AGATHA ALL ALONG Poll & Spoiler Discussion: What Did You Make Of Marvel's WANDAVISION Spin-Off?

Agatha All Along concluded with a double-episode finale on Halloween, and we want to know what you made of the entire first (and likely only) season of Marvel's WandaVision spin-off.

It's probably fair to say that Agatha All Along wasn't one of the more highly-anticipated MCU shows to be announced for the Disney+ streaming service.

The prospect of a WandaVision spin-off focusing on scene-stealing witch Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) may have seemed like a more appealing idea a few years ago, but even then, a lot of fans wondered what the point of a series revolving around this character was when there are better-known and more popular Marvel Comics heroes and villains that have yet to be given the spotlight.

Even so, the first two episodes proved to be surprisingly popular, and based on critical (the show's Rotten Tomatoes score has now gone from 67% to 83%) and audience responses, many would seem to agree that the series only increased in quality as it went on.

This week's two-episode finale did seem to be a little more divisive, however, with a somewhat convoluted plot twist and what some felt to be an underwhelming resolution.

Now that the series (the story will likely continue in the Vision show) is at an end, we want to know what you made of Agatha All Along. Vote in the poll below, and feel free to discuss all major story details and spoilers in the comments section.

SuperSurvey

The new series focuses on Kathryn Hahn’s character, Agatha Harkness, from the acclaimed Marvel Studios’ series WandaVision, as she sets off on a dangerous, mysterious adventure filled with trials and tribulations. Showrunner Jac Schaeffer, who was the creative force behind WandaVision, directs the pilot episode.

"In Agatha All Along, the infamous Agatha Harkness finds herself down and out of power after a suspicious goth Teen helps break her free from a distorted spell. Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing. Together, Agatha and this mysterious Teen pull together a desperate coven, and set off down, down, down The Road…"

In addition to Kathryn Hahn, Agatha All Along stars Joe Locke, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Maria Dizzia, Paul Adelstein, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Okwui Okpokwasili, with Debra Jo Rupp, with Patti LuPone, and Aubrey Plaza. The executive producers are Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Brad Winderbaum, Mary Livanos and Jac Schaeffer. The directors for the series include Jac Schaeffer, Rachel Goldberg and Gandja Montiero.

The seventh episode of Agatha All Along is now streaming on Disney+.

Surprisingly well made for how uninvested I initially was, and an interesting new chapter in the MCU's sorcery/witchcraft saga.

I didn't make anything, but I did enjoy any and all time spent with Aubrey.

For those wondering, the poll choices are based on the 5-star rating system... I didn't include a "didn't watch" option for obvious reasons.

@MarkCassidy - Well, I told you guys when you were putting up those great viewership numbers from BS sources that it was wrong. https://news75today.com/quanghuy/nielsen-ratings-reveal-marvels-agatha-all-along-struggling-with-audiences-confirm-disney-plus-series-premiere-posted-worse-numbers-than-the-acolyte/?fbclid=IwY2xjawGRBBdleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABHSucLJsI_NcBBjUXvAlji2dl5cXQSacxoKY072RkLlhTbUxdeq30BIz4DQ_aem__dutEkXhZbepA7_Avn4zYA

Once it hit Nielsen, you guys knew the real numbers so apparantly, a lot of people didn't watch.

Transparantly, I didn't watch five minutes of it so I don't care either way. It just wasn't for me and thats fine.

Definitely liked it better than some of their other shows, and you can tell someone on the writing team did their research on some of the more obscure witch lore. I dunno if I like it more than WandaVision but it's not a comfortable lead.

Also give Patti LuPone her things! She did amazing in her dedicated episode. All of the actresses did amazing, Kathryn Hahn especially. Joe Locke...ehh.

@RitoRevolto - it’s above Wandavision for me, this and Loki stuck the landing unlike Wandavision
RitoRevolto
RitoRevolto - 11/1/2024, 12:56 PM
@Taonrey - Wasn't a fan of Loki at all. I'm gonna rewatch WV again and see if my ranking it changes versus AAA.

I will now turn my attention to Daredevil.

The fate of the whole known universe depends on this show being great.

Civilization will not survive another crappy D+ show.

@DocSpock - You say that but if it wasn't for Marvel Studios using Disney+ many of the adjacent shows on other networks wouldn't exist. The Penguin, Monarch Legacy of Monsters, It Welcome to Derry, The Continental, and so on. Marvel Studios showed the industry that the audience will watch a movie and continue watching a show set within the same universe as that movie.

@Malatrova15 -

You are now very consistent. I never know what you are talking about. It fits with my whole usually confused lifestyle.

May just be my favorite season of MCU TV. Very well thought out and told story. Has given me lots to think about and it's fun and rewarding seeing the pieces put together. Great cast of characters, inventive production design and visuals, memorable music and very compelling themes. In a saga that has told many tales of characters confronting the inevitable (whether it be grief, trauma, their actions or whatever) this feels like the most inventive and existential spin on it. And the consistency of the writing on Agatha (show and character) just feels so damn good. Now that is complete and you can look back at it, its impressive how cohesive and smartly written the whole thing is. Damn good TV. Plus there's just something brilliant about recontextualizing every moment of Agatha and Rio and putting in the perspective that it's her relationship to death!

I mean if you think about it, the whole show is Agatha edging death. And she still manages to avoid it. Death will come back way angrier for her, Billy and whoever joins them...

