Very entertaining episode this week and IN COLOR! Loved the 70's look. This show is keeping me interested and wanting to find out more.

Just started this. I'm intrigued enough to continue, even tho those two characters were not my favorites of the MCU.

I kept thinking as I watched it how many people aren't going to get the references. The Dick Van Dyke show, I Love Lucy, Bewitched, The Brady Bunch - you pretty much have to be over 40 to really get it.

Having said that, we were amazed at how they really studied those old shows. Even the camera angles were spot on to the originals.

Yeah, my wife and I are getting the homage. The kids are lost and have no idea what we're talking about.

They really nailed the Dick Van Dyke set. Most of it was correct.

I'm surprised they didn't use the actual Brady Bunch house.

HGTV probably made them a demand and Disney thought wasn't worth the price.

It's so different and intriguing, that I love it. I can feel that something huge is building up that is going to burst. Not being too familiar with Wanda and Vision in the comics, I have no clue what may be happening (and I'm glad). So I'm loving it.

I can understand why many people are claiming this is boring, but people need to remember that this is a story. It is obvious that they are building up something big. Be patient and enjoy the ride. I appreciate buildup as opposed to action from the start.

Agreed. In hindsight, I suspect this show will be much more enjoyable as a binge-watch than just watching one episode per week.

I kind of find it nice to be kept guessing. For once not seeing the plot/storylines coming a mile away. Whats the last show that did that for you?

I'm really enjoying this, especially the homages to the older TV shows (and how faithfully they recreated those styles!) Plus, Paul Bettany is so adorkable as Vision.

If the '80's' episodes spoofs "Full House", however, I may just die laughing.
