    All established and popular characters in the comics, especially She-Hulk. These aren't reboots for the sake of selling tickets or Disney+ subscriptions.

    Disney is well aware of the MCU demographics. Demographic paper: http://www.bethanylacina.com/docs/Lacina_MCU_draftJuly2020.pdf

    Ensemble women casts haven't done particularly well just yet. But most if it was rebooted material, or Women overcoming obstacles like men. Would like to see more attempts at things a little more creative. Mean Girls kinda got there. Some others. Marvel could definitely break some ground, but the women will need to be shapely and hot to pull it off.

    They’re adding female superheroes, but are they taking away male ones? RdJ and Evans are leaving… but they added Shang Chi, are adding Deadpool, blade, the knock off batman, and it looks like daredevil is coming back etc.

    If you hate female leads, you still have still have plenty of options.

    Episode 3. Improved.

    What I liked was that they put you in the car with Hawkeye and the arrow girl and then also in the head of the hearing impaired. Both solid elements usually missing for the Marvel Characters. We were in the action. Spinning with the characters. The hearing loss would have been even more interesting if the cliffhanger had been the girl talking on the phone with her son, and then at the end writing on the notepad something that scared the **** out of Hawkeye. But it was still solid.

    The villains are still muddled. The Father might be good, or bad, I just don't know yet. He is being presented as bad, but I wonder if he is ultimately trying to change his life, but accidentally married the evil mother. And the new Echo girl is coming off as likeable, but bitter. It's a little confusing, and that's ok at this point, I want to be guessing, but the stakes remain low because of it.

    This is one of the better superhero tv series. it feels a bit like the A-team and the 80s/90s Mission Impossible.

    None of the cringe edge all the other SH shows suffer from.

    Episode 3 was great. Fun action sequence with the car chase and arrows.

    Yes, it's connected. It doesn't seem to have any huge impacts yet (like it's not a Thanos level event), but there could be impacts. They seemed to introduce a fairly large bad guy character in the last episode.

    Very Good episode. Funny. No action by comparison, but very solid work in this one.

    Needs to hurry up the story and Kingpin reveal, all the larping stuff was a big comedic whiff.
    Solid show but it's starting to drag already.

    What? The big fight scene wasn't action?

    btw, a buddy of mine has a theory that I think has some validity based on how the show has showcased Hawkeye's life and regrets:

    Hawkeye will die

    That would certainly be a bold move.
