On a scale of 1 to 10, how much would you recommend this show to someone who’s pretty bored by Marvel and hasn’t seen WandaVision? The mostly female cast makes me want to check but Marvel is just so… meh.
I would urge you to watch WandaVision first, because it does relate back to it quite a bit. I’m not a big fan of Marvel, but I did love WV and this was also a lot of fun. Such a fantastic cast. Both were very different from what the franchise usually churns out. Maybe like an 8 if you don’t like the Marvel U
I also think this was a decent casual watch for people who haven't seen much MCU. I recommended it to a friend of mine who hasn't seen WandaVision and gave her a one sentence summary of what happened in that show, which admittedly I didn't fully understand myself because I've never seen any of the MCU movies. The basic setup of Agatha being a witch trapped in a spell cast by her nemesis is enough to enjoy it, though, imo.
Watch WandaVision and at least read up on Multiverse of Madness. I don't think you'll enjoy it as much if you're unaware of the stories in those two pieces.
As someone who is over Marvel, this was a lot of fun. The acting is fantastic, and the ladies do such a great job with the material.
I would recommend looking up recaps of Wandavision if you don’t want to watch it before watching Agatha. The first episode won’t make any sense unless you know the basics of Wandavision.
I wouldn’t recommend it if you haven’t seen WandaVision, a lot of the series is a continuation of WV. You might be confused if you haven’t seen the last Dr Strange move, either.
But otherwise, it’s truly the first thing that Marvel has done that’s excited me. I bailed after Multiverse of Madness and haven’t picked up anything else (I also had a lot of Marvel fatigue after Endgame). I was really bummed watching the end credits to the last episode. It’s was fun and made me cry, and I was happy to see gay rights and wrongs handled in a perfectly normal way instead of a blink and you’ll miss it/very special episode.
Funny story, I’ve actually been so checked out of MCU that I totally forgot that the Avengers and everyone are just a part of every day life.
