She Hulk Season 1

At first I didn’t really like She-Hulk because I was coming off the more serious Marvel shows and it just felt different. But I rewatched it later with the right expectations and honestly, it grew on me a lot. It’s actually pretty funny, works well as a legal comedy, and the tone makes way more sense when you treat it like a Marvel version of Ally McBeal (which I love). Once I stopped expecting it to be another dark MCU series, I ended up really enjoying it.

She Hulk was fun as hell.

Drago_1332026-01-23 15:31

This it was stupid and dumb and very entertaining. Was it great story tellin? Not particularly but I enjoyed my time watching it regardless

black_metronome2026-01-23 16:15

She Hulk was one of the most comic accurate MCU projects in my opinion that checked all the boxes for me.

Fun stories? Check. Silliness? Check? 4th wall breaks? Check? Beautiful women? Check check check!

fistkick182026-01-23 17:09

We don't like hot ladies in our comic thing because it makes me feel weird about myself!

black_metronome2026-01-23 21:29

Yeah that is quite a skill issue

DryReceptacle2026-01-23 16:43

What was wrong with the story tellin?

Bigpappa362026-01-23 15:48

Agreed, I’ve watched it twice and loved it, my only critique is they could have more courtroom drama/humor but that’s small critique, it’s a shame she probably wont be back in the mcu with her publicly shaming Disney

black_metronome2026-01-23 16:13

Yeah but frankly I don't blame Tatiana for not coming back, the fans behaved like a bunch of ass holes over a show that was supposed to be fun and light hearted like the comics.

Bigpappa362026-01-23 16:48

Agreed, especially the whole Meg the stallion, I mean it was bit ridiculous but it’s 30 seconds and it was funny

black_metronome2026-01-23 21:29

Meg is absolutely stunning so I did not mind at all!

Gamer06072026-01-23 14:13

She-Hulk is by far the worst MCU project for me.

It was absolute pain going through it and I'll likely never go anywhere near it again.

KrifeH2026-01-23 14:16

nah watching Echo bc someone told you DD is in it is the worst easily

elpajaroquemamais2026-01-23 14:17

Secret invasion would like a word

IBJON2026-01-23 14:19

Secret what now?

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:38

Yes, please let that one remain a secret

Gambitismyheart2026-01-23 14:29

I watched the first episode and never watched the rest.

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:38

You missed nothing of consequence

Gambitismyheart2026-01-23 14:42

I've been told. I was just really pissed off with what they did to Hill and I couldn't continue. She deserved so much better. Smh

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:47

Hard agree.

elpajaroquemamais2026-01-23 15:07

Yep. She deserved a big stage death

Gambitismyheart2026-01-23 14:28

Echo was awful. They should've gotten a lead that could actually act.

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:40

Eh, I liked Echo. It had the same bad disney green studio low production quality as Book of Boba Fett, so the action was shit, but I rather enjoy the story and acting.

Mortiis072026-01-23 14:21

Ok Todd

Bigbigbigrock2026-01-23 14:21

Dan Slott, the guy who's praised for his She-Hulk comics, had this to say on the show

"Anyone saying the @SheHulkOfficial TV show wasn’t “comic book accurate”…I’m the guy who has written more issues of SHE-HULK than anyone. I’ve read every single comic from every #SheHulk run. And I’m saying, for the record, it is the MOST comic book accurate show in the MCU."

Terflog2026-01-23 14:15

Good thing we never have to worry about this show again

HereWeFuckingGooo2026-01-23 14:16

Why were you expecting a light-hearted comedy to be dark?

FictionFantom2026-01-23 16:46

The show touches on some pretty dark and/or serious subject matter. Her sex tape was leaked, for instance. It still bothers me that Josh wasn’t in handcuffs at the end.

Ultimately I think the show had all the right ingredients but imo it just needed more episodes to properly settle in and find its definitive voice. Sometimes it would have this somewhat bitter sociopolitical tone and then other times it would be a fun legal procedural. More episodes would’ve helped balance that out I think.

HermanThaGerman2026-01-23 17:56

>it just needed more episodes to properly settle in and find its definitive voice.

