    That’s the message they should have been sending for a while. She-Hulk and Moon Knight were good examples of shows that didn’t try to shape the larger narrative. It helps to have seen other shows and movies, but you don’t have to have seen everything. That’s the way comics work. Big crossover events can become a big deal.

      I agree but this article just seems to clarify they have no idea what branding works.

      It’s “Marvel Spotlight” so you don’t need to have seen anything. Then Echo comes out and the first episode is basically a recap and hopefully enough context.

      Now it’s “Marvel Television” which means the same thing so watch “Agatha All Along” which will 100% depend on WandaVision and maybe a little bit of Multiverse of Madness.

      I agree that She-Hulk or even more so Moon Knight can be watched solo, but maybe give some context.

      She-Hulk does depend on Endgame. I get Endgame is the biggest movie of all time (at release time), so it’s a given, but figure out how to clarify or set the clear expectations of a recap.
