The first episode, yes, it was a little slow paced, but due to the fact that it is an introduction episode, it is going to be full of introduction. For a first episode I thought it was quite good and set the premise of the show very well. All of the one star and low reviews I have read are the people who watched the first episode and then wrote a review, rather than watching more of the series, so do not listen to those. This show is great. It is action packed, funny, and brings a whole new depth to this popular Marvel character. Please watch the show for yourself and don't listen to the reviews.
