My SPOILER FILLED First Impressions of What If...?

 


Marvel fans instead of waiting months or even a few years to see our next entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe we now waiting at the most two or even three weeks. Which I will admit is very risky move since you risk either burning your audience out with all of this new content or you risk just flooding the market with all of this new content which isn't a good thing at all and so it's good thing then that instead of a new live action show we have a new animated show and no i'm not talking about Spidey And His Amazing Friends either and so join me as I give you my SPOILER FILLED first impressions of the show which just based of off this very first episode promises to be really good with the show in question (pun very much intended) being called simply just "What If...?" enjoy.

Now then the plot of this first episode is sadly one that I cannot tell because it's a huge spoiler for the episode but I can give you my opinions on the plot of this episode. Now then in terms of what I personally thought about the plot of this very / particular episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the plot of this very / particular episode was really freaking good and as well as being really freaking engaging and really freaking well written in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Jeffrey Wright as Uatu / The Watcher and Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter / Captain Carter. Also starring in this episode is Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes , Dominic Cooper as Howard Stark , Stanley Tucci as Abraham Erskine , Toby Jones as Arnim Zola , Bradley Whitford as Colonel John Flynn , Ross Marquand as Johann Schmidt / Red Skull , Darrell Hammond as A Nazi General and Josh Keaton as Steve Rogers.

As for what I personally thought about the voice acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the voice acting that's featured / presented to to us in this very / particular episode was really good. Heck Josh Keaton sounded so much like Chris Evens to me that I actually didn't notice that they recast the part of Steve Rogers and as for the cast as whole every single actor that's appearing in / starring in this very / particular episode did a really job portraying their respective character in my opinion anyways / at least. 



Doing the animation for this episode and i'm assuming also for the rest of this show is Blue Spirit Animation. Now as for what I personally thought about the animation that's in this very / particular episode well then in all honesty the animation that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode is a very mixed bag for me personally this is because even tho the quality of the animation in that's in this episode is indeed very high it's the mouth movements of the characters that seem to be a tad bit of this is even more evident when the shading of the characters comes close to the characters mouths which makes the characters mouth movements not only a tad bit off but also very distracting well in my opinion anyways / at least.

SPOILERS START HERE!!!!!!!!!!



Now then there is a reason as to why I couldn't give you guys a summery of the plot of this very / particular episode with that reason being that the plot of this very / particular episode is basically just a shortened version of the plot to the first Captain American Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film AKA Captain America: The First Avenger. Which I honestly freaking feel was a brave choice since you don't really have to change much in order to fit / have Peggy carter be the main hero of that particular / very story in my opinion anyways / at least.

Now this whole series is all about different choices being made and in this case the choice being made is that Peggy Carter doesn't go up to the box to see Steve Rogers get transformed into Captain America she instead stays there down there with him. This also means that she's now able to kill the HYDRA / N*zi as he blows up the place where Steve Rogers is about to become Captain America I honestly do like this example of the multiverse theory since it really does indeed do alot of things with it's new hero and due to the set up of the show it now means that we could quite possibly see combinations / teams ups with people that we've so far not or even never got to see in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies.


Now then just because Steve Rogers doesn't become Captain America in this universe doesn't mean that he's left out entirely since he does indeed play a huge role in this very / particular episode and he does also get his own I guess you could say superhero name. Which is HYDRA Stomper but in reality the suit he's given by Howard Stark to help Peggy Carter out as HYDRA Stomper is basically just a prototype to the Iron Man suits and so basically Howard Stark in this universe at least made the first ever Iron Man suit which doesn't really make sense since Howard Stark wouldn't have had the things necessary back then in the good old 1940's in order to create a fully functioning Iron Man suit prototype but hey at least this very early Iron Man suit looks kind of cool at least in my freaking opinion anyways / at least.

In all honesty just based of this very first episode I can honestly see this show being very divisive with people either really loving / liking this show or with people just straight up hating or not liking this show at all in the slightest. Which is a shame because just based of this very first episode this show does seem like that it actually has the potential to be a universally loved show but just based on how people aren't liking the design of / for Peggy Carter it looks like that this very show could be like I said a very divisive show among fans of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways / at least. 