This is the reason I'm not super stoked on all the Marvel shows just being limited run miniseries. I think the MCU could really do a show that can run for multiple seasons, and build upon the last season in the same vein Agents of Shield did. Yes, you can argue Loki ran for multiple seasons, but it's honestly just a 2-part miniseries.

Maybe the DODC could be a good vessel for a longer running show, I think an organisation dealing with the aftermath of superheroes would be really interesting.

FictionFantom2026-01-23 18:27

Mutant High.

Freaks and Geeks but at the X-Mansion, with a hint of Abbott Elementary.

CaptHayfever2026-01-24 04:06

Well, at least Todd was arrested, & he strikes me as a total rat, so I'm sure the authorities will get Josh too.

TheFightingImp2026-01-24 12:26

With more eps, it couldve been like *Boston Legal* but within the MCU. That show was always able to shift between funny and serious, even breaking the 4th wall.

Moist-Succotash-31072026-01-23 14:18

I'm so sad that people can't let a female led show win! If it isn't made for the male gaze it doesn't get another season and it makes me sad.

Ohjeezrick932026-01-23 14:23

I enjoyed it fine but my main gripe was I was hoping for more of a court room focus, maybe would’ve been too close to daredevil, particularly with him making an appearance.

Moist-Succotash-31072026-01-23 14:24

So you wanted a female Daredevil show?!

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:45

She-Hulk in the comics doesn’t spend a lot of time in the courtroom. It’ll be there for a joke or two, to button up a story, to start a story, or as a callback, but the whole “courtroom drama” thing is Daredevil’s wheelhouse, not She-Hulk’s. Lawyer is her day job, not her whole reason for being in the comics. Often against her wishes though.

She’s like Superman in that regard. You don’t expect Superman comics to be about Clark Kent being an investigative journalist do you? No, that’s Lois’ wheelhouse. Journalism is Superman’s day job

Codysnow312026-01-23 14:25

We can, it just had to be good.

HereWeFuckingGooo2026-01-23 15:00

No, it has to be flawless. She Hulk was good, but good isn't good enough for some people.

ProductArizona2026-01-23 16:19

For $225m, nah, it has to be better than that. They spent $25m an episode for low viewership and panned reviews

Codysnow312026-01-23 17:13

She-Hulk was barely mediocre. That’s being generous.

adeelf2026-01-23 14:30

I'm so sad that people can't let a female led show be criticized! If it isn't praised or given more credit than it deserves then it's assumed to be sexism and it makes me sad.

Moist-Succotash-31072026-01-23 14:34

I'm so sad that men need outside platforms to scream about how impotent they are.

the_paradox02026-01-23 14:44

Their response should tell you all you need to know, that these people are more often than not, miserable humans who have nothing except blaming things on other humans (sometimes men) in general.

HereWeFuckingGooo2026-01-23 15:01

Yeah, all those review bombs before it was even released were just regular criticism.

Endgam2026-01-23 20:36

Criticism is fine.

Misogyny is not.

And if you're trying to downplay that misogyny had everything to do with a lot of the responses such as **review bombing episodes before they were actually out**, well, *we know who you are.*

Wtygrrr2026-01-23 15:11

People did appreciate WandaVision, but that was also a show about a woman who had gone crazy and spent a lot of time in the kitchen, so I’m not sure it counts.

gestalto2026-01-23 15:14

Not really sure what you mean by "win", but there are plenty of female lead shows that are/were great in general (I also like She-Hulk to be clear). The problem isn't the vocal minority that lambast things just because woman, it's that they are often sub-par shows.

Even within the MCU, Wandavision was applauded. Agatha was applauded. Jessica Jones is rated higher than The Winter Soldier, even though it went downhill, as is Agent Carter.

Stop riding the bandwagon that doesn't accurately represent reality.

sxuthsi2026-01-23 15:20

That review bombing tells a different story, but sure

gestalto2026-01-23 15:29

7 word weak point, but I'll engage nonetheless.

I don't disagree that some stuff gets review bombed, but exceptions don't prove the rule you people try to tout as some absolute fact of all female lead things, as I just proved by 4 other MCU properties which didn't get review bombed just because it was female led.

