Watching eps 1-3 I had thought the show would start like this each episode as a delusion in Wanda's mind and then back to the real world live and in color. But no, Disney/Marvel went all in on the 50s-70s TV style and the results are lots of mixed and and negative reviews.

One could say that the first 3 episodes each pay homage to a different era in classic TV or perhaps they each just make fun of them. In either case come episode 4 it all starts to get really good and you start to understand why they did what they did and how they did it.

After Episode my rating of the show was a 2/10. That said i still hung in there hoping i was missing something and that if I could hang in there it could get good or maybe just maybe even great. Well I'm very pleased to say I was wrong about my initial review and score and after episode 4 have adjusted both accordingly.

I do believe Disney+ would have been much better off releasing the first four episodes all at once to avoid losing viewers that where as confused and frustrated as I was.

My new score of 8/10 would probably be a 10 if the episodes where longer and if there were going to be more than just 9 in total. With each episode only having about 18m of content and 12min of credits and "previously on" that means WandaVision in whole will only be about 2.7 hours long. That means it is basically a feature length movie split over 9 episodes for the sake of having it be a "mini-series" or "TV show"

At any rate unless the show takes another turn after episode four I think we are in for a good ride overall. Try your best not to tune out during ep 1-3 and YES you do need to watch them ep 4 will be meaningless to you without having seen them.
