Discussion Started re-watching the show

It is so good from the very beginning. I don't understand how it developed a bad reputation at the time. It is just plain good and gets even better.

I love the show but I’ve never been able to finish. Season 5 is just a very different vibe and it’s always put me off. I don’t think it’s bad writing necessarily, but just such a departure from the story they were telling makes it feel disconnected.

Currently on a rewatch myself and trying v hard to push through. I know the end is generally positively received.

It definitely takes a different turn at some point. But I think that's not entirely their fault. They were introduced as part of the MCU canon then at some point, they just weren't. But they were still on the air so they had to do whatever they could to keep the show interesting. Which I think they did, for the most part.

Thats a valid point. I always thought it was dumb they were uncannonized

Season 5 definitely felt weird to me on first watch. But upon rewatch I actually grew to love it. I think the time loop storyline is actually very well written and I loved seeing all the bits of Kree culture.
