Season 1 of this show is AMAZING! 10/10! Now I know many people would disagree, but I loved it so much! Everything was so unexpected and dark. And I just loved how it toke a movie, changed something, and made the story go in a completely different direction! Favorites being Ultron episode, watcher broke his oath, Strange Supreme, and Avengers all died. Sure there were 2 or 3 episodes that really didn't stick the landing, but overall I really enjoyed it!

Now season 2... was okay. It felt very safe. Which is not what you want to do when the show is WHAT IF! First of Ego and Hela, insanely powerful beings either got beat in 2 seconds, or just became good in 2 seconds. Instead of making the villains even more terrifying and unexpected, the heroes beat or change them easier than the films do. I would rather have insanely powerful Ego or Hella be the villain for the final episode instead of Supreme Strange come on... The season had to take more chances.

Another issue is time. The episodes are way too short, and the time is not always used wisely. And I feel as though this was an issue in the first season where some episodes didn't get to finish their story (Killmonger, Zombies), but here it really shows. Instead of leaving it open-ended, it rushes it to an uncomfortable extent. Like Kahhori's episode. Way to overpower for whatever reason and does everything perfectly. Once again everything else is amazing to look at, but character is first. Captain Carter for me is an exception. Because she was in 5 episodes (2 being her own what ifs), which aloud her to be fleshed out more, also you can count the fact that she was in multiple mcu appearances before hand. Kahhori's introduction was rushed.

Some episodes I really enjoyed in S2, were Iron Man in Sakar, Captain Carter fight the Hydra Stomper, and 1602. The other ones go from fine to absolutely boring. For more in depth, I wrote reviews for most of the episodes.

I gave this an 8 (in the time of S1 and S2 release) because I still loved the first season, and S2 wasn't a complete failure.
