I don’t know that I agree it’s all Marvel shows, but I do think this one is having those issues. I could argue the issue is the eight episode format and needing to move the story along, but they’ve made so many shows in this format so they should be able to figure out the pacing and filling in the story beats.

I won’t spoil beyond episode two (in this thread), but I do think the overall story is worth continuing. Plus I hesitate to fully judge a show while it’s still releasing.

For example I enjoyed Agatha All Along as it was airing, but by the end all the previous episodes really paid off and made the whole series even better. I don’t think some of the issues we’ve both mentioned can be fixed in retrospect, but some of them might once we see how the whole story comes together.