Incidentally, Ms Marvel's review bombing was absolutely criminal in my opinion!!!

The problem with people like you and the person I responded to is you go at everyone like me that comments, like we are part of the vocal minority that hates on stuff "because woman", but for me, it couldn't be further from the truth, some of my favourite shows & films are female lead. I have no issue in the slightest. What I do take issue with is the blanket bullshit you people peddle like it's fact when it's demonstrably incorrect, for the MCU and film & TV in general.

I mean, most of the people in this thread alone like She-Hulk lol. Where is the female lead hating exactly? Just because you can find aspects that confirm your bias, doesn't mean it's representative of overall reality.

fistkick182026-01-23 17:13

My male gaze was well satiated by the show. I think the haters are probably closeted.

Oh no Meg and Tatiana stop shaking your asses at the camera I'm so angry right now

SkepticMexican2026-01-23 17:14

This is the exact mindset in which we get the female led shows we have now 🤦🏻‍♂️ nobody cares who the lead is, just have better writing 👏🏻

Ultrosbla2026-01-23 18:20

You mean like Jessica Jones with 3 seasons?

chaoticbadgood2026-01-24 02:19

Wandavison did well

mega5122026-01-23 14:20

I was fine until the end of it. The last episode was a bad decision.

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:35

The last episode was peak and perfect She-Hulk. The exact sort of thing she’d do in the comics

BaronZhiro2026-01-23 15:16

I would’ve been sorely disappointed if they *hadn’t* gone there in the finale.

fuzzyfoot882026-01-23 14:20

A lot of the shows work amazingly well in their own vacuum, she-hulk chief among them.

TorontoDavid2026-01-23 14:20

But did you know she dances?

Or that she describes the experiences of women who have to suppress emotions?

Or that her cousin didn’t kill her when he had an opportunity?

Or that her meta commentary is comic accurate?

I don’t see how anyone could like the show after these unforgivable sins.

Thankfully I had lots of very very angry YouTube accounts to tell me how I should feel.

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:37

God damn, I know this is sarcasm, but there are so damn many people who will say this exact thing — even your final kicker — that I feel like you need the /s

TelenorTheGNP2026-01-23 15:24

^"HEY, ^SOMEONE ^LIKED ^SOMETHING ^ON ^THE ^INTERNET ^THAT ^I ^DON'T ^LIKE!"

TorontoDavid2026-01-23 15:26

M!!!! SHE!!!!! U!!!!!

There, I think that expands upon my point and makes an irrefutable argument.

Pupniko2026-01-23 14:23

I really enjoyed it, just wish it had more episodes with more of the office character comedy (things that would have been cheap to film). Like in the comic I really liked that Jen realises to get stronger as she hulk she needs to get stronger as Jen, so she and Pug start working out together. There could have been fun office/gym stuff. Usually sitcoms take a while to get going and really benefited from the higher episode count of older series. One of my favourites is Parks and Recreation and that only really gets good in season 2 when the characters are more developed and the relationships more established.

AtomicGearworks12026-01-23 14:24

The hate for She-Hulk was because a lot of people didn't realize how different She-Hulk is from Hulk. They just saw the name and assumed it would be a female version of The Incredible Hulk with lots of high-end action and drama.

But She-Hulk has always been more comedic than Hulk.

DefendsTheDownvoted2026-01-23 15:10

You know, I never thought of that but you might be on to something as far as the general population goes. A lot of people probably expected a lot of smashing. Then again I expected a lot of courtroom suspense and I didn't get that either.

skeener2026-01-23 15:33

Well, to be fair, there was some “smashing” in the show

DefendsTheDownvoted2026-01-23 15:39

For sure. It just wasn't what they were going for, and they shouldn't. Jen is highly intelligent and she values that over her strength.

ShookMyHeadAndSmiled2026-01-23 16:28

The other kind of smashing, Homer.

BaronZhiro2026-01-23 15:15

Or put another way, She-Hulk finally became a viable character once she became more comedic than Hulk. There was an initial lackluster phase when writers didn’t know what to do with her, until Byrne came along.

