Well she wasn't random. She was literally just working on them. And she was initially chosen for a reason.Ralph-Wiggum wrote: ↑Fri Feb 12, 2021 10:38 pm I’ve really like this show, but one thing from this last episode really annoyed me:

Episode 7:
Non spoiler:
Continuing on with my Friday morning viewings. Another good episode with a few significant plot developments. And, I remain very impressed with Elizabeth Olsen. I thought she was fine in the Avengers movies, but just sorta there. With WandaVision, I see now that they just didn't give her much to do. I hope she gets more non-Marvel work after this (Paul Bettany as well!)
Spoiler:
Really looking forward to the next two episodes.
Edit: P.S. Watch through the credits on this one.

Yeah...that episode lost me. I have no idea who that person is or why she’s important.

Even though marvel fans from back in the day will recognize her at once, I’m sure they’ll explain who she is for those who don’t.

I think this episode was designed for the Marvel fans more than the movie fans. I'm the latter and was not terribly excited after this episode.

Interesting. I have no idea who she is but I thought the twist was awesome just on its own.

Yeah, I don’t fully grasp why knowing the characters from the comics would be a prerequisite to enjoying this episode.
There was a ton of great stuff at the end of this episode that they showed us.
Only 2 episodes left and a lot of story left to tell.

I didn't like the direction they took with that reveal. Maybe it would have resonated more if I had some familiarity with the characters. That's all I meant.

After watching Ep1, MHS and I started watching the long long long credit roll and we looked at each other and commented "Seriously?" That first episode felt like something four people could've put together, not eight minutes of listing 2-point font names scrolling by nearly so fast you couldn't read a-one of them.
As the series has gone on, the extent of the cast and crew list is becoming a bit more understandable.

They've essentially made a new Marvel film as a miniseries.

Watched the final episode. Quick non-spoiler note: there are TWO credits scenes this week. A mid-credit scene and then another after the remaining credits.

Re: Disney+'s Marvel Serieses
Just finished the finale. Gotta say this show as a whole was amazing - one of my favorite shows of the past few years. Really amazing how they blended together sitcom satire and a compelling superhero show (that added a *lot* of depth to Wanda).

Re: Disney+'s Marvel Serieses
so is it truly a series finale as the title of the episode suggests?
Kids and I loved in. We finished all the marvel movies in order, just finished all the spidermans and wanda vision, have nothing to watch until Captain America spinoff airs in two weeks.

Re: Disney+'s Marvel Serieses
Yeah! I'm pretty sure it's a one shot series that pushes the MCU along. Doesn't mean we won't see either of them ever in a TV series again, but not in this kind of incarnation. Presuming you saw the finale, I think this story has been told with a strong concluding arc. Wanda is clearly going to be a big part of Dr Strange 2, and my guess is there will be more ramifications to the MCU after that.
I won't comment on the finale/series details, but just wanted to say how incredible of a job they did. To me, it really raises the bar (along with Mandolorian) of what we can expect/hope to see from streaming media. The quality of the writing, acting, effects - it was every bit as good and compelling as a major MCU movie, and yet they somehow compressed it to the small screen so effectively. Major kudos.

Fantastic finish! I was ambivalent about this show and didn't really see how it would work, but it was absolutely tremendous.

Re: Disney+'s Marvel Serieses
I love that marvel is basically dropping one new thing per week for the rest of the year. Like, we've got the WandaVision "Making Of" show next week then Falcon & The Winter Solider is on deck and Loki is coming up and then (hopefully) the Black Widow movie finally and then the "What If" series and then and then and then.

Re: Disney+'s Marvel Serieses
Boy, did I like WandaVision. They did such a good job of building up the love between the two of them. I definitely teared up at the end there.
Also, thank god the post-credits scene wasn't just a promo for Marvel's next Disney+ series.
