A show made for wine drinking middle age women with middle age women drinking wine in it... yeah, current target audience for disney.

[@jedward635]

“A flushing toilet sinks all turds.” That’s like poetry.

[@stillcantbesilencedevennow]

Lots of folks saying "not the worst thing I've watched" such glorious reviews, im sure disney/ Marvel is glowing with praise at the offices.

[@silverjohn6037]

Wasn't the point of buying Marvel and Star Wars to give Disney franchises that appealed to men instead of the Disney princess female audience. Then they use the IP's to create female centric shows?

[@Korschtal]

It seems there's a school of thought amongst Feminists, that having shows for men is somehow supporting "Toxic Masculinity", so they're trying to take them over.

[@zephodb]

I wish that was the point... No, the point was to make omni-world-eating-IPs... that men were stuck with, and then change them so women would like them just as much, while somehow keeping the men interested. This way Disney could just focus all its best talent at this new format and expect EVERYONE to go always and forever. They have well-and-soundly failed at keeping the men interested, so it seems Agatha here is swinging to at least get the women properly invested. c.c They have been using PR shame-tactics to TRY and get women involved 'all along' (sorry, bad joke there) and it has had a high variability of effect; the answer is usually not, with men still making up most of the audience and failing to attract a new audience while slowly loosing the old one.

Which is worse? Watching Agatha All Along, or being the hired entertainment at a Diddy party? 🤔

[@Maidiac]

Sounds like a CW show, pass

[@jameretief2005]

I've been entertained enough so far. Is it a great series? No. There are pacing issues and tonally I think it lacks consistency. But, the characters are at least interesting and so far the series is a decent October/Halloween appetizer. All of the witches are deeply flawed and are essentially the rejects of their kind. They aren't girl-bossing their way through the series and are each dealing with their own internal struggles. The Teen on the other hand is a flat deus ex machina character rather than a proper audience surrogate that I think would have served the story better. Especially considering the outcome of the audience surrogate, the Green Witch, in the third episode. Overall though, I'm still interested in where the series goes.

[@AL-ws5yi]

Tbh, this sounds terrible. Then again I’m not a middle aged wine mom. I’m a past- middle-aged-bubble-tea-soon-to-be-empty-nester mom.

[@stillcantbesilencedevennow]

Just start having fun with the old man. Pick a room and blow his mind. Be spontaneous. Enjoy the time, because 90% of the time you'll be worrying about the kids, so best to distract yourself with coitus.

[@kirbymarchbarcena]

The shortness of this video proved how so few scenes in the episode can really be criticized badly or greatly by an experienced, former network executive. In short, meh.

[@jaewok5G]

_"no worse than Charmed?"_ … okay, now you've crossed the line!

[@n.d.m.515]

To be honest, the only reason I watched charmed (the original) was for the attractiveness of the ladies. It helped that the stories were not awful, even if lacking substance.

[@robkewley]

Watched it. Was ok, interesting, vaguely entertaining. Weighed down by the expectations of anything with the Marvel tag.

[@brianmcgirr3115]

I kept thinking of course they’ll kill off Mrs Hart. The character with most potential. She was fine and I was relieved. Then the ending happened. Might stop watching

[@conradcomics]

It's funny how much better a show made 'for kids' like Brendar the Barbarian executed this plot.

[@conradcomics]

Pardons, I keep forgetting the show is actually named, "The Barbarian and the Troll,"

[@shanewoolsey940]

I love these reviews even though I haven't owned a TV since 1987. If someone did a none woke none 'girl boss' remake of the Rockford files I might go to a friends house and watch it.

[@Dr.Cosmar]

I think the reason ratings are tanking is the fact it's just not "Marvel". It's not superheroes or villains doing superhero and villain stuff. It's a group of middle-aged Wickens living vicariously with characters they create for a multi-million dollar production. It's made for a target audience, that does not exist. That's not to say no one will watch it and/or enjoy it, it's just saying that there are not many goths, wickens, and satanist, watching Disney+. They are more your Tim Burton types of girls, not your Walt Disney types. Regardless of age.

