I can't wait for this show to come out in March.

I found Kathryn Hahn's ("Agnes" and potentially Agatha Harkness, for you Marvel nerds) comment about her pet rabbit's (Senor Scratchy!) love of the stage so funny, I had to watch it 3 times. I doubt it would pass Standards and Practices for TV of the early 1960s.

Emma Caulfield's character Anya in Buffy the Vampire Slayer had a rabbit phobia. In WandaVision she's the bitchy leader of the wives society, and there's a rabbit. Makes me wonder if that was an intentional callback, since there are so many already in the episodes.

(and scooped again. You guys are fast).

Makes me wonder if that was an intentional callback, since there are so many already in the episodes.

At best, I suspect there's some serendipity in the choice of her for the part. Giving Hahn's character a rabbit (Senor Scratchy!) is more in keeping with Marvel's backstory Easter eggs, especially if she does turn out to be Agatha Harkness. Wanda and Vision's stage names (Glamour, Illusion) are also part of this.

Spoiler

There was a story in the comic books where Vision was dismantled and put back together again but without his memories or personality. Plus he was all white. I wonder if something like that could happen here since his body wasn't destroyed. I'm sure that the Avengers have the body somewhere.

I like that it is completely different, creatively, than anything else in the genre and it should be obvious that it's building toward something. I'm very curious to see where it goes.

The fan theories on what is happening are really interesting. Kevin Feige has said that there is definitely something to theorize about. From wikipedia:

The fictional sitcom that the characters are in, also called WandaVision, features fake commercials that are "slightly nefarious",[45] including promotion for the organization Hydra,[9] which Feige said were "part of the truths of the show beginning to leak out".

I used to be a big Mr Robot nerd, doing the ARG for it and everything. The Mr Robot ending was so terrible I can't watch it any more, but I still kind of learned to view reality warping shows through Mr Robot, so I'm watching for clues as I watch Wanda Vision. I don't think the clues in Wanda Vision are anywhere near as hard to find as they were in Mr Robot. The production team just isn't wired the same way. The production team's attention to detail in replicating classic sets and things like that is incredible, but, you know... I don't get the impression that I'll be hunting for hidden URLs in television static, or encrypted messages in chinese menus with this show. That's probably a good thing. The clues in WandaVision seem to be very accessable, but also very cryptic. Fans seem to be spending most of their time scrutinizing clues in the fake commercials.

I love the way their home changes between episodes 1 and 2. In the first episode, the set is a replica of the Dick Van Dyke Show set, and in the second episode, they replicated the set from Bewitched. They kinda teased going to color in the next episode, which makes me wonder where they will go next. All in the Family would be awesome, but there's no way Disney would do that in the current political climate, LOL

That's what I said at first, but then I found out it's cryptic, so I decided to watch it as it came out. It's just more fun to watch shows like this with everybody else, so you can sit around and pick things apart with the rest of the fandom. It's just not as much fun when the big reveal is released, and you have to avoid spoilers and crap like that, and even then, there's no community to analyze the show with, because the community already knows what happened.

This can all fall apart for shows like The Masked Singer, though. I mean, when the fandom reversed the voice scrambler for The Masked Singer, after the first couple of weeks, there was just nothing left to figure out, and the show instantly became boring.

They're heading to the Brady Bunch.

They're heading to the Brady Bunch.

One episode is going to be Full House which Elizabeth Olsen's twin sisters were in.

Finally watched it tonight with the spouse. One friend was complaining its slow, but seriously, I think he needs to go rewatch sitcoms from that era, but also, maybe go read some freaking mysteries.

And its nice watching two episodes and actually knowing who is who, at least, as much as Wanda [and maybe Vision] does.

 

[Ghost Pepper]

I just finished watching the latest episode and it's different than the first 3. It's a flashback mostly involving Monica Rambeau.

It's the "reveal" episode explaining what's going on. Well, it doesn't explain everything. But you do start to get a good idea.

There has been lots of speculation especially on YouTube. Most of it's been crap.

One big reveal surprised me but made sense.

Spoiler

It looked like the real vision is actually there. Probably animated by Wanda. His head is damaged like it was towards the end of Avengers: Infinity War.

 

[Ghost Pepper]

Spoiler

There is a rumor that Evan Peters who played Quicksilver in the latest X-Men movies will be in the next episode. It's also mentioned in his Wikipedia page of him being in episode 5 as Quicksilver. It is not though in IMDB.com.

OMFG my mind is blown. Such a great show!

 

[Ghost Pepper]

Just watched the latest episode.

Spoiler

Vision knows that something odd is going on now. He and Wanda had a verbal arguement about what she was doing. Making things happen like people appearing at the door with what she needs and other things that he has noticed. At the end the doorbell rings and she states that she had nothing to do with it. When she opens the door Evan Peters is there. Darcy is watching the show and says that Wanda has recast her brother.

It makes me wonder if she might become responsible for the creation of Mutants.

 

[Ghost Pepper]

Spoiler

When SWORD did a scan of Monica there was a problem with the scan. I wonder if she somehow got her power from the comic books.

Also when Captain Marvel was mentioned Monica cringed a bit. Seems that there is some love lost there. Maybe she is mad that Carol didn't help her Mom.
