Original, bold and doesn't take itself to seriously - a surprising solid mini series from Marvel!

The topic of the hour, the most recent bet Marvel is going to make is a bunch of TV series announced some time ago, and it starts off with second tier characters (which don't have a standalone movie of their own) Wanda and Vision. The initial episodes are strange and completely out of context from what Marvel usually makes, but that's actually the beauty of it, this works unexpectedly well, and if you give it a shot (it's only 9 episodes so a very short series compared to what's coming out these days) you'll have all the answers for the questions you will be asking for the first 4 episodes. Another positive aspect of this, is the 20-40 minute average per episode, it makes it more engaging and there wasn't a single boring period I felt while watching this series.

The initial set takes us to what seems to be a sitcom starring the well known heroes and their boring life in the American suburbs, and for the first 4 episodes the tone continues, with silly comedy and a laughing track as we move through the decades and the evolution of sitcom. Here and there, we notice some odd events that start to foreshadow the plot that is developed over the course of the final episodes, and this is what makes the series thrive, the mixture of odd and mystery.

Once we start to get some answers and be more emerged in what we are used to in the Marvel cinematic universe, at first I enjoyed it as long as you are a Marvel fan and you have your mind opened for the fact that this is super hero fantasy - but over the course of the last episode, it felt it was a bit cliché which is again something Marvel always had, yet with the first episodes I was hoping they would keep the originality throughout the whole show. There are some revelations, which might be interesting for hardcore Marvel fans who know these characters outside the movies, from the actual comics, yet I found myself doing a bit of research to check on the newly introduced characters and how this is suppose to start the next stage of Marvel movies and TV shows.

In short, it's original, entertaining and keeps you engaged throughout, it becomes more "Marvel" from episode 5 and after, and it reaches your usual Marvel movie on the series finale - I must say I am excited to see what they do over the course of the next planned TV shows!