[@map3384]

Maybe they should make a series about a man who’s looking for the unicorn woman who isn’t a wine drinking 304 with an entitled attitude because she’s a strong independent college graduate narcissist. Men everywhere would watch. We can call it Looking for Steven’s Eden. I’m sure the feminist would love it. This series would go on for years! Longer than MASH!

[@freshoffthehook904]

Once again off topic but where do you shop to get all of these wonderful shirts?! The prints are fantastic and I can’t find good prints anywhere anymore.

[@eddiebruv]

What was the trigger for them to start guzzling the wine in the first place?

[@MrDecelles]

It's not a bad show per se. It's just very weak sauce. Agatha with a plan all along is what we're in for and they've made it an ensemble cast that will die once per episode.

[@constantlyenthused336]

Live, laugh, dry heave

[@williamwilson5127]

What this show needs is a Knight Rider crossover! Sure it makes no fucking sense, what does these days?

[@barnabusdoyle4930]

I disagree. It needs a Terminator crossover. A ruthless machine bent on killing all of the characters in the show, completely immune to any and all magics, and each episode Agatha sacrifices one of her horde to save herself. Slowly the rest of the group realizes that Agatha is using their fallen as a shield against her own fate and they start to turn on her.

[@n.d.m.515]

@@barnabusdoyle4930 I would actually watch that. No, seriously that sounds awesome where the hero is actually the villain hunted down by a greater villain. The actual hero turns out to be a non-witch who realizes that if all the witches die then a still greater threat will destroy the world. The killing machine was sent by the greater magical force to destroy the only forces that could protect the world; outcast witches. The non-witch then does what they can to protect the other witches from Agatha without killing her and find a way to destroy the killing machine.

Name one TV show that's a spinoff of a TV show that's a spin-off of a movie franchise that had existed, let alone been worth watching. This will not be the exception.

[@n.d.m.515]

One of the worst things to happen with Internet made entertainment is having no audience and advertiser checks and balances. It used to be a low rating would kill a terrible or at least unpopular show. These days all you have is the need for filler keeping these things afloat.

quite liked the episode.......not hating this show so far. Actually enjoy it more than Wandavision..........didn't like most of Wandavision......cept for maybe Vision doing the ship of Theseus.' Not saying it was good, just that I enjoyed it more than I expected I would.....heck I didnt expect to see 3 episodes.

[@NotTomS]

lol, just makes me want to see Drinker's review... lol... sorry chato...

[@erroneous6947]

I was wonder why Wiccan couldn’t drink? Why does hell obey US law? Bad writing.

[@abcun17]

Let's just permanently change the title to "Agony All Along". Much more appropriate to this smelly turd of Dismal Disney Plus and Marvel vomited content...

[@toadman5184]

Should be called "Misery loves company".

[@BrettCaton]

There's been very successful series that were pretty much based on this concept. American Horror Story, Charmed, and to a lesser extent American Gothic. I am sure there were others. The show has no excuse to be this bad. Now you can say Charmed was bad too, but that didn't matter because, well, it was charming enough - it pulled in female viewers with hot men, it pulled in (some) male viewers with hot women, and the stories were adequate for the audience. I just don't see many people under forty watching this to see sexy people, and middle aged wine mums don't usually care about Marvel anyway. Plus, they want studs too - the pool boy equivalent. Where are the men for them to salivate over? Sure, there are some lesbian wine mum marvel watchers, but did they really think that demo would sustain them?

[@Tat2dDude67]

Thank you for the video Paul. Your shirt was lovely. The show sounds like 💩. Cheers.

[@nickdilmore4841]

Waiting for Ya Boi Zach to come along and shout "How dare you, a white middle aged-man watch/review a show made clearly for the die hard middle-aged wine drinking uber Marvel Comics fans!!!"

'No worse than Charmed? What blasphemy is this? If I was a middle aged, wine-oclock bingeing single white lesbian wiccan female, you'd be looking down in horror to a sink full of hair mister.'

[@LittlePhizDorrit]

All of Hollywood has forgotten about the concept of Setup and Payoff. I don't know if they never learned it or think they are better than it (i.e. trying to subvert expectations), but whatever it is, it's completely gone.

