Daniel has been right enough time. Gunn is probably discrediting him because he knows he may be right. But who knows. Gunn could be right. Point is, it goes both ways.

Looks like Echo is Boring from what reviewers are saying on X.

So far I've watched 3 episodes, I'm close enough that I may as well force myself to finish it. 😑

Still haven't seen it. Heard it is bad. Typical Twitter/X overreacting like with every CBM project lately. It's probably top 3 D+ shows ngl.

What a big bag of nothing. I don't need all of these shows to have brilliant multi-layered storytelling, however it would be nice to have the bare minimum of a compelling story with interesting characters, and this show simply does not have that.
I didn't feel like Maya was an interesting enough character to be able to carry her own show, and this show hasn't done much to change my mind on that front. Although Alaqua Cox tries her best here, the character is written to be very dull and distant with not much real personality or anything that's really interesting about her. She displays little emotion other than looking angry and pissed off for 95% of the show's runtime. The narrative here is blatantly incomplete, with everything from her backstory and her family lineage, to her conflict with Kingpin's army, all feels extremely underdeveloped. The pacing and editing are spotty as fuck, it seriously feels like they gave up halfway through the editing process and decided to just shovel it out as is without sinking anymore money into it.
Also, I don't know why this is rated TV-MA? It seems like they had it slapped with that rating exclusively as a marketing gimmick. It's maybe just a tick more violent than Falcon and Winter Soldier or Secret Invasion. One thing that this show could've had going for it was the fight scenes. Unfortunately, they have little weight and urgency, because they just aren't filmed, edited, or choreographed all that well. They wind up being just as dull and nondescript as the rest of this bland-ass show. It pulls out the MCU TV staple of having a rushed and undercooked slugfest finale that doesn't feel earned or set up properly. Seriously, the Ms. Marvel series is beginning to look like a masterpiece with all the shitty D+ shows they've put out after it.
I will say that Vincent D'Onofrio as Kingpin is easily the best and most compelling aspect of this show, but he ultimately doesn't have enough screentime to be able to save this. Also, the sound design does a nice job and conveying how Maya views the world and her surroundings. It's real frustrating, because much like Secret Invasion before it, this has pieces of something that could've been interesting if it was competently made. I'm officially burned out on MCU TV shows after this.

I had enough of Marvel shows after She-Hulk.

Nah, even Carol Danvers has more personality.
