So, Wandavision?

[pukunui]

Yeah, I’m confused about Agnes. It does appear she’s under Wanda’s control and yet she also seems to know what’s going on.

It also seems maybe Herb does too.

And Pietro, if it really is him, definitely knows what’s going on.

So what about that terrifying ad? It was oh so very 90s claymation but I don’t get the reference. Is it just “yo-magic” as in “your magic” and is implying that Wanda’s magic is killing everyone?

I'm leaning towards Yo-Magic is Wanda's magic keeping them all alive but they are slowly withering away because they need food. Subconsciously she knows this and that's why it's in the commercial.

As Vision went further from the centre of town people became progressively less animated, until the ones near the edge were totally unresponsive.

And yet, even though Agnes had gone as far as it was possible to go, and clearly had no remaining volition to go further, she was still conscious enough to respond to Vision's questioning.

Is it because she wasn't meant to be off the map, and therefore wasn't outside of Wanda's awareness the way the others were? Or was it something about Agnes herself?

"Hungry? I remember hungry. I used to be like that all the time."
"What did you do?"
"Snacked on yo' magic, bro."

Something's preying on Wanda's magic? And if it continues she'll shrivel to a husk?

Not for me, I feel like the anticipation is a big part of what makes it so fun. I'm glad a lot of streaming shows (Besides the MCU shows, I'm thinking of The Mandalorian and The Boys) have moved to a weekly format.

Yeah. Looking forward to it is part of the fun, and the shared experience lasts longer than a few days.

It clearly adds to the suspense and I do enjoy trying to figure things out in between episodes. The timeframe just feels too long for me in the age of streaming. But, if that's the worst of it then I reckon I'll survive.

I think the full-season-dump will be a thing of the past soon. And rightly so!

It's almost as if television show executives knew what they were doing with the old weekly format for serialized drama.

I mean, I'm sure the random maniacal laughter didn't really mean anything

I believe it was more of a cackle than a laugh.

 

[embee]

Probably nothing but...

Who is "Ellis"?

The twins aren't allowed past Ellis Avenue and at the 20 minute mark, the camera lingers on the stop sign at the corner, which winds up saying "Stop Ellis."

That shot can't be an accident.

The fact that the kid couldn't access "Yo' Magic" and died is almost certainly relevant.
