So, a question I thought of and need to revisit the episode to look more closely: are the "credits" for the show real credits (feature actual people working for Marvel Studios and making the D+ show) or are they also characters? I think Darcy was watching the credits for the "show" run on the TV and I'm wondering if those relate to the characters trapped in Westview versus just being real people.
Having watched close enough to see if there are fake credits versus real one.
How awesome was that episode! I was shocked from the beginning to the end and I definitely was not expecting that opening scene. Also, when Wanda saw Vision's dead body...yikes. I definitely think this episode will clear up all the confusion people had. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Wow. What an episode. So I guess that Wanda can control reality outside the bubble simultaneously as inside given they pulled the “jump rope” out of the bubble. Or I guess she has the ability to physically alter matter not just change the perception.
If the show is indeed 6 hours worth of content including credits then the remaining episodes will have to average 45 minutes. Obviously there is some give and take and it’s unlikely to be exactly 6 hours.

Well, it's definitely interesting that some (most?) people outside the bubble had their memories and senses impacted in terms of being able to appreciate Westview's existence.
All the SWORD agents there seemed to not have that problem. I wonder if it only affected people who were near Westview when it was created/changed but people coming from outside the area now don't get impacted.
But clearly, this should have been the second episode.
They should have done one hour with three 20-minute segments in each time period as the first episode setting up the mystery. Then this episode picks up from Endgame showing more of what was such a fascinating question - what would it be like for 'regular' people when they returned from the blip? Incredible watching people 'recompose', the chaos, and yet a key to Tony's agreement with Hulk was that everyone would be brought back safely (and no one new lost) - so we didn't see people recomposing in unsafe ways (inside new construction, inside other people passing in spaces where they had blipped, in the middle of the air if they were flying, etc.). Great to get that little glimpse.
Maria - so sad! And Monica didn't even get to say goodbye! - But I'm curious why they went with cancer (is that from comics?), assuming that's
going to be part of Jane Foster's story as Mighty Thor in Love and Thunder? I think Natalie Portman already mentioned it in an interview, but whether she was referring to it as the comics storyline or the movie storyline I don't think has been clarified yet.
DR. Darcy Lewis! A total surprise - and yet - who would have more insight, having been Jane's assistant? She's had five years to earn that degree. I admittedly LOVED normal everyday sidekick Darcy (and I adore Kat Dennings), but when this kind of life and world-changing experience hits (the blip), sometimes even kids choose to grow up. I approve this choice.
Glad Jimmy Woo is still adorkable Jimmy Woo. He fills the Coulson role nicely.
Teyonah is BADASS as the real Monica - I loved her instantly - from grieving daughter to confident captain and agent. Can't wait to see more of her in action!
Vision! We're not going to get to keep this unusual couple together at the end of this, are we? Guessing the kids will survive though - we need Wiccan and Speed for the next generation of films. Maybe Phase 6.

A little warning: there are major leaks going around on social media of the 90's/Halloween episode. You can mute certain words on Twitter if you want to avoid them.
Yeah, this is quickly becoming my favorite thing Marvel has done. The way EVERYTHING is tying in, and how they are showing the breakdowns, this is just straight amazing to me. And it is so different from everything else.

The non sitcom episodes should definitely be at least 45min. I really don't like how the Disney plus shows thus far whether marvel or star wars have had such varying run times. I had the same problem with season 1 of Mando it always felt like the episodes were ending just as it was getting good. season 2 got a little better with the runtimes but they were still inconsistent. And WandaVision is just all the over the place in that regard. ugh. I wonder if its a budget constraint thing? Having to decide between episode length and visual effects and what not.
I feel like this could be the direction their going in. So many Wanda stans on twitter get annoyed if you so much as mention the very notion of Wanda going mad lol. Even though everything that we've seen in the show so far indicates that is the direction they are going in. Until we see evidence that suggests otherwise Wanda going mad is the prevailing theory.
