AGATHA ALL ALONG Episodes 8 + 9 BREAKDOWN! Easter Eggs & Details You Missed!

[@NewRockstars]

How does Agatha rank among the other Marvel Disney+ series?

[@f4llen391]

Not top 5

[@MasutaMJ]

Top 3. In company with Wandavision and Loki. X-men 97 is good but let's stick to live action for this ranking.

[@hblvideo]

Of the non-Netflix live action, this is #3, just behind WandaVision and Loki. What If.. and X-Men '97 are definitely in there to round out the top 5 if we're counting animated as well.

[@nailinthefashion]

It's my personal number 1. WandaVision, then Ms Marvel and Falcon are tied for third. Loki was okay to me but a little too Doctor Who inspired and needed to be more ambitious for me to get to the top 3.

[@justinreda6684]

Top 5

[@allisonpozzo]

In that final trial, the three actually have everything they need to complete it. Jen’s personal effects included a vial of water, Billy’s book had dirt on the pages, and Agatha’s broach with the seed.

[@CloudslnMyCoffee]

What a great detail

[@xsanguine8]

They tossed the other two, deciding it was useless.

[@hivenus-yay]

that's so cool

[@mattgaminggod3896]

Maybe that’s why the door wasn’t opening because agatha did not complete the trail in the way the road intended

[@mailyak442]

Damnnnn

[@thenaiam]

I love how they made so many versions of the Ballad. It says so much about the stories we tell.

[@kittib3266]

My favorite is the bluesy version as theme to 'Agnes of Eastview' but almost no one seems to realize that's ALSO the ballad!

[@Ateles122]

@@kittib3266 Oh my gosh yes! I just rewatched it and it's the exact same lyrics that Nicky sings with "windy road" instead of "witches road". Great spot!

[@sairatariq425]

​@@kittib3266 can you tell me where I can find that version?

[@iQueue211]

​@@sairatariq425episode one's intro opening

[@toonasag]

Same! I love the sacred ballad one!

[@BrianBuhl]

The writing may not have done as much justice to Jen's character, but the actress, especially in episode 8, more than made up for it. It was such a powerful performance.

[@WolfRamAndHart]

I think the writers, knowing that Jennifer would survive and possibly join the Midnight Sons, like in the comics, still had a story to tell...later. So seems like a fair trade.

[@variaxi935]

[@Atyourservice9240]

also why the writer even include the salem 7? they didn't do shit and pointless in the story. LOL

[@zaturnneo]

The use of practical makeup fx for Rio's skull face is awesome.

[@exoticbutters9867]

I think the voice effect when she's like "you may go" is chilling to

[@charblack52]

rip nicky your songwriting skills were unmatched

[@mailyak442]

Rip Nicky you would’ve loved Sabrina Carpenter 😔

[@toonasag]

Ha yeah 😔

[@thadcastle661]

I think they didn't go into Jenn's background as much as they did for Alice and Lilia is because she's still alive and could appear in Wiccan. Alice and Lilia are done so they're whole story had to be told immediately.

[@Uouttooo]

You are assuming that they are sure there will be a next season or other spinoffs to tell Jen's story.

[@cheekbonestrenchcoat]

​@@Uouttooo they left to find Tommy. They set up another series or film

[@osuspebrg]

@@cheekbonestrenchcoatyou’re not wrong, but I don’t need ghostly Kathryn Hawn for a season. Just throw them in young avengers

[@drkphoenix.aelena]

Because she’s the *path ahead.* She’s also the only person who mentions Mephisto which is a MCU live action first. So I genuinely believe they have plans for Jen in the future. Idk what, but it seems they may be planning to do more with the witchcraft side of Marvel. And I am HERE for it!

[@Uouttooo]

@@cheekbonestrenchcoat They also said that we would see the Eternals again. How is that working out?

[@davemetran1539]

Lorna Wu’s cover also ends with “I’ll see you at the end “

[@xsanguine8]

The true crime version does too, and it says windy road.