Ericandabear2026-01-23 15:46

It's hilarious too, because when it was released half of the criticisms were "we don't need a female variant of hulk, create original characters," and the other half were complaints that it's so different from Hulk.

JDeegs2026-01-23 15:48

I didnt have those preconceived notions, I just didnt find it funny. But I only watched 1.5 episodes; does it get better/should I give it another go?

AtomicGearworks12026-01-23 17:00

It's not a "makes you laugh at jokes and situations" kind of comedy. It's a "tongue in cheek, satirical, makes fun of itself" kind of comedy.

So it's more like Community, 30 Rock, and Rick and Morty than it is like Friends, New Girl, and Big Bang Theory.

So if you like that more satirical, meta, 4th wall breaking stuff, then it's decent. But if you want to watch something that's cracking jokes and puts people in ridiculous situations for laughs, She-Hulk isn't it.

bullseye7172026-01-23 14:25

Most accurate depiction of parole officers.

Randolpho2026-01-23 14:35

Glad you saw the light, and thanks for explaining it to all the jerks out there constantly complaining about it

NamelessGamer_12026-01-23 14:38

We have to put a limit on which projects get praise in this sub, I've already seen people here say they loved Quantumania, Captain Marvel and now She-Hulk? And they get upvotes? Really?

Especially crazy when you consider Multiverse of Madness still gets a load of hate here. Ain't no way MoM is worse than the 3 projects I just mentioned, I'm sorry

FiveTribes2026-01-23 14:43

This might sound crazy, but I have this theory that people have different opinions from each other.

NamelessGamer_12026-01-23 14:49

I know that, but it feels almost as if the popular/majority opinion were that these projects were good, considering the ludicrous amount of upvotes they get. It's not just the opinion of a random anymore. They are opinions that gather 100s of upvotes

FiveTribes2026-01-23 14:51

And this bothers you because...

DryReceptacle2026-01-23 18:34

and?

LowFat_Brainstew2026-01-23 14:53

I disagree... Oh wait \s

DryReceptacle2026-01-23 20:40

Dude roams /r/letterboxd, he's a professional film critic and knows best.

Embarrassed_Radio5962026-01-23 18:11

Captain Marvel was good She-Hulk was also good. Multiverse of Madness is around the same level of quality - great parts with a few big issues holding it back.

SymbiSpidey2026-01-23 14:41

Part of the hate came from people not understanding what She-Hulk was actually supposed to be about and part of it was just straight up misogyny from the same grifters and weirdos who poo-poo on basically any female-led MCU project (especially if it touches on gender dynamics).

That's not to say there aren't legitimate criticisms about the show or legitimate reasons for not liking it, but when people were hating on the show _before it even released_, it's clear that a lot of folks were motivated to hate it for reasons outside of its own quality.

Timsahb2026-01-23 14:45

Yeah I enjoyed it a lot

Dirks_Knee2026-01-23 14:47

I enjoyed it as well, I think the end is what ultimately triggered many (outside the He-Man women haters). I personally thought it was nice to see Marvel take a risk like that, but I fully understand how jarring a decision it was.

Eject_The_Warp_Core2026-01-23 14:48

She Hulk is the only MCU Disney + series I've re-watched. I won't claim its cgreat television, but its fun. Jen is one of my favorite characters introduced after Endgame and its a shame she hasn't shown up since. hopefully she's in Doomsday/Secret Wars

Terflog2026-01-23 14:53

Already confirmed to be canceled and the actress stepped down from the role.

SnooAvocados43572026-01-23 14:57

Still my favorite Marvel Show. Its the only one that actually felt like TV show instead of a six hour movie(movies aren't supposed to be 6 hours)

raisingcuban2026-01-23 17:39

You seriously didn’t think WandaVision felt episodic?

SnooAvocados43572026-01-23 22:39

Oh it did! It was the first outta the gate so sometimes it slips my mind. But yeah Wandavision also rose above the event movie format as well.

