Expect some divisive audience reactions for the first couple weeks.
From the gestalt of the reviews the first half of the season is VERY much a slow burn sitcom that worships and respects the shows it emulates.
I’m not saying this is a bad thing ultimately, but I expect some people who have no touch point for I love Lucy, Bewitched and Brady Bunch to struggle for the next few weeks. The 80’s sitcoms should at least be reasonably ‘ok’ nostalgia for modern audiences.... and the back half of the season I’m sure will look much more typical Marvel.
I think the show will do well simply because of all the pent up demand and audience respect. Ironically I feel like non-Marvel fans might dig this more than some Marvel ones.

Bettany: “I get to work with an actor that’s going to be a surprise for everybody. I’ve been wanting to work with this actor forever who is just unbelievable and we have some real fireworks together.”
Also Bettany: “Marvel has always taken big swings, but we’re a really big swing,” states Bettany. “There are more VFX shots in WandaVision than we had in Avengers: Endgame. That’s a big ask.”
And director Matt Shakman: “Law and Order this is not. This was not six months of shooting people walking down the same hallway. Kevin Feige was really clear from the beginning that this show would be very different but it would also be as Marvel as anything else they’d ever made – including some of the biggest set pieces they’ve ever done.”

Seen both episodes. Very well done. I can't wait for the rest of them to drop weekly.
If the rest of the D+ Marvel shows are done the same we have much to look forward to....

Marvel needs to borrow LucasFilms' "Volumes"!

They put one in Australia for "Love and Thunder." I'd keep an ear out for one being installed in Atlanta as that's where a lot of Marvel gets shot.
