Going into The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, it was the MCU series I was least excited for simply because it looked like it was going to be a buddy-action story with quips and explosions. Instead, what we got was a masterpiece of storytelling, surprises, and a perfect origin story for Sam Wilson's Captain America.

This show made me laugh, it made me smile, it made me gasp, and yes, it made me cry on a number of occasions. It's a worthy addition to the Captain America storyline and one of the greatest things Marvel Studios has given us.

Anthony Mackie is the perfect Captain America.