DefendsTheDownvoted2026-01-23 15:03

Maslani is great casting for Jennifer. I'm excited to see her with the Avengers one day. I loved the tone of the show, pitch perfect. I like that she was trying to balance work and her new life as an enhanced individual.

It was just so poorly executed. Barely any courtroom scenes. The Daredevil episode had the only well written courtroom scene, which was written by an actual comic book writer. What a novel idea!

The lambastic nature with which they treated Banner. Just outright dismissing his hardships, which have been a nightmare, and suggesting that dealing with shitty people in every day life is somehow worse than having the American military scouring the Earth for your whereabouts. That's just MCU canon. We could talk about the severe trauma of his childhood, but that's comic until it's on screen.

Anyway, there's a lot to like with the show. But I feel they dropped the ball.

BaronZhiro2026-01-23 15:19

Honestly? I loved everything about it except that I thought it should’ve been much funnier. It seems to me that they didn’t have any experienced comedy writers on the staff.

But everything else about it I thought was pretty great, and it really came into its own in the last couple of episodes.

onikaizoku112026-01-23 15:19

I'm glad you circled back and gave it another shot.

Now the bit that will bury me...

I really wish that mindset, just going in without crazy expectations, had been more widespread after Endgame. There were straight-up missteps(looking at you Secret Invasion...), but I still say that overall MCU fare Phase 4+ is nowhere near as bad as the vocal minority says it is.

TheSexyShaman2026-01-23 16:18

If you go into She Hulk with the understanding you are watching a sitcom, it becomes immensely more enjoyable. I feel like the majority were expecting a serious drama.

ShookMyHeadAndSmiled2026-01-23 16:26

It's because no one ever says the full title, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. It's a goofy title for a fun, goofy show. If you pay even the slightest bit of attention, the show announced what it is in the very title. It's fun, Tatiana Maslany is great in it, and the supporting cast (including the ridiculous one-off characters) is charming.

Ribbit and rip it!

TelFaradiddle2026-01-23 18:15

>Tatiana Maslany is great in it,

Agreed, and her chemistry with Charlie Cox was *off the charts*. If there is ever a push to bring She-Hulk over to the more serious side of the MCU, they NEED to rekindle that romance.

amodsr2026-01-23 20:34

I might be wrong but isn't it a thing that she hulk doesn't date but indeed smashes.

miikro2026-01-24 01:32

She-Hulk might not date but Jen introduced Matt to her family. That's pretty dating-type stuff..

brookietheGOAT2026-01-24 07:22

It's so funny how Charlie and Tatiana had so much more chemistry in the 15 minutes they interacted than a lot of main MCU pairings. I don't know why they aren't doing anything to reunite them again, their fling and banter was one of the most praised part of the show.

Bartman3262026-01-23 22:39

It's a show thats perfect for cameos or what you would basically call "guest stars".

When they reference "Asgard is a people not a place" it doesn't feel like a cheap reference/fanservice because it's in service to comedy not trying to make the story more compelling.

It's a show style that can drive a lot of good progress for the mcu. You can bring in characters that aren't necessarily going to have their own new project soon or might have an unresolved plot point you can tie up. Like imagine if Shang Chi was in an episode or two. That would be huge for the character or if they addressed the Power Broker here instead of leaving that plot point to dry.

It could have such a good spot in the current mcu lineup, be a Swiss army knife for tightening up any loose bits of writing they need like how they mentioned the sokovia accords were repealed in an episode. Shame they didn't go for the second season.

TheKingOfToast2026-01-23 17:53

I just wish they actually did these things like TV shows and not too long movies that aren't long enough.

Helagoth2026-01-24 02:04

But I dont want a sitcom and dont understand why everything is not made for me!!!!

CaptHayfever2026-01-24 04:01

Which is bonkers, because it was *explicitly* advertised as a comedy.

qcthunder2026-01-25 01:07

Whispers "lawyer show" 😉

TelFaradiddle2026-01-23 18:13

>but I still say that overall MCU fare Phase 4+ is nowhere near as bad as the vocal minority says it is.

