[@jeffblue19_2.0]

At the end of WandaVision, Wanda put ONLY Agatha under a spell to keep her "role" as the nosy neighbor as a punishment. Wanda's "death" distorted the spell, which is why Agatha was in true crime mode at the beginning. The residents were just playing along to placate her. For the rest of the previous 3 years, she was just a nosy neighbor due to Wanda's spell. Joe Locke's character (Teen) broke the spell and Rio gave her the final push to "claw" the rest of the way out.

[@paulhewes7333]

Her "role" was Kate Winslet in "Mare of Easttown". Almost perfectly.

[@jeffblue19_2.0]

@@paulhewes7333 Yup. Agnes of Westview lol. Loved it

[@wytheli]

i sort of remember dr. strange said that it's harder to break a spell casted by a dead person. so either Wanda is not dead-dead, or Teen really is that powerful (potentially).

This show is absolutely KICKING. I haven’t had this feeling about a marvel show since the first two eps of Wandavision dropped. Really, REALLY loving this. Aubrey Plaza is simply chewing scenery. I need next week’s ep like…meow

Andrew Ugo is the author of the library book that lets Agatha discover "DARKHOLD" Andrew Ugo is an anagram for Wundagore, the mountain Wanda's shrine/throne is on. Love it!

[@davidbergfors6820]

Even more clever things I missed, I thought it very clever to use a library slip how they did!

[@jasonmarbach]

Fun tie in: “Herb” said “she’s really most sincerely dead,” which is how the munchkin doctor described the wicked witch of the east in the Wizard of Oz. 👀

[@AG-co5iu]

@@arjaegonz ... may I introduce you to the many Switchmas' reactions (witches' plural) and the sweet surprise Jays' Kentucky styled surprises. 💗🍑

[@DarthTingleBinks]

Actually, Jac Shaeffer, the creator of the series, came about making this show not because of Kathryn Hahn's popularity, but because while pitching various other Marvel projects, she kept putting Agatha in them, so Kevin told her to just make an Agatha show.

[@ronniemontero7110]

oh that explains why a young Agatha had a cameo in Loki. 😅

[@TDhexada]

@@ronniemontero7110i forgot what you were talking about😭😭 that actress did kinda look like kathryn i remember everyone going “wait..”

[@mikeysodead2466]

Agatha was trapped in her own personal hex while the westveiw residence were freed, they were probably half playing along half Agatha imagining shit

[@mostcreative3680]

The town wasn't in a hex anymore it was just all in Agatha's mind. The townspeople play along with her delusions and help take care of her. The whole cop show was just the identity of the day lmao

[@AG-co5iu]

@@mostcreative3680 I would have loved to see Agatha's game show period.

[@ambrabridges2161]

I think only Agatha was trapped in the "cop story" reality which was somehow caused by Wanda's death. Agatha's neighbor tells her she'd been acting like she was in a true crime show and everyone had played along.

[@davidbergfors6820]

Makes sense since her trap was part of Wandas original hex, and that in turn was designed after the sitcoms Wanda loved as a child. only fitting that the "nosy neighbor" persona got really into criminal dramas at some point!

[@FuzzyBunnyofInle]

This song has been so deeply rooted in my brain. Not mad about it... Down. Down. ... Down the road...

[@jiffypoo5029]

Westview probably sees Agatha as a wounded hero. Westview witnessed Agatha fight Wanda and save them from the Hex.

[@MadisonCarter]

Something to remember regarding the citizens of Westview caring for Agatha/Agnes these last years - many of them witnessed her "cut the strings" that had them bound to Wanda. To them, she's a hero, so when Wanda left her there in a Looney Tunes condition, they likely felt obligated to look after her and play along with her delusions.

[@dresdenwarlock7978]

First 2 episodes are excellent! Looking forward to your next reaction. I ALWAYS love it when y'all talk Dresden, as soon as you brought up the lock of hair I knew where it was going.