[@madiparker15]

And starts with “I have learned the lesson of all that’s foul and fair”

[@SilkBuckets]

why are we pretending like this wasnt easily one of their best shows

[@AdApT3Rx]

Fr it’s up there

[@brandflakeswiley4583]

To be fair not a great bucket

[@lewiszs9484]

@@brandflakeswiley4583so true 💀😂 but this and wandavision are fr some of the best marvel we have had in TOO long

[@SouthernRam]

I enjoyed it

[@1LegoAdventures]

Bad ending

[@px43]

I think it's important that the only time we see the kid convince Agatha to *not* kill a witch was also the day that he died, like the witch killings were the only thing giving Agatha enough power to keep him alive.

[@toonasag]

Ya seems to be a connection

[@Leoncroi]

9:22 - Also symbolic of how to enter the "Earth" trial. The point of taking your shoes off were to become one with the earth, but by putting the shoes back on, you're now "disconnected" from Earth, and thus must prove your mastery over it. Hence why it's a concrete/metal morgue; Green being the flow of life and decay, and concrete/metal becoming more barriers between you and the earth.

[@michaeledmonds4849]

I'm starting to like when series do the "finale" in the penultimate episode and then use the last episode for an epilogue

[@osuspebrg]

This last episode was absolutely gorgeous

[@mamabeth834]

Lorna Wu's poster also said 'For one Night only' so the 24 hours feels like it feeds into that.

[@dionysisnance4204]

Agatha would have made a killing as a singer cuz damn the witches road song slaps

[@AdApT3Rx]

It makes sense where Nickolas got it from 😂

[@osuspebrg]

Made a killing is a crazy choice of words here 😂

[@toonasag]

It sure does 😆

[@omalor]

One of the posters on Billy's room was for the movie Saw, which featured characters trapped in rooms with ticking time clocks and a trap door that would only open after completing a task, which could have inspired the nature of the trials.

[@EEmB]

Thank you!

[@toonasag]

Ooh cool pick

[@RonJonJovi-li6og]

Interesting when you go back to the beginning, the theme song to Agnes of Westview uses Nicky's original lyrics of "down the winding road." You could have never known the meaning of it at the time.

[@stellardaze]

The way I cried hugging my toddler while Agatha was singing the funeral song over Nicky's cairn 😢😭

[@ItaPita0012]

I have enjoyed Agatha all Along as much as coming to this channel every week watching you and Jessica break down each episode!

[@BrianSmith-ct3kh]

The castle in Lilia's trial is the same castle that Billy had in his bedroom, that's what tipped me that he was probably responsible for at least some of the Road.

[@dewah95]

Love that dandelions also reproduce asexually through apomixis. Haven’t seen any of the KZbinrs mention this

[@redwiltshire1816]

Yeah it was a nice detail could of been any plant but they chose dandelion

[@toonasag]

Ooh interesting!

[@nickelback5473]

9:00 Billy also says something along the lines of "We're back at square one" right before they literally go back to square one, the start of the road!

[@mockingslur6945]

I gave you props everywhere after episode 6 that you were right about Billy making the Hex out of things from his room! Good job mate!

[@DuskyPredator]

I refuse to believe this is the end of Jen. The final words from Lilia about being the path ahead may be yet to come.

[@jardex2275]

Maybe a Midnight Suns team up, once Blade gets his film finished. Seems like a natural conclusion if Marvel is going to push more into supernatural territory.

[@toonasag]

Maybe a team set up!

[@pyratpyrat]

The page in the scene of alice is from the book Adventures of Kavalier and Clay. Mr. Mailloux, Cram and Sue are characters from the book. Its a story about comic book writers

[@madbradfreeman]

Nice catch! Loved that book.

[@davidestes6381]

One of the best books I've ever read!

[@radiowatcher]

👏

[@anitralarae_mahjacat]

Chabon Writes Like Water ❤️‍🔥

[@mailyak442]

Oh fun!

[@lukeedwards6027]

Alice was shown upside down at first probably because of “As Above, So Below” thing, kind of like a mirror image.

[@marsdiaz9138]

I've been saying that this whole time! As above so below

[@AoDude]

Am I the only one who thought the dandelion was a red herring in the final trial? Yes, there was mud/water/seed in the personal effects. But each of them was ejected from the road/hex upon realising a personal growth. Not when the flower grew... Again Wizard of Oz-esque, they each discover that they already had what they needed "all along". All they had to do was face their personal problems.