Agreed. Is it a noticeable step down? Yes. But *bad*? Not even close.

amodsr2026-01-23 20:36

I think the only real reason it is a step down is because they are establishing a new phase more than the movies are bad. Like some of the earlier movies aren't that great but eventually they found their way. Now they're trying to build up a new cast of characters, a new big bad, and replace the core main dudes who left/died.

Sadly both the fanbase (regardless of how minor or major they are) are not making it easy and the companies are just giving stuff until they find something because they aren't willing to just lock into an idea and work with it.

Shit's all over the place.

N8CCRG2026-01-23 22:41

And honestly, I think it's a step down because Phase 3 is the outlier for being so far above average. I think that's really the fluke, but everyone expected it to be the new average.

Looking at my most recent reranking after an end of year rewatch, 7 of my top 10 come from Phase 3 (Winter Soldier, AOU and Thunderbolts* are the other three).

Melodic_Taste_7132026-01-27 07:52

youʼre so real for AOU

No_Imagination_24902026-01-23 18:35

Personally, I don't mind what the vocal minority says, I've learnt to tune them out. The thing I worry about is Marvel believing that trying new and interesting things was a mistake, meaning they'll stick to playing it safe from now on. Because that would be a shame.

BON3SMcCOY2026-01-23 20:01

I wish Marvel thought like you do instead of seemingly abandoning most of it and just going for returning characters

Hevens-assassin2026-01-23 20:30

Phase 4 entertained me more than it didn't. Secret Invasion was pretty bad, and What If was mostly bad, Multiverse of Madness was hugely disappointing, but the rest is pretty decent marvel affair.

amodsr2026-01-23 20:33

It's not. I went in with an open mind and an open heart knowing how much I love the MCU. I just find certain shows and movies to not be as good or as bad as people say.

Fabulous-Ad71282026-01-23 23:31

I went in with low expectations, could immediately see it was obviously intended to be humorous and lighter-hearted. Some cringe moments, but recall getting some laughs here and there too. Was entertained, though wouldn’t watch again, and also wouldn’t rant against it (as is popular to do) either. Pretty decent fun.

Atheist_Simon_Haddad2026-01-23 23:54

Getting to see Olivia Colman and her character made the missteps in Secret Invasion worth it to me.

BenFranklinsCat2026-01-24 01:09

Secret Invasion was pretty bad.

Echo was good, I personally found it a bit slow but I'm pretty sure it was just me.

Marvels was great fun, and had great characters.

Eternals was great, just not really a superhero-type movie, more a movie about people who happened to have superpowers.

Moon Knight, Agatha, Werewolf By Night: all absolutely stellar shows.

Really phase 4 was overall really good, and I wish the Disney higher-ups had sucked it up when the review bombings and bad faith Narratives came calling.

Material-Elephant1882026-01-24 07:01

after going back and rewatching everything in order a few months ago i absolutely agree

FriendlyDrummers2026-01-25 08:21

I personally shrug a lot of it off as, "it's just fiction. Sometimes it's silly but it's fiction."

SI? No. That actually infuriated me.

For so many reasons. Why are you having a heartfelt "this is my experience as a Black man in America" be done by a shape shifter?? Homie could literally change races and assume a different identity if he wanted to. Like stfu

Also killing Agent Hill for no reason. And then Emilia Clarke's character being OP for no reason

shootersshoot3182026-01-23 15:24

I think they had a few moments that played right into the hands of the woke police. Like in the pilot the reason she can control her emotions switching from Jen to the hulk something Bruce’s struggled until endgame in the mcu because she’s a woman and they do this everyday was cringe. And the meg twerking thing.

But the show was actually pretty good and gets way too much hate. I thought the finale was one of the better finales of the Disney plus series.

skeener2026-01-23 15:41

The control emotions thing was so misunderstood. She was cocky about controlling her emotions but she was wrong and that’s what hulking out at the gala was all about. People get hung up on her saying the thing but forget that, in the end, she proved Bruce right.

BartleBossy2026-01-23 17:32

> The control emotions thing was so misunderstood. She was cocky about controlling her emotions but she was wrong and that’s what hulking out at the gala was all about. People get hung up on her saying the thing but forget that, in the end, she proved Bruce right.

That is my take on it as well.