Now then like I just said it seems that alot of people online are having a huge issue with the design for Peggy Carter in this show/ in this very / particular and while I can indeed see there point of view. Since when Peggy Carter is in her captain Carter uniform her body looks like that of a mans I personally have no problems with the redesign of Peggy carter for this show since when she us out of her Captain Carter she does indeed go back to having a more traditional female body shape which you can indeed see in the above picture but at the same time those people who are having issues with the design of Peggy carter for this show do have a point since when she is in her Captain Carter uniform she looks like an even more butcher version of Bruce Campbell in my opinion anyways / at least.

Now then this very / particular episode has a grand total running time of exactly thirty one minuets and twelve seconds and well if i'm being very freaking honest here people that exact running time was the perfect amount of running time for this very / particular episode in my opinion anyways / at least. This is because the episode is just basically hitting alot of the greatest hits from a movie and so it doesn't really need a long time in order to fully tell it's story nd as such having this episode be as short as it is is a really good thing in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then since this show is indeed an action show and that does infact mean that there are action scenes / action sequences in this very / particular episode and that does infact mean that I have to actually / personally talk about the action scenes / action sequences that are featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode and well if i'm being honest. The action that's in this episode is really freaking good with Peggy Carter / Captain Carter doing alot of really cool moves and it really does help that all of the action scenes / action sequences are not only really exciting but are also really freaking cool to see / watch in my very humble and as well as being in my very my very honest opinion anyways / at least.

SPOILERS END HERE!!!!!!!!!!


Overall this was a really good start to this ' show / series but who knows if the rest of this show will be as good as this first / debut / particular episode was. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this episode in this very post however I will not be giving this episode a rating simply because this is only the shows first ever episode and this isn't a review this is just my first impressions of the What If...? Marvel animated TV series.

Now then as for where I got all of the images that I personally used in this very post well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very post from the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page and nowhere else and since I only went to the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page and nowhere else for the images that I actually ended up using in this very post. My personally favourite website to use to get images from this very episode is of course the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom this is because the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page actually has alot of images from this very / particular episode and also because pretty much / nearly all of the images that are currently up on the official Marvel Cinematic Universe are are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

Lucha Underground "October 29th 2014" Review

 


Wrestling fans there is without a shadow of a doubt that the biggest pro wrestling company in the wold is very easily the WWE and as such there are very little to no alternative companies to the WWE out since of of course AEW , ROH Impact Wrestling. As such we really do have to be watch out because you never really know when there's going to be an alternative to the WWE out there and well in 2014 we actually got another alternative to the WWE and so join me as I review the October 29th 2014 episode (which is also the very first episode) of the wrestling show and the wrestling promotion that was being called simply just "Lucha Underground" enjoy.

The biggest and only storyline that we had going into and running all throughout this debut episode of Lucha Underground is that Lucha Undergrounds owner Dario Cueto is offering a staggering $100,000 American dollars to the wrestler who impresses him the most on that particular night. Now then I will very fully admit that as intriguing as this story sounds the makers of Lucha Underground don't really do that much with it in this particular episode outside of teasing things that happen in future / later episodes which is a shame because this storyline is a fine enough storyline for a debut episode but when you do the bare minimum with it the storyline just comes across as looking weak which pure and simply just isn't the case here with this particular storyline in my opinion anyways / at least.


The set for Lucha Underground is meant to look like an Aztec Temple but to me at least this set just looks like a dirty and grimy looking warehouse. I'm a fan of minimalistic wrestling stage sets since there is a certain charm to those kids of wrestling stage sets that being said however the sets still have to look like what the intended inspiration is and since the inspiration for this set is an Aztec Temple you'd think that the makers of this show would go out of there way to make sure that this set looks like an actual Aztec Temple but nope the makers of this show clearly chose not to put in the actual effort that would required to make an Aztec Temple inspired set instead they chose to just put a few Lucha Underground posters , some lights and wrestling ring up in some building and call it a day which just makers the makers of this show look lazy and unprofessional in my opinion anyways / at least.