[@StevenHouse1980]

She was in her own mental prison and this is her brakeing out.

[@randyzochoa6358]

Jay, thank you for the riff of "Here's to the Witches Who Lunch." It was an appreciated reference because out of all the reactors I watch, you seem to be the only one who knows who Patti LuPone is.

[@liamross340]

really highlights how insane it is she agreed to do this show considering the lack of crossover. she tends to have good taste though so it must be worth it. or the paycheck was huge. hopefully both

[@Engiflux]

I am very curious on where this series goes. Also Aubrey Plaza playing Aubrey Plaza was not something i expected...

[@stewartmacwilliam7160]

Her FBI name should have been Roberta Macklin

[@nothefabio]

Nicholas Scratch is Agatha's son. He also appears in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

[@danielcopeland3544]

"Old Nick" and "Old Scratch" are both names for the Devil. Not surprising two different pieces of media would think to combine them.

[@r_r_r_r]

I am SO IN for this ride! Can't wait to enjoy each ep all over again with you guys.

[@AllGreyEverything]

"That's not true. We live in a society." 😂

[@farli]

To remind the lads: after attaining her Scarlet Witch powers, Wanda trapped Agatha in her own personal version of the Wandavision Hex as punishment for Agatha's actions. So for the last 3 years, the other residents have been keeping an eye on her, and playing along as she acts out the different shows she's in. Hence "Herb" and the neighbour and the yellow flowers boundary line. It's only started failing now with the destruction of the Darkhold and its "owner" along with it. (Its not clear if the residents think she was always on *their* side (they were all aware the original Hex was Wanda's fault and did see her face off with Wanda), or if they were just genuinely being a supportive community post-traumatic city-wide event - but I personally hope we get a few brief flashback peeks at that as the series progresses.)

[@northwind2538]

It's been 3 years for us since WandaVision, but also the MCU itself has progressed to some time in 2026 so it's been 3 years for Agatha as well since WandaVision took place in 2023. Also, Nicholas Scratch sounds familiar to you because Agatha's rabbit is named Senor Scratchy, which she called him in WandaVision but conveniently did not call him that here.

[@nephtys369]

Someone pointed out that the people in west view know Agatha fought Wanda and it caused them to be free. So even though she’s technically a villain they see her as a hero. And they know she got cursed. So that’s why they played along with her delusions.

[@hanozitravel]

🔴 Fun fact: Andrew Oga (the author of the book that was stolen) is an anagram for “Wandagore”, the very mountain fortress where the Scarlet Witch met her supposed end in “Multiverse of Madness”. Great reaction as always guys!

[@liamross340]

well rio and agnes sure have a history that at the very least is flirtacious and at most they were a thing in the past

[@patrickmcguire7896]

Yeah it was a good thing they released two episodes at the same time. Cause the first was nothing but questions. Not that that’s a bad thing

[@thedefinitionisthis]

Definitely reminded me of the beginning of WandaVision, where the first 2 or 3 eps felt more like setting up and asking questions, before the actual plot kicked in.

[@blsco]

Have been waiting for this reaction all day. HOORAY!!!

[@iam_ad629]

This was a great 1st episode. Loved the detective element and it felt like a real show and not a spoof🎃🎃

[@jeffblue19_2.0]

The 🐇 is named Señor Scratchy, remember? And, interestingly, Agatha seems to have had a son named Nicholas Scratch. I think her son is now her familiar.

[@JonInCanada1]

Another fun note is that in Old English, they used to refer to the Devil as Old Nick or Old Scratch.

