You can't make a serious version of Man Bull, this was probably the only way to go. fastballspecial 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkman Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 I'm enjoying this show a lot. Not sure if it's my favorite so far, but it is solidly good. Cozmo-One, Lpgk and PovertyRow 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Balls Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 I just finished the "wedding" episode, and I thought it was great - I liked the overall normality it tried to inject into it. This show has done a great job of having it's own style and sticking with it. I'm sure the main target demo is females, but they've done a great job with humor to make an old dude like me enjoy it. And I'm a former card-carrying member of NO MA'AM - they continue to provide a female perspective but not alienate guys by forcing us to watch a all-girl 10k marathon man-stomp.

I agree. For me, it's going to be hard for Marvel to top Loki. That was a total package Marvel show. (leaving out Daredevil and Punisher, of course).

This week's episode, the writers actually put their therapy session in the show (or it may be the actual writers room). Jen gets affirmed she is great just the way she is, and the big boy friend reveal is exactly what was telegraphed. The end.

Yeah, I can see how people can think that - I don't feel as alienated in this show as I did with Handmaid's Tale, which I had to stop watching midway through the first season it was so over-the-top. Granted, that was the source material - but it was just too much to be entertaining. I don't feel that way with She-Hulk. And yes, Margaret Atwood fans: I am comparing her books to She-hulk comics. Take that! Edited September 29, 2022 by Dr. Balls silverseeker, Larryw7 and piper 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take that! The issue with Handmaid’s Tale is there is only one book, that is basically covered in season one. Everything after that was not written by the original author. I liked the first season, stopped like 4 episodes into season 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lpgk Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Episode 7 was hilarious. Looks like the show has found it's groove. Love the C list villains. jsilverjanet and Dr. Balls 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back the changes made to the Dorne storyline should have been a massive red flag. There is just so much evidence that when a show based on a specific IP runs out of material but keeps going, things turn to spoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