[@TheBrewjo]

Witches and ovens was obvious... What would have been, funny? How can we make money on product placement? Could it have a setup like Chekov's gun? Ninja Brand Air-Fryer. I have to say it again, you have an awesome collection of shirts. Many moons ago I did ask about a particular one and you did reply, it's vintage now and the only one I could find online was US$980 from a Californian 'thrift' shop.

[@sirfearlesshippo7378]

“A flushing toilet sinks all turds” is an amazing turn of phrase I will now use weekly.

[@Wien1938]

It's really not as bad as She-Hulk...but it is still boring.

[@spencerbookman2523]

Comparing this show to Charmed is a bit like comparing Survivor to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. There's simultaneously no difference, and all the difference in the world.

[@rationalwatcher7739]

Somebody can change their tune on a Marvel/Disney show if it's good? I can't believe what I've seen.

[@godzillafan4033]

So it doesn't actually stink. Its a step in the right direction I guess. Disney has poisoned the wells for me. Star Wars and Marvel so I won't be drinking.

[@bjc9520]

In summary: it was ok, but it could have been great.

[@davidsanders5652]

What I will say is I never made it to episode three of Secret Invasion so this IS an improvement. Yes I hated the dumb song and yes it's so much worse when Plaza is not on screen but, on the whole, it's better than I expected.

[@captainhurricane5705]

All along I knew I would never watch this series

[@MichealWeinfurtner]

Great review, and I found your shirt more entertaining than the show you where reviewing.

[@PaulRWorthington]

Definitely agree with your final point: How could the writers not have Agatha be more pivotal in the solution to the puzzle? She did say it needed blood and slashed the kids hand and that coulda been it if it was played more dramatically but it came off like an afterthought. The whole ep's pacing was off. The show wasn't bad, but not as enjoyable as the first ep.

[@mdesm2005]

wtf , i can't finish this, but in general , love your channel

[@gracegrace2107]

Your shirt game is strong. Your closet must be full of astonishing choices.

[@BNuts]

I will let you know when Marvel creates something I think will be entertaining enough to motivate me to subscribe to Disney+. It would, to be fair, probably require three or more different items.

[@gracegrace2107]

It's like they tacked another set of wheels on the back of a car.

[@JerichoSteele]

I disagree. Agatha needed to drink since she was part of the coven. The coven as a whole needed to team together to create the antidote that the “potions” witch directed them to do

[@singerap]

A flushing toilet sinks all turds you say? That is a keeper for sure. Can't wait to find an excuse to use it.

[@silverscorpio24]

If there's any modern show to drive most people to drink it's this one.

[@tomwinston6758]

lol.. “middle aged wine swilling women” … good laugh

[@charlesratcliff2016]

The actresses are well seasoned at their craft but Agatha at times is over dramatized.

[@MoonjumperReviews]

I did enjoy this episode more than the previous two. Save for some video game plotting, It reminded me a bit of Lifetime’s “The Witches of East End,” a long forgotten series I actually did enjoy back in 2014 - which still did a lot more than this series with a micro-fraction of a Marvel budget. It was a much better written show. Agatha is a series that probably would fair better with a rational budget on a more traditional cable network, such as a Lifetime. But I guess nobody in Hollywood would consider producing a scripted series for linear cable in this say and age. That would be beneath them.

[@Hiushisan]

Almost as much alcohol as in "The Killer Shrews".

[@JoeOvercoat]

0:42 Whoa there! That may be true *except* the three witches of Charmed were each hot in their own way. Match that up with ‘the girlfriend likes the show’ and you have a winning competition. This show is not that.

[@jimclayson]

Chato: "...a flushing toilet sinks all turds." That's what we call "wishful thinking." I don't wanna burst your bubble, but I worked at a service plumbing company for over a decade... and in my personal experience, your premise, while it sounds logical and sensible, doesn't always stand up to scrutiny. Plumbers fishing corn-fed, spineless, brown trout out of porcelain was a daily occurrence. 🚽Just sayin'. YMMV.
