we haven’t seen any children at all yet? And the other cast members keep making jokes or references to how Wanda and Vision don’t have children. Wanda’s sudden pregnancy is her direct…
Has Elizabeth Olsen done comedy before? Because she is like perfect at the “quirky sitcom housewife” thing. The whole cast is great but I’m surprised just how easily she fits in to that dynamic. And of course bringing in people like Hahn and Caulfield is gonna win me over quick.
It’s Jimmy Wu, the FBI Agent from Ant-Man and the Wasp, who’s been seen in some of the trailers.
Red as the color that breaks through the black-and-white reality reminds me of similar moments in Schindler’s List.
When did they promise a solo movie for her in the first place?
I for one really enjoyed it. The goofy, tongue-in-cheek sit-com parody pared with surreal David Lynch dread is a jarring but entertaining contrast. I’m hooked.
The only MCU show I’m interested in is She-Hulk, so WandaVision wasn’t exactly something I was clamoring for. But what the heck, I like old school sitcoms (in fact, I spent the summer of 2019 watching I Love Lucy, Bewitched, and Gomer Pyle.) so I’ll check this out. It’s good they released 2 episodes because, not…
I mean, this is already the best thing the MCU has ever done. Full stop.
The second time sounded like a different man.
I want that toaster! :D
I like recaps
They were both fantastic. Completely met my expectations. As an homage to the 50s and 60s tv shows, and as setting up the rest of this show, it did its job. I can’t wait to see where it goes--even though, as a comics enthusiast, I have my guesses.
This also isn’t Kathryn Hahn’s first trip to the Marvel Universe, as she voiced Doc Ock in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. That may or may not be a deliberate casting gag depending on how her role here ends up.