[@oliviasobsession]

Yeah like the growth was personal not literal maybe. Idk. Good thought though

[@garyward9668]

When they got back to the shoes is not when Agatha knew Billy created the road. It was back when the first got to the road and Agatha turned to Billy and said "You are just like your mother"

[@Ultranger]

Even earlier than that, Agatha sees Sharon dead and says "I didn't think you had it in you" referring to Billy and how the Hex he made killed Sharon

[@progamer1000-ro2gr]

​@@UltrangerEven earlier as Agatha already figured it out by the end of episode 2

[@fmaries7000]

I felt like they did focus in on the drowning boys shoes. They r Saucony running shoes. So yes, maybe Billy found a kid that would be well suited for Tommy's spirit.

[@nailinthefashion]

I wonder if it's his track team who drowns him, his "coven"

[@ozzyomega8674]

@@nailinthefashion Wow that would actually make the whole thing even sadder.

[@nailinthefashion]

@@ozzyomega8674 i really hope they go with it. It was my first thought when I saw them all together and I got chills at how disparate the parallel is to Billy lucking out on a very healthy home.. made me cry just to consider it.

[@davidestes6381]

I read somewhere that the shoes are blue and white, which are Speed and Uncle Pietro's colors.

[@jardex2275]

That kid is going to be so messed up after his 'baptism'.

[@brynniefresh9746]

i am so used to fully grown babies being used as newborns in tv and movies that i don't even notice it that much anymore...but you are definitely right, and it's nice to see someone who knows what babies look like point it out lmao most people have no idea what a 3 month old or 9 month old looks like so they'd have to get a HUGE baby in order for people to notice (even tho that baby is probably like 15 pounds and an average newborn is 6-8 MAYBE 9 and very rarely 10 pounds...so it's basically double the size of an actual fresh out of the womb baby)

[@jardex2275]

It's the same with high school kids in sitcoms. It looks normal until you realize that the actors are at least 20, and are acting younger.

[@mrnoname5183]

Well I mean…it’s also easier to get fully grown babies rather than newborns…plus if they showed newborns realistically I’m pretty sure a lot of kids would find it gross

[@Ethan-cd4lt]

I loved the finale!

[@LadyMorganLavon]

Idk if someone else has said this but when Nicky is singing in the tavern the red head witch and the ladies clapping along all have a green ribbon meaning they are a coven

[@azraelsblade]

Last episode had me f*cking bawling, reminding me of my oldest child falling severely ill when he was 6 months old (he’s ok now).

[@chrisbeaudoin1852]

I can't wait for Westview to be renamed Witch's view

[@redwiltshire1816]

Nah west view will be completely abandoned after this the poor residents didn’t even try they just accepted it might happen again poor souls

Pretty sure all the Westview residence are gonna pack up and get the hell out of dodge

[@davidestes6381]

I hope Vision Quest takes place in Westview!

[@jardex2275]

@@davidestes6381 The series ends with Billy, Tommy, and Vision walking through the streets, while the neighborhood looks on in disbelief. They go to the plot of land that Vision bought and Billy starts materializing a house for them to stay in. They enter, the door closes behind them, and roll credits.

[@mattnic001]

It's Witches' not Witch's

[@taaycee4508]

Agatha was running the best Ponzi scheme 😂

[@TheDisell]

lol its funny that the theory is that the dandelion seed wafted in while agatha was distracted rather than...it got in Nicholas's hair when they blew it (or maybe it was a regular thing they did) and happens to be in that lock of hair. both are particular but the latter still seems infintely more practical.

[@sammyferber9150]

"down the winding road" are also the lyrics to the theme song from the very first episode, the true crime version of the ballad

[@AztechHydra]

It was a stunning series with a beautiful ending. I think the reaction has shown just how many viewers need everything spoonfed to them- read between the lines!

[@thealpha2549]

Wow. I didn't realize when watching that Agatha became a better witch through the "road," using spells and witchcraft other witches used throughout the series. As a "coven-less witch," this makes sense. Love these details!

[@TUkrLad]

The best thing they did was releasing it in Spooktober and adjacent to Halloween vibes.

[@AppleeSauceAlex313]

They released the last episodes way too close to the end of October, though, not giving a lot of people enough time to watch before the Halloween season. Even this video wasn't uploaded until November.

[@JovannyEvans]

Billy’s realization of the road was a montage like the Saw endings. There’s even a Saw poster next to The Craft poster.
