Character development was arguably arduous in that it spent entirely too much time on the show within the show. Ultimately it boiled down to the last of a few of 9 episodes to get to the point of the story. And granted, the ending was a real emotional tear jerker. But for those who stayed through the entire closing credits of the last episode, much was revealed about the potential future of the series and forthcoming Marvel Universe. We'll have to see what the next chapter holds, but I honestly found much of the first season far too campy for me; direction flailing, annoying scripting, over acting with characters who didn't appear truly believable. Ultimately, one either buy's into WandaVision completely or is dragged through it somewhat resentfully. I being the latter. I would also like to see more emphasis placed on production values; as an example, some of the sets were less than optimal. I'm sure there will be those who will find my observations unrelatable, but remember, art is always in the eye of the beholder.