[@MagicalSkyWizard]

I don’t understand how Erik Voss doesn’t think about that and just assumes that this random hot topic teen is the son of a 600 year old woman from Salem days. No it’s quite obviously the bunny that they’ve made prominent in the show lmao

[@muouy44]

Nicolas Scratch is Agatha's son and one of her main antagonists, idk if the bunny is actually him or not. "Teen" is Billy Kaplan, he's the reincarnated version of Wanda's son Billy also known as Wiccan, which means Tommy/Speed is alive and reincarnated somewhere as Tommy Shepherd

[@bullseyecello]

I was skeptical at first but ya know what this was really fun

[@stephmgreen]

lol as a Philadelphian I just didn’t see the Delco/Mare of Easttown accent in Agatha All Along as accurate. Now, all that being said, JAY nailed it. He literally nailed the accent.

[@alex.bradford]

I started watching your channel with Wandavision, and I’m sooo glad to continue the story with Agatha All Along💜💜💜

[@alex.bradford]

So basically, when wanda put agatha in her own personal hex, under a spell where she was the only one in the tv world, but Wanda’s death distorted the spell. So Agatha stayed in her own home, but lived her life in her house as if it was the tv world. SO when "Teen" started pointing out different things like the photos and painting, the hex began to wear off, and completely wore off when Rio was able to help Agatha get out completely. Hope that was a big help, if that made any sense

[@skychamber_studios]

I was waiting for your reaction the most. I have a feeling Jay is going to adore this show

[@bengilbert7655]

I thought the acting was kind of clunky in the first episode, but you're right Agatha was still trapped in her Agnes character from Wandavision. Hahn is a great actress , so I have no worries on that front, and Joe Locke is also an amazing actor. I loved him so much in Heartstopper even though teen romance/drama is far from the type of show I would normally watch. You should watch it even if just for yourselves and not for the channel.

[@megdelaney3677]

The style of the first part of this episode reminds me of 'The Killing', a U.S. crime-drama series 2011-2014. This series in turn was taken from a Danish series 2007-2012.

[@OzoneGamerStation]

I hope episode 2 reaction is uploaded soon. Love the reactions.

PSA On the topic of rabbits - they are adorable, but INCREDIBLY fragile and just about anything (too hot, too cold, too little food, too much food, etc) will end them. Absolutely not a set it and forget it pet like a cat. Read up on the care before getting one.

From the period it dates, mourning lockets and mourning rings were common. They would be gold and black and carry a lock of hair from the deceased. Somewhere would be inscribed the death date and the initials of the deceased.

[@nerddowellanderson8982]

Only 2 episodes in but a big complaint people had about Multiverse of Madness was that Wandavison wasn't required viewing for the film writing process or at least peaks at the script, where as so far Agatha All Along really feels like the slightly darker, definitely goofier follow-up to Wandavison and honestly it's nice to see some Westviewians back too.

[@andrewchristian5406]

The look of the show from the beginning reminded me of the killing

[@thenerdynetwork1]

Fun Fact: Nicholas Scratch is Agatha Harkness' son in the comics and father to the Salem Seven.

[@lisamarieligreci-newton7804]

One thing that stuck out on re-watch was when Agatha/Agnes says something like how she's in an involuntary confinement for 'punching a suspect' which she then says turned out to be a felon, so I wonder if that's also a comment about how Wanda turned out to be kinda dark, haha.

[@Greenhawk4]

To be fair tho it’s kind of how a giant connected universe/story works having to have seen the previous entries and stuff. It’s like starting a book in the middle of it. Also some stuff you probably wouldn’t understand or know the significance of if you haven’t seen stuff like wandavision or MOM and you probably would be confused from and not understand those as well.

Did you notice that Anges O'Conor was on the left side of the titles (sinister) but all the in characters outside her personal Hex is people freed from Westview but still live there, are on the right *Side of the Police Tape* in the titles. Reflecting how Agatha was still trapped in the sinister side of WESTVIEW. *ALSO BONUS ACTION* The population lowered after WANDAVISION because once freed from the Hex many people would have left but homeowners would have stayed for the Blip inflation. Bonus bonus action: The pizza box was an obivious TV ref to how it was veritcal and yet no cheese or sause was on the top of the pizza when presented.