The problem became a meta-community one. The fact that the pro-She hulk crowd couldnt just admit that she was *wrong* robbed the show of the point it was making.

Then it became a discussion about women and mens emotional regulation, and media portrayal, instead of a discussion about Jens growth.

This take is hilarious to me the name of the show is named She-Hulk: Attorney At Law and people wanted it to be serious.

canuck472026-01-23 15:51

I liked it. I've been a big fan of Tatiana Maslany since Orphan Black.

If they do a season 2 I would love to see more courtroom stuff.

BartleBossy2026-01-23 15:53

It was billed as a feminist legal comedy, and only really hit 1/3.

3/4ths of the episodes were lamenting her relationships with men, wondering why boys dont like her and being concerned about her clothes.

The court/legal aspects were almost entirely dispensed with.

It was mildly funny though.

I could see what they were trying to do, but I think they just missed on the execution.

JRHThreeFour2026-01-23 16:24

I liked the show. It was fun for me to watch and her episodes with Daredevil in the dueling courtroom battle and as vigilantes were my favorites.

"the right expectations"

This right here would save so many of these projects for so many people.

RihoSucks2026-01-23 16:41

It lags a bit in the middle for me but the hulk king misogynists story line was brilliant and the finale is my favorite episode of d+ television.

hamiltonscale2026-01-23 16:51

Everyone constantly complained about the marvel formula and how everything was the same…they asked for something different.

Marvel shows gave us different…almost every show had its own unique feel and personality but many hated that. “It doesn’t feel like Marvel!”

Well which is it? What do you actually want besides the freedom to whine? Another big issue has been bandwagon hate. I know too many people who won’t even give a show/movie a chance just because a popular (and very biased) reviewer called it garbage, woke, etc.

That is what destroyed She-Hulk viewership.

Oh, a character known to be funny and unserious at times…that’s been breaking the fourth wall since before Deadpool is now being unserious and breaking the fourth wall?!?!?! What a ripoff of Deadpool! The whole show is about twerking!

Randoml97892026-01-23 17:13

I will never not comment that she hulk should have been a 22 episode seasons procedural legal comedy. Everything about it is AWESOME and longer seasons would have helped somewhat convey the tone.

Could also use it as a place to answer the small questions about Blip effects and the like. Maybe one of her lawyer buddies is working a case where someone got remarried after their spouse blipped, or a land dispute over property where the original owner blipped etc.

Valuable-Condition592026-01-23 18:09

A Brooklyn 99-like workplace comedy would have been great

SushiGradeChicken2026-01-23 19:48

Same. That's my standard reply to anything about this show. Workplace Sitcoms take time to settle in.
Parks & Rec season 1, Office season 1

There were great pieces, Madisynn, the Immortal, Daredevil fling, Tim Roth. They just needed more time together

KelVarnsen_20232026-01-23 17:54

It was fun and I liked the character but I hated the ending. Calling out how every Marvel show and movie ends in a big CGI fight doesn't really work when Marvel just continues to have things end in big CGI fights. Especially since the next show after She Hulk was Secret Invasion was probably the worst offended when it came to that cliched ending.

Embarrassed_Radio5962026-01-23 18:07

Definitely flawed but overall great and deserved a better fate than it got.

IshyMoose2026-01-23 18:36

I read a few runs of the comics before I watched the show. The tone and content are very true to the comics.

I think people were expecting it to be hulk which is very different then She Hulk.

nakedpadme2026-01-23 19:24

Love your confidence in saying "season 1"

Bing_Bong_the_Archer2026-01-23 19:30

I really liked it

Endless_Chambers2026-01-23 20:00

I actually enjoyed most of the characters. I cant say that for a lot of shows. The villain was a bit lame but the show was lighthearted enough to understand that he was just a cornball villain in the first place though the actor did do a good job making me dislike the character.

Tasty-Loan4362026-01-23 20:09

honestly, this is how I felt with a lot of projects post endgame (with the exception of a few). there’s always this expectation to be presented with some amazing, larger than life piece of media that builds upon intriguing/serious themes but then when the movie/show doesn’t do that, the public reception becomes so poor. it’s always upon a rewatch of a “bad” movie/show that i can truly appreciate it for what it is, without those expectations. i’ve yet to rewatch she hulk but there’s no doubt that the same will happen!

