Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ogre Mage" data-source="post: 8801188" data-attributes="member: 3404">Thoughts having seen the entire season ...--Tatiana Maslany was consistently excellent as both Jennifer Walters and She-Hulk.  Her work on Orphan Black suggested she could handle an alter ego character adroitly and she did.  Her casting suggests the creators were going for a sharp contrast between the Jen Walters/She-Hulk personas.  Whereas casting someone like Gwendoline Christie would have suggested an equivalence between the two.  Hopefully we will see more of Maslany.--The series effectively introduced Daredevil into the MCU.  He's less angsty and more powerful than he was on the Netflix series, but that was to be expected given this is the MCU and the show is She-Hulk: Attorney At Law.  I do expect him to be a bit darker on his solo show in 2024.  Charlie Cox adjusted well to this lighter tone and he and Tatiana Maslany have great chemistry on screen. Given that Daredevil/Matt Murdock returned during the finale and even attended a backyard barbecue with Jen's family (!) I think it is likely we will see these two together again in future shows/movies.--The writing of the show was uneven and the pace sometimes felt disjointed and rushed.  I can forgive that somewhat because She-Hulk was so willing to take chances, especially in the finale, which was unexpected and wild to say the least.  It was a show that did NOT follow the standard MCU blueprint.  I remember the She-Hulk fourth wall breaks from the comics but I had forgotten they sometimes got that extreme.--I think the fact the show deviated so far from the MCU blueprint is why some people didn't like it.  It was basically a 1/2 hour sitcom with relatively low stakes that happened to exist within the MCU.  It wasn't what we are used to.  But I like the change.  I grew up in the era before prestige TV watching the sitcoms of the 1980s and 90s.  It was fun to see this within the MCU.  Not everything has to be stories where the world or the hero's life/loved one is at stake.--Perhaps having seen the attacks against Captain Marvel and Ms. Marvel, She-Hulk correctly anticipated the backlash from certain (mostly male) quarters of the Internet and made them the principal villains of the season.  I found this amusing, though incels probably didn't.</blockquote>
