The Somewhat Unsurprising Reveal
d-templeton19 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This episode was not as action packed as the last couple but continued to bring plenty of mystery and drama.

Elizabeth Olsen's Julie Bowenesque performance seemed to perfectly mirror Clair Dunphy from modern family as her, vision, the boys and Agatha broke the fourth wall on a regular basis.

The boys have vanished. Seemingly at the hands of Agatha Harkness (Agnes). This will be a familiar plot line for comic readers but will be a surprise to some. The episode ends with Wanda asking for their whereabouts only for it to be made clear that Agnes has been 'running the show' the entire time. Hopefully we will discover their whereabouts next week.

It remains to be seen whether she can manipulate reality or whether she's just been manipulating Wanda. Either way, she's going to be a somewhat powerful villain.

Darcy and Vision's interactions were meaningful but didn't drive the plot forwards.

Monica has definitely gained her super powers. And while we are on the subject of Monica, there is a post credit scene worth watching. She is looking for Wanda when she is confronted by 'Pietro' - another identity which could be revealed next week. (Maybe Mephisto??)

Overall, another engaging week of WandaVision and it's no surprise this is the most talked about series on TV at the moment. Bring on next week.

I thought this episode was kinda slow but the ending made up for it.

I didn't even want the Agatha Harkness theories to be true as I thought Wanda doing it all was pretty tragic and powerful, however this doesn't change that fact. Plus the montage at the end was just so freaking hilarious that I just... Idk. It was just magnificent. My only problem is there is only two episodes left.... And still so much to get through.

Holy hell the reveals
harry-3451819 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This episode drops so many answers in its final 3 minutes I am shocked. The sword and the sit com stuff was great and for once we had an end credit sequence. KAt Dennings and Paul Bettany stole the show for me with Kathryn hahn also doing an amazing job. I do also want to say this episodes length works I feel that if it was longer it would not have worked aswell. The reveals: Agnes is Agatha Harkness- from the very start of wandavision people felt that Agnes was infact Agatha including myself. But a series of misdirects made people feel otherwise. The reveal is so well done and the credit sequence 'Agatha all along' is amazing. Monica begins to get her powers- It was hinted at for the past two episodes but nothing really happened until today's episode where we got to see her use her some of her powers. The sequence which lead to her getitng her powers was amazing and visually stunning. Hayward has an evil plan- Whilst we don't know fully we do know that he has some sort of plan and i'm excited to see where they take it. Darcy's westview role- Kat Dennigns is very funny in this episode and she does a great job. However I feel that the escape artist idea wasn't utilized very well. One problem with this episode is the sit com charm is gone vision is done with it, Wanda is done with it even saying its meaningless

Emmy Nomination for Elizabeth Olsen and Kathryn Hahn!!
buntybc19 February 2021
Vision-dacry duo was very funny and dynamic, Elizabeth is giving best acting in each episode! Kathryn must win supporting actress, She is so good in her character! Cinemetography is good in terms of MCU quality, colors and lighting is matched to the funny and dramatic scenes, colors are not too light, or dark or too much over saturated, Perfect to the scenes. Direction is unique in every episode and it entertaining show! MUST WATCH FOR ANY COMIC BOOK FAN, ITS UNIQUE TONE GIVEN TO 2 VERY POWERFULL SUPERHEROS IN MARVEL.

Yo this episode is everything. It's been Agatha all along, I mean who didn't see that coming. But this episode shows next episode is going to be bonkers. Even though this episode is kinda slow it's still pretty enjoyable. The ending is amazing. Also, don't skip there is finally a credit scene.

BEST EPISODE YET!
walkerj-3241219 February 2021
Those who are just rating it 1 or 2 stars are out of their mind. This episode is literally all plot moving forward with minimal sitcom stuff outside of the style. Lots of good reveals/scenes and can't wait for next week.

ICONIC ENDING SONG
cs-1099319 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This episode was a filler episode but the ending makes this episode perfect! Agatha's song was amazing and it created a deeper love for a character that we were unsure about. Other moments in this show prove that this show is getting better and better, like Monica discovering her powers, Vision and Darcy's dialogue, etc.. This was a great episode!!

The weakest episode so far, but biggest reveal
namstonk19 February 2021
So more high jinx and comedy and less drama and even less actual action. The true highlight being the final minute and a half which is a delight, obvious but still a delight. However we also get the weakest character Monica Rambeau/Photon played by the wooden Teyonah Parris more screen time than most which is annoying. As usual though you are left with more questions than answers, which isn't a bad thing. However there are only two episodes left which does seem a rather short amount of time to nicely answer all the questions, hopefully they will be hour long episodes as not to feel rushed.

