Two episode premiere on Disney+ September 18th...

I like Kathryn Hahn as an actress, and she excels in this role, but I'm just not sure we needed this. Although to see Aubrey Plaza play a witch I am here for.

A lot of the writing/production team from WandaVision worked on Agatha All Along, so there is a glimmer of hope that this might be worthwhile. Will be interesting to see how/if they try to shoehorn the story into the larger MCU.

Even if it's competently produced and executed there's still the glaring issue of "Why tf should any of us give a single solitary [shirt] about Agatha f@(bleep) Harkness?"

I agree, BUT - they pulled it off with Peacemaker, which was an absolute homerun about a character I didn't think I would care about, or want to know more about.

DCEU and MCU execs are two completely different "theys"

Peacemaker was the WandaVision of the DCEU, i.e. the 1st spinoff attempt. If Agatha was the 2nd MCU series and not the 8th (?) in a decreasingly satisfying conga line over the last few years I'd be way more optimistic about it.

I agree with that. I was making a broad opinion just based on a secondary character from a popular movie (or TV show) getting their own show. You are correct, Peacemaker was #1 while this one is way down the list. I guess we will see.

Disney wants to treat WandaVision as the first of a trilogy - Agatha All Along being the first sequel and Vision Quest, scheduled to film next year, being the story's conclusion.

It's inconceivable to me how they intend to make money off of that plan.

Because of the catchy song.

Anyone else watching this? The YouTubers I watch love it.

I think it’s been pretty good. Aubrey Plaza as

Spoiler

Lady Death
