    People are burnt out of blatant female exploitation grabs masked as ’empowerment’ especially when they’re really badly written.

    Even though this is supposed to be a comedy, I found the producer making the same annoyances I had with this show.

    Especially how her being in the MCU and breaking the fourth wall to alter the ending devalues the infinity saga’s main storyline.

    Not to mention how the show criticizing bad writing then fixing it is, like the producer says, also an indication of their own bad writing.

    Love Ryan and these videos. They’re always so tight.

    All I wanted was a bad ass women tearing villains in half and hulk smashing and uncontrollable rage. But what I got was a sitcom.

    I feel like “She does stuff” is really why I fell off the show. It all felt a bit wandering and aimless. I got to the episode where she says she’s going to a wedding or something and thought ‘What is this show even meant to be about?!’. And I say that as someone who was fine with some of the incarnations I’ve seen of her prior to the show.

    Granted I’m not the most in-tune with the character so it could be misplaced expectations on my part, but I kept feeling like I was watching She Hulk being slipped into the shoes of another character rather than the actual She Hulk. I dunno, I just wasn’t super feeling it. I kept waiting for a hook but never really found one.

    I think having characters just doing things can be interesting if you’re already attached in some way, but making it a character’s debut is a bit of a strange choice. I never felt like the show gave me a reason to care about why Jennifer was doing anything. There was no real mystery, she mastered her powers instantly, she had no goal to really reach. Felt like the show was passively saying ‘You *love* this character’ without really showing me why I should.

    To me it feels like the meta-ending approach could have worked if the whole show was a meta show about the state of the MCU, and they used it to kind of re-align the MCU in a new direction. “This is now about comedy” or “This is now about something else.”

    Instead it just feels a little ham-fisted.

    “We did this on purpose we promise.”

    “Why?”

    “Keep watching and see!!!!!!”

    I thought Jen was the most dislikable protagonist I’ve ever seen in a show. Her behavior towards Bruce was extremely condescending.

    Fry, there’s nothing else here! You only wrote two pages of dialog!

    I had a huge eye roll when she was trying to explain to Bruce how her life so difficult because of catcalling lol. Trying to one-up Bruce of all people in terms of life difficulty is laughably dumb

    Wow, I gave up on that show a couple of episodes in, but I can’t believe they went that route for the ending. Even the writers are tired of their own shit, so why should any of us bother?

    The biggest issue with the MCU isn’t the over saturation of the tv shows, or Phase 4, or any of that.

    The biggest issue is that the MCU just isn’t fun to talk about anymore.

    To all the people getting all defensive about She-Hulk in the comments, I hope you realize that Ryan George is pretty tongue-in-cheek about all the critiques he sarcastically brings to light in these Pitch Meetings. He makes these types of videos for almost every popular movie/TV show, especially MCU, even the great ones that fans universally love. These Pitch Meetings aren’t meant to be taken that seriously.

    So please… get ALLL the way off his back about that thing!

    It’s true. I stopped watching about halfway through ms marvel and just can’t be bothered to watch anymore. They’ve reached too deep into the barrel and are going way too fast.

    I think the bigger meta is how much of a fan the writers are and how little they know about what they are writing but then that is also the story of Jennifer Walters.

    Maybe in the hands of another actress- say, Blake Lively- this could have worked but this actress? Not so much.

    Deadpool snark doesn’t seem to fit that well on her as a character.

    Maybe later we’ll find out this was all done by Franklin Richards or is a part of an incursion or the legacy of Doctor Strange’s multiverse breaking.

    This is my thought about it.