Darrensucks2026-01-23 20:22

Grip it and rip it

ck6142026-01-23 20:25

Bros saying Season 1 as if we’re ever getting a Season 2

amodsr2026-01-23 20:32

I'm not a fan of the product. I was never one of the people that was too hard on it but my viewpoint still stands.

As someone who has not read many comics but likes superheros (I just don't know where to start and at this point I would rather not as comics never end, It's a me thing, It's not important. I love super heros in general. I'm not a fan of DC more than Marvel and in general I think the MCU has been overall great. Like more good than bad. Heck, I'm not even that hard on things like quantumania.) I don't know much about She Hulk. I had heard good things and liked some of the small things I saw online. I was excited for a show that had her to introduce me to her and bring in what she was about. The product we got felt antagonistic and like it was bringing in real world stuff. When I watch movies and shows I try to avoid the shit that is super real world. Like I really don't want to have to watch a show that is making fun of the chuds online who are sexist and all that other stuff.

The second issue is we could have gotten something way better than what we did. Look at all the shows that are really good. I mean like REALLY good. Like the stuff that is so good most people have a hard time denying how good it was. Shows like Loki, Moon knight, Wanda Vision, Daredevil. We could argue that shows like Hawkeye are on equal footing and as good as those shows and I wouldn't argue too hard against you. If we removed the stuff that was antagonistic, threw in a few more fun things, made her a little less abrasive and stopped making it about anything other than she hulk the show could have been so much better. Instead we have what we have.

I watched it the first time and had a hard time not seeing just the bad because of the weekly viewing I did. This second time was a binge of the show and while I am no longer seeing something new and am used to what it was doing it did have some moments that I thought were funnier and better the second time around. Just not any of the stuff that I thought made it bad.

But hey, at least it's not inhumans. I would watch she hulk over inhumans every day of the week. Inhumans is by far the worst mcu product that has come out.

eagc72026-01-23 20:36

That's actually an issue a relative of mine had with the show, she was going in expecting an action show and even as i explained to her while it aired that this not meant to be action show, she still went in to later episodes expecting action

CaptHayfever2026-01-24 04:09

We're seeing the same thing right now with Wonder Man. I've lost track of how many times I've had to explain to people that it's not an action show, that the trailers are *accurately* depicting what kind of story it is.

Mysterious-Fix-33252026-01-23 20:40

So your only problem with it was tone? not anything in its writing? alrighty then.

suckerpunch0852026-01-23 21:24

The hate was uncalled for. It was a fun show and marvel was trying something new. Couple of surprises I didn't like like many others but I still enjoyed this show.

imin20992026-01-23 23:03

i loved the show but the ending was so bad like one of the worst series finales

Captain501st-662026-01-24 01:27

Still just a terrible show to me tbh. Humor doesn't land for me, political messaging they put in it is just too overt and dumb for some lines specifically said to Hulk that everyone's already rehashed, I know, and breaking the fourth wall just doesn't hit right with her character for me. Works with Deadpool, but didn't translate well to her imo. The weird promotion of her just hooking up w a bunch of people back to back was also pretty weird. Daredevil was the best part of the show, and the finale of the show was alright; even though I didn't like the breaking of the fourth wall by her, the Disney+ Screen Stuff was somewhat neat.

HeroldOfLevi2026-01-24 03:47

I love She-Hulk! I'm really glad you posted this.

Grayx_28872026-01-24 08:25

Well, I don't know if Jenny Walters will be back for Avengers: Secret Wars. But, I would say wait until **AFTER** they have hit that reset button to see if she does come back for a future Marvel Studios project.

ChisSol2026-01-24 17:02

Dude what are you talking about. It does not work well as a legal comedy. It’s just not a good product. I am not one of those cringe ass “cancel culture anti woke” dorks, at all. I really enjoy female lead films and shows. But - she hulk was terrible. Sure it’s funny, but it’s not anything special compared to other comedies.
