I enjoyed the Deadpool movies, I love Mel Brooks, and I can laugh at Monty Python -but I'm not sure that I understand the intent here. It's a bit odd to spend an entire season building plot and story arcs just to handwave, end the season, and seemingly just use Jen's show as a stepping stone to telling Hulk's next story.I dunno... just weird to me that so much effort would be put into establishing how/why she's her own character with her own story, just to circle back on that and erase that effort. In a way, it felt like they did the work of almost empowering a strong female lead just to say, "eh, nevermind." The end result was to make me feel as though I shouldn't have spent time investing in the story.If the intent was comedy, it fell flat for me. If the intent was to "subvert expectations" (as is often said,) it instead came across as openly admitting to not knowing how to wrap up the season. Yeah, I know that stuff like this happens in the comics. I don't particularly like it there either.</blockquote>