It's been Agatha all along!!!! 😈
bhirschhoab19 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This episode to me tops all of the other episodes! The reveal of Agnes being, as we all suspected it and obviously knew, Agatha Harkness!! And Monica getting her photon or spectrum powers, Darcy Lewis working with vision, and the whole modern day, the office etc. tribute! No I do understand all of you that says that this is too short. I feel the same way too but I promise it will get even better from here because that's all the show has been doing from the start! I can't wait for the more shocking reveals we get in the next two weeks!

I'm a little confused...
itwperiod23 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Great episode as always, visuals were amazing, story was great, and that Agatha thing was pretty surprising...

The way they were building it up, I thought Wanda was gonna be the villain, but suddenly in this episode she isn't? Also I thought the story was that Wanda took vision and made the reality bubble thing, but apparently Agnes was running it the whole time. I'm sorry but how does that make any sense? Wanda has control of this thing and expanded it at will. Also isn't she still a villain? I don't know.

I hope next Friday's episode clears this up. I love this series though.

The problem with spoofing sitcoms every episode
dmmart-2862420 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Sitcoms are super predictable. The whole episode you know Wanda is denying there is a problem and will have to face her issues head on like any other sitcom trope. So to have 90% of her screen time being in this denial was irritating to me. And while I enjoyed Vision and Darcy's interaction together all I was thinking the whole time is how vision literally flew all over Westview in episode 6 so why is he waiting in traffic in a food truck? Lastly the big reveal at the end wasn't shocking in the slightest and I'm not a comic book person. Her constant presence and the the fact that Kathryn Hahn is way too big of an actress to not have a bigger role meant there had to be more going on. After how exciting episodes 5 and 6 were, 7 fell flat for me.

STRONGEST EPISODE YET!
nikssniks19 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
THAT TWIST OMG! Even though, it was expected to see Agnes as Agatha, Kathryn Hahn's acting was phenomenal! That transformation from a noisy neighbor to a crazy witch was incredible! Don't even get me started on Elizabeth's acting! She is just impeccable!!! Interactions between her and Monica was so intense and powerful! Her overwhelming rage and anger towards Monica! That scene was one of my favorites from the entire show! I was also presently surprised and happy to see that Monica used her powers in order to not get CRUSHED on the ground by Wanda! S.W.O.R.D and Hayward are working their way to get their hands on Vision While Agatha and possibly Mephisto are trying to get through Wanda in order to posses her MASSIVE power!

Cannot wait to see the next episode! What happened to the twins? Who is this Pietro? Will Monica and Wanda resist the control of Agatha? And most importantly... will Darcy and Vision EVER get to them? Next episode will be PACKED with action and i know it!

Just for that reveal theme Song alone! The acting is amazing in the episode all around. Love the sitcom trope of breaking the fourth wall. The mid credit scene. I don't know why I ever doubt marvel. The show started great and keeps getting better. Can't wait to see where it leads.

Episode 7
bobcobb3013 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
We finally got a big storyline development, but the episode itself lacked the proper snark and cleverness with The Office/Modern Family parody they were going for.

The episode is AMAZING, one of the best things I've seen in my life. Watch it, but there is a post credits-scene so be careful.

Breaking the Fourth Wall
lassegalsgaard19 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
So, I can't say that I was disappointed by this episode, because what I expected to happen did happen. However, I did not want what happened to happen. I think it takes away from the complexity of the show and the deeper sides of Wanda's character. With that said, it also makes a lot of sense to do it this way. And aside from that, I thought the rest of the episode was quite enjoyable. I liked how they captured the sitcoms of the '10s, and I think Monica is becoming more and more interesting of a character whose future I'm excited to see. It is going to be interesting to see where they take the show now. I would lie if I said that I was not a little bumped to see certain things not happening, but hey, that is why I do not write this show.

Full on modern sitcom now
evansjoshyr20 February 2021
The episode was very much in the style of shows like 'the office' and 'modern family'. It is the first sitcom episode without a laugh track and the comedy feels far more up to date. I know this episode has many exciting reveals, but I don't think we should take the structure of the show for granted. The fact that the sitcom evolves every episode is a genius idea. Not only does it pay homage to each decade, but it also makes every episode feel fresh.

This is a special kind of creative show that will probably be rewatched in years to come
