Malcom in the Middle premiered in January of 2000. Everything before 9/11 is still spiritually the 90s.

If it makes you feel better it was just as much Alf as Malcom, and Alf just barely scrapped into the 90s.

As for Quicksilver, I think this ep puts a damper on the idea that he's actually Foxsilver bringing the X-men into the MCU. Seems more like it's just a meta-reference and he's the same Pietro body as ATJ. but as speculated his consciousness may well be someone not on Wanda's agenda at all. He makes note of Vision being dead already causing Wanda to push him away, did I miss one of the kids telling him that? Not sure how he would know otherwise, seems like a red flag.

I think it's too early to write it off. In the same way Monica took on a new persona, Foxsilver could have been altered as well. Like it's physically Foxsilver, but Wanda has implanted him with all her memories of MCUsilver.

What would have even been the family sitcom of the 90's? All I can think of is Full House and Home Improvement and I feel like the aesthetic of Full House was already basically covered by the previous episode (and it started in the 80's anyway).

After doing a Google of 90's sitcoms earlier, im pretty sure Home Improvement was they only one contained to the 90's(there might have been one other one but I don't recall at the moment.)

fresh prince feels more '80s, even though it started in '90.

but yeah, malcolm feels '90s, even though it started in '00, so it's fine i guess.

i do wonder if next week, they'll go to the '10s or if they'll do a more typically '00s sitcom first.

My thoughts as I just watch through this

I think the sitcom tones are nailed sooooo perfectly. The sets, the mannerisms, the attitudes. The openings and commercials and stuff are phenomenal. The attention to detail deserves so much praise, this doesn't feel low effort at all. As Deadpool might say, this is Maximoff Effort.

There's a bit of a problem I have with it though.... I feel like the very early scene where Wanda and Vision are chatting before Vis goes off to his first day at work is ABSOLUTELY pitch perfect. All of the jokes they make are absolutely in the sticom era style, but completely work in the modern context of Wanda and Vision's superhuman / non human natures, AND is actually funny. That's the tightrope they have to walk here - pay homage to the original style, work in tandem with what's currently happening and not just force everything to fit the norms of when the old sitcoms were actually made, and actually be funny. "I say well I don't eat food." "Well that explains the empty refrigerator" and the mannerisms Vision makes when he takes his disguise to go off to work and then blows a kiss to Wanda captures this perfectly. Vision's desk mate at work does this very well too. He talks around Vision's questions and feels like a guy from that era and is an entertaining guy on top of it. (And later on in ep 5 he has a very well acted harrowing moment) Nailing this note consistently is what would make this show a greatest of all time masterpiece.

I'm not so sure it consistently does this though. At times I think it's just doing sitcom tropes to show it can do them. I thought most of the boss and his wife visiting in ep1 and the magic show in ep 2 were kinda like this. I didn't think they were that funny and including other elements of the show as much as they could be.

That said, I'm overall loving this. It's very clear Wanda is acting very villainous, and how much blame she gets for this I guess comes down to how aware of what she's doing she is. Early on it seems not so aware, but it as the show goes on it seems she's very aware, and her confrontation with the SWORD people seems pretty undeniable.

But I love how Vision's nature as a hero shines through at every opportunity as he's trying to piece together what's going on. He's great, and the resulting tension between Vision and Wanda perfectly slides back in and out of the sitcom tone.

I really like the trio of Agent Woo, Darcy, and Monica Rambeau. I think there's a lot of potential there. The leader guy was alright to begin with but they are just pushing him way too much as the "boneheaded military guy who aggravates and escalates every situation just because he's the boneheaded military guy".

...Is Pietro played by the Fox X-Men Quicksilver's actor????

I think people ITT might be reading a bit too much into townspeoples behaviours. It seems they have varying levels of conscious and subsconsious awareness of Wanda controlling the town, so they sometimes subconsciously slip something that implies whats going on (like the mailman or whatever saying Wanda will find the dog or whatever when the kids are looking for it) or directly when people like Agnes or Herb ask her directly if she needs them to do something related to the meta.

Though there are some convincing coincidences with Agnes, I still lean away from her being any sort of cause though.

He's a lot of fun in basically every scene. The way he talks with the kids *oozes* the 90ies attitude this episodes meant to show, and his meta commentary with Wanda was great. It'll be interesting to see if that's just because for whatever reason he just inherently is aware what's going on or if he actually is an agent of someone else pulling strings. Either way, he majorly crossed the line with the dead husband comment.

Overall he's just doing a great job here, more so than he ever had a chance to display in the movies... his speedster scenes was awesome but I don't think he ever really got to have normal scenes.

Well, the X-Men movies are so full of characters and he's a secondary one at best so, yeah, he hasn't really gotten a chance to shine on his own.

I wish there had been something with a Married With Children vibe to show that things aren't going well in the Maximoff household anymore.

Basically I just wanted Vision to tuck his hand into his pants like Al Bundy, and that would tell us everything we needed to know about the status of their relationship.

https://twitter.com/IndieWire/status/1361087831624486913

i mean, i kinda agree that the show keeps asking more and more questions while answering very little. with just three episodes left, it's going to take a lot of work to get around to answering everything.

i'm still on board but i hope it hasn't completely fallen apart when everything is said and done.

It reminded me of Pete and Pete and Clarissa Explains it all, both 90's Nick sitcoms that had kids that spoke to the camera a lot. Never saw Malcom myself.
