She-Hulk: Attorney at Law trailer

that makes sense

I really enjoyed it.
Some jokes I didn't get ( non-USA / non-young viewer).

 

[Paul Farquhar]

Some of the jokes certainly failed to make it across the Atlantic.

That intro was fun! I'm glad they gave that too us before the season ended.

That was the only part of the last episode that I liked. Loved the series up until the finale.

Also side note, Did anyone else wonder why Jen had her job back at the end of the show? Like I was under the impression that she lost her job because of the bad PR from her "Hulk out" at the end of episode eight. How does sueing the naughty words who provoked her magically fix that? Just a minor quibble overall but it annoyed me.

The bad guy was caught and the charges against her were dismissed. I got the impression that they realized that she was set up and it really wasn't her fault, and unlike the Hulk, she calmed down as soon as she was outside and someone told her to. All of that combined = forgiven.

The super 4th wall break at the end could have been really cool, and I liked the Kevin bot. But ultimately the ending fell flat.

So after all of our cool little character development with Emil...he's a bad guy again? Was he even aware he was at an intelligencia gathering (which would have major implications for his relationships with jen, talk about a breach of trust), or was he just doing a speaking engagements about "achieving your dream" having no idea what the dream was? Its really not clear.

So the stealing of She-Hulk's blood meant nothing? I'm all for not just having another villain with superpowers, but it seems like that plotline is just dropped now? They could have at least done something else with that for the villain to keep it relevant.

Ultimately the show made it seem like Jen was entirely innocent in all of this, that is was all Intelligencia's fault. But....Jen's destructive outburst WAS HER FAULT. It was horrific what happened to her, but at the end of the day she destroyed private property (could have brought the building down if she had gotten unlucky and that had been a more weight supporting wall), she scared a crapton of innocent people (imagine someone walking into a mall waving a gun. Even if they don't shoot someone, that is NOT ok). Effectively what Bruce warned her about (and what she blew off at the beginning of the show) came to pass, as a Hulk, you don't get to have a bad day, you don't get to lose control because of mean things people do to you. When you hulk out of control....people can die, and that is an ENORMOUS responsibility. But the show plays it off as if Jen did nothing wrong....and that's not right.

So ultimately the show just ended on a flat note to me, as so many of the marvel shows seemed to do nowaways.

I mean ... your issue with the ending was ... the point, right?

Jen didn't do anything wrong.

And if we really think about it, get right into it, we have a standard for one Hulk ... you know, who truly has done some deplorable things and yet not only gets forgiven for it is but is a member of the Avengers, and another standard for She-Hulk, who was expertly set up on by some terrible men and was publicly humiliated in the worst possible fashion in front of every professional she works with along with her family ... and she should be punished even more?

It's almost ... almost ... like there's a difference in how male and female anger are viewed as appropriate and/or forgivable.

(Now, I still think that the ending isn't for everyone; not everyone likes breaking the fourth wall, and the particular way that this show did so and subverted narrative expectations about how the show was supposed to tied up plot points and supposed to have the big bad fight can be off-putting. I can respect that. But I do think that the intention of the show w/r/t the message was fairly unambiguous.)

I don't think he is a bad guy again. He is a slimy coach that breaks the law to do lectures as abomination. He didn't know they were inteligencia, but was arrested for braking his parole. If he was a bad guy again I doubt Wong would've saved him.

Agreed. IIRC, when Hulk comes in, Jen briefly tries to stop the two from fighting before breaking the Fourth Wall. I remember thinking while watching it, "Oh no, Emil's part of the baddies," but then understanding that he was just the hired coach.

I mean, Emil picked her up to get her away from the men so she wouldn't have to turn into She-Hulk to defend herself and break the law. He's got a lackadaisical attitude to the Law, but he knows Jen doesn't.
