If you haven't watched this show then please don't carry on because there is going to be spoilers as I've warned in the title of this thread.
When this was first announced I did have some reserves about watching it, mostly because I wasn't a big fan of Wanda; not sure why though because she did become part of the Avengers.
Then as the trailers started to come out I watched then and got interested because it looked really good. It thought that I would give it a go to see what it was really like. So then this morning (Saturday 16th of January '21) I finally decided to watch the first two episodes and I like it.
There's heavy presence of S.W.O.R.D and Stark is mentioned along with Strucker and notably Hydra which I might have got a bit excited about because it's fucking Hydra and they seem to pop up everywhere but whether they are a huge part of this I'm not sure but all in all the takes of the shows are good.
I didn't know the first one but apparently it's a take of The Dick Van Dyke Show but the second one is definitely Bewitched.
Wanda did see someone and then it was taken out by who I guess is controlling the world that she's in or maybe she's done it to herself because she can't take the grief of losing both Vision and -or- her brother.
There is a voice calling out to her over the radio when someone is asking her who had done this to her and it's not a voice I recognise but it would be interesting to see if it's someone that is well known in the MCU but again whether that is a part of this I'm not sure but really excited to see the next episode that airs next week!

I thought the voice was Falcon at first when the radio started tuning over to him, but it might be someone new cause I can't really pinpoint. But who knows. I'm really excited about the show, though. I love the homages to the classics and the slapstick comedy mixed with the eerie knowledge that something is very very wrong with them.

And whenever they get close it gets taken out.
Wanda was talking about her brother and when Geraldine said about Ultron I thought Wanda might've and nearly did break, do you think it's Hydra? I mean it wouldn't surprise me if it is because they keep slithering out of places. Or could it be S.W.O.R.D?
Either way we saw that at the end Geraldine ended up with soldiers around her and I'm excited to watch the rest of the series and both love and hate the weekly episodes.

I'm pretty sure its SWORD at the forefront, but I don't know if they trapped Wanda in this odd reality, or if Wanda trapped herself and SWORD is trying to get her out, or if someone else trapped her. I've seen some speculation that it might be Mephisto behind it all, which would connect this show with the Doctor Strange sequel

I think she might be trapped there by someone else but I could be wrong. Who is Mephisto? I haven't watched the Doctor Strange movie so I have no idea who that even is unless they appeared in the last two Avengers movie and even then I couldn't name all the characters in it.

He hasn't appeared in any of the marvel movies yet, that I know of, but is a pretty big villain in the Doctor Strange comic universe. Kind of looks/acts like the devil, does all sorts of trickery and misdeeds.

Holy shit that episode. So from what we know S.W.O.R.D isn't apparently the ones doing all of this but Wanda so maybe the whole she can't live without Vision could be the reason but I also feel like there's a twist to this and it was so nice to see Darcy again.
And I'm so here for women creating organizations!

So that episode left me a bit confused because when Wanda came out of the bubble she threatened SWORD and basically told them where to go and then once back in the bubble and Vision started asking her questions she didn't know that she's the one doing it or maybe she isn't the one doing it.
But they brought Evan Peters in to it as the Pietro from the X-men movies but it would've been interesting to have seen Aaron back. Even Darcy was surprised that they "recast Pietro" which actually made me laugh
There has got to be a twist to all of this because I don't think it's as cut and dry as Wanda doing it all, I could be wrong but we'll have to see where next weeks episode takes us.

Okay so this episode leaves me wanting the next one (Like they all do) but I'm still not sure whether Wanda knows she's doing all of it or not because one minute she's telling SWORD to back off (In the other episode) and then the next she's not sure she's doing it at all so it makes me wonder if she knows at all.
As for Pietro I really don't like this version and I wonder if they will bring Aaron in to it or not but at the moment I'm finding it hard to relate to this guy but that might be down to the fact I don't really like Evan Peters and if I remember rightly when Aaron became Pietro in the Avengers movie he begged Elizabeth to be in the movie with him, they had just come off of doing Godzilla together I think and he wanted her with him in the movie.
I feel sorry for Vision and as for the Assistant Director of SWORD.. he's an absolute dick to have spoken to Monica the way that he did.

Okay so i got excited when it said the episode was over 34 minutes but found that it was nearly 2 mins of previously on WandaVision and then nearly four minutes of credits so it's not really 34 minutes
And it was all Agnes/Agatha Harkness
I do love Darcy Lewis in it though!

I'm confused because last week it said that Agatha Harkness was behind it all but this week Agatha said that it was all down to Wanda... so which is it?

I feel like the last episode was a let down because they teased about a big cameo but there was no cameo. I do feel for Wanda though because at the end of all of that she's still alone.