It was ok. 6/10.
HeavyMetal4Life
HeavyMetal4Life - 11/1/2024, 1:03 PM
@mountainman - that's about how I would rank it too. A lower tier D+ MCU show for me.
mountainman
mountainman - 11/1/2024, 1:46 PM
@HeavyMetal4Life - If I enjoyed the witch genre I bet I would have liked it more. Death and Billy were the standouts so happy to see them show up elsewhere but the show itself wasn’t that entertaining until the last few episodes.

At least it didn’t have the problem with most D+ shows of failing to stick the landing. It ended better than it began, I’ll give it that.
MotherGooseUPus
MotherGooseUPus - 11/1/2024, 1:52 PM
@mountainman - @HeavyMetal4Life - damn :( the 2 guys i agree with most on here and love talking with... i disagree... i put it in the top tier of D+ shows right behind Loki S1, Wandavision and Loki S2
mountainman
mountainman - 11/1/2024, 2:14 PM
@MotherGooseUPus - We can’t agree all the time. I didn’t hate it, I just found it to be ok.

Since I really haven’t dug most of the live action D+ shows, it would probably be closer to the top than bottom.

X-Men 97 was my favorite so far but that’s animated.

Of Live action, the only things I’d say were good to great were:

- WandaVision
- Loki
- Werewolf by Night

It’s ok to have different tastes. My wife liked it a lot. Sounds like a lot of folks here did too. Just not a genre I’m interested in. I like the Werewolf By Night side of the supernatural Marvel universe more than this side.

Considering how meh the first two episodes were, the show really surprised me and by the end of it, I think it needed up in of the strongest MCU Disney+ shows. A strong followup to WandaVision. Bring on Vision Quest!
MisterBones
MisterBones - 11/1/2024, 12:34 PM
A surprise. Way better than I thought it would be and I was expecting the worst. Honestly, one of their better shows, only behind Loki. Stuck the landing better than WandaVision too. And the fact that it was a low budget, very practical effects laden show makes it all the better.
McMurdo
McMurdo - 11/1/2024, 12:44 PM
@MisterBones - nah Wandavision buries this series
MisterBones
MisterBones - 11/1/2024, 12:56 PM
@McMurdo - I hear you. I would never argue with anyone who puts Wandavison over this. Finale aside that show was damn good
McMurdo
McMurdo - 11/1/2024, 1:04 PM
@MisterBones - why do people dislike the finale? Thought it was sick
mountainman
mountainman - 11/1/2024, 1:48 PM
@McMurdo - The giant CGI battle and then the empathy given to Wanda after she enslaved a town of people for weeks.

But overall I still find that to be the best D+ live action show so far.
ThorArms
ThorArms - 11/1/2024, 12:34 PM
I liked it, the last episode flow felt weird considering the one before felt like the finale. I understand why it had to happen like that though, just felt weird with pacing.
vectorsigma
vectorsigma - 11/1/2024, 12:38 PM
I havent seen the last episode yet but I enjoyed ep1, the ep with teen's origins and the episode focusing on Patti Lupone.

This coming from someone who thinks that Marvel is bankrupt creatively.

I dont like the show overall but one of the many problems with Marvel is that they introduce a lot of new characters without giving them a chance to be seen as part of the wider mcu. They seem to be one and dones.

The earlier phases tells how much a plan is in place and each small part led to a big and exciting union. Now they just throw anything at the wall and see what sticks. How will the audience care when someone dies in the next Avengers movie if the ladt time they saw that character was years ago on a Disney+ show?

Good luck basing everything off now from D&W because that one stuck box office wise
DarthAlgar
DarthAlgar - 11/1/2024, 12:38 PM
I give it a C +.

Malatrova15 - 11/1/2024, 1:42 PM
@DarthAlgar - wich turns into a A+× in this site by default.josh rules sorry
McMurdo
McMurdo - 11/1/2024, 12:44 PM
Bout on par with She Hulk.
HeavyMetal4Life
HeavyMetal4Life - 11/1/2024, 1:04 PM
@McMurdo - outside of 2 episodes, I really hate She Hulk. I would rank She Hulk last for me, followed by Secret Invasion, and then Agatha.
MrDandy
MrDandy - 11/1/2024, 1:30 PM
@McMurdo - She Hulk is bottom of the barrel. Trash
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 11/1/2024, 12:44 PM
I really liked it overall, but the finale was... Just okay. I don't think the twist really holds up if you think too much about it, and it felt like Marvel trying to go a bit too "capeshit" with a show that hadn't been at all up to that point.
Thing94
Thing94 - 11/1/2024, 12:50 PM
I didn't understand the narrative at all, I didn't understand what was going on. Waste of my time.

Didn’t watch.

Easily one of the best MCU releases.

ModHaterSLADE - 11/1/2024, 1:11 PM
It was a W for me. The musical elements weren't nearly as annoying as I'd thought they be and the cast was great. The Billy and Agatha dynamic is something I'd want to see explored further with that ending.
LegendaryOutlaw
LegendaryOutlaw - 11/1/2024, 1:13 PM
The first few episodes were a slog but it got better as I go on. Not among my favorites of the shows, but it’s one of my favorite finales so far.

Crtdacct2say - 11/1/2024, 1:19 PM
It's up there with the Wanda Vision and Hawkeye. Great stuff
MotherGooseUPus
MotherGooseUPus - 11/1/2024, 1:54 PM
Really really liked it

1) Loki S1
2) Wanadavision
3) Loki S2
4) Agatha

then the rest of the pack with none of them being that good
