Ms. Marvel: Time and Again (2022)
Another brutal episode
It's clear the directors have no clue. The actors are lost. Characters reacting to situations in unfathomable ways (namely, Kamala's mom). More cliche dialogue. Just hard to watch. I cry for the MCU.
Ms. Marvel: Seeing Red (2022)
Worst directing/editing/writing of anything in the MCU
Unbelievably poor episode. Nickelodeon quality. Would name examples, but it was almost the whole damn episode. Everything with the ClanDestines, the red scarf folks, etc. Brutal action sequences. Embarrassing. As an MCU junkie, this breaks my heart. The show started so well.
Ms. Marvel: Destined (2022)
Worst fight scene in the MCU
The big fight scene was, from start to finish, Nickelodeon quality, as though directed by a film student. Just exceedingly bad, from a writing, directing, and acting standpoint. Much of the episode was largely OK before this abysmal finale.
What If...? (2021)
"For kids" tone, bad jokes, Disney Prince faces, not engaging
Some of the premises in the show are cool and thought provoking, but if you're like me and love the MCU for its mix of dark tone with sharp jokes, you'll be disappointed. Has a decidedly kids-show feel, with the exception of a few moments/episodes.
This Is Us (2016)
One of the worst shows I've seen
This show is horrible. It's what you get when the writers seemingly set out to make the audience cry each episode. It seeks to be real but it's all melodrama. Also really difficult to look at the 450-pound woman. An embarrassment to the medium.
Middleditch & Schwartz (2020)
Would Be Better If Duo Were Funny
A show like this works MUCH better when the performers are funny and talented.
Space Force (2020)
One of the worst shows ever
Astonishingly bad. Horrendous joke-writing. Against the backdrop of sky-high production value and striking art direction, the poor writing is all the more glaring. Carell is shackled by the muted and ill-defined Mark Naird, speaking in a voice that makes him seem like he ought to be one of Michael Scott's characters. The cast is sensational, but not a single actor sells their character. Painful. Can't decide on a tone, bobbing between farcical and cartoonish and wry political satire. Eyes watered with embarrassment several times. Apocalyptically bad.
