Sorry about the double post, but somehow I couldn't edit the previous message.

I want to talk about Captain Carter for a second. While I enjoyed what she brought to the table in the last episode, it really rubs me the wrong way that she has otherwise gone beat-for-beat the same path as main-timeline Captain America. Also I didn't remember Hayley Atwell's accent being this thick and I'm not entirely sure why. I'm getting a feeling she isn't terribly used to voice acting, although maybe someone will enlighten me. Something still feels lost in the transition to animation with her (and uh no it's not just her you-know-what), though it's probably an issue with the character of Captain Carter compared to Peggy in the main timeline.

While I am ashamed at what I specifically said about Atwell and Johansson in the other topic, I was more trying to convey how attached I've gotten to both actresses and their takes on the characters they play in the MCU. I'm honestly kind of astonished this is the case given I haven't seen Agent Carter or The Winter Soldier, but I suppose that's all the more reason to get to them! I was trying to say what I said in a way that wouldn't objectify either actress and evidently I did a terrible job.

With the eighth episode, honestly the only thing I really liked was watching Natasha and Clint interact. This series is far from horrible but it feels hit-and-miss at best, and little more than an excuse to milk established storylines and satisfy fans who didn't like some aspects of the main timeline. Sorry if this sounds cynical, but in fairness I'm far from the only one with reservations about Phase 4. And anyway I was largely fine with Wandavision, didn't hate Black Widow as much as some here did, and mostly just found Loki boring because it took place mostly in hallways and offices.