Now then I will very fully admit that at least in this episode of Lucha Underground since there's not really alot there in the set to begin with and so it really wouldn't take much effort in order for the wrestlers that are competing on this very show to make the most of the set. However with that being said I did find it rather weird that this set doesn't have a traditional stage setup with no titantron or anything like that / of the sort. 


Now then unlike the WWE Lucha Ground made great use of a more filmic style look for it's backstage promos which is honestly something that I think helped set Lucha Underground apart from all of the other wrestling promotions that were out there in 2014. I honestly really do like the fact that Lucha Underground went with this more filmic style approach to it's backstage promos since it adds to the overall production value of the Lucha Underground show as a freaking whole in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then this show does indeed feature a fairly controversial wrestler with the wrestler in question being called of course simply just Sexy Star. Now then incase your wondering what it is exactly that makes Sexy Star such a controversial wrestler it's because at Triplemanía XXV Sexy Star was in a match against Rosemary and during the match Sexy Star would apply an unplanned armbar onto Rosemary which would then of course lead to Rosemary being legitimately injured.

I will very fully admit that I don't know much about the incident with Rosemary since i've not seen the match nor have I done that much reading up on either the incident in question or the match in question and as such I can't give that much of an opinion on the incident or the match in question. However if this is indeed true then it's really bad thing that Sexy Star did since when your a wrestler you would never ever go out to deliberately injure your opponent regardless of how you personally about your opponent however this could have been a simply case of either miscommunication or it could have been simply a case of Rosemary forgetting that there was an armbar spot planned for the match but in all honesty the only three people who will ever know the truth or both Sexy Star herself , Rosemary herself and the referee.   


Rather shockingly there was only three wrestling matches on this whole card which for your debuting episode isn't really a good thing at all in my opinion anyways / at least. Since in my opinion anyways / at least you should have a good decent amount of wrestling matches on your debuting show just to get people more interested in watching the show and plus if you had alot more wrestling matches on your debuting episode it would then allow your storyline for this episode to mean something because of the fact that you'll be seeing more wrestlers competing to earn that freaking huge $100,000 American dollar prize money.


This episode of Lucha Underground had a grand total running time of exactly forty three minuets and nineteen seconds and which if i'm being well and truly very freaking honest here people this episode could and more importantly should have been alot longer. Since this show is a new wrestling show and so they have to try and convince people that they should be watching Lucha Underground instead of any of the other wrestling based shows that were on in 2014 and plus with this show having an incredibly short running time alot of the matches that are in the card of this show are very short and thus the wrestlers that are wrestling in those incredibly short matches aren't given the best opportunity to show what it is that they can do and tell a good story at the same time because they have to hit all of these match beats in their respective matches in such an incredibly short amount of time but that's just what I think anyways and that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways / at least.



Now then since this show is a wrestling based show after all and that does infact mean that are some actual wrestling matches n this wrestling based show and that infact means that I have to actually talk about the actual wrestling that's featured / presented to us in this actual / very episode and well in my opinion anyways / at least that the wrestling that's featured / presented to us in this actual / very episode is really good. This is because in my opinion anyways / at least this debuting episode has alot of really good wrestlers competing in wrestling matches and heck it was the main event of this very / particular / actual episode that actually reminded me of how good of wrestler John Hannagan AKA Johnny Nitro AKA John Morrison AKA Johnny Mundo really is since his match with Prince Puma is very easily the best match of the night / in this actual / very episode in my opinion anyways / at least.


Overall in terms of just debuting wrestling episodes this wasn't that bad of an episode since you do get a feel for what this promotion and for what this show is / was about but at the same time it's still not that good of an episode for all of the reasons that I mentioned / listed in this review and then some. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very / actual episode in this very review and as such that means that this very / actual episode gets a grand score of a 6.5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I got all of the images that I used in this review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I used in this very review from the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page and nowhere else and since I only went to the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page and nowhere else for the images that I personally did infact end up using in this review. I have no choice but to say that my personally preferred website to use to get the images from this actual / very / particular episode is infact the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page this is because the official the Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page actually and rather shockingly has alot of images from this episode and plus all of the images that I personally used and that I personally found and that are also currently up and on / featured on the official Pro Wrestling fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high in definition.

I Dream Of Jeannie "The Lady In The Bottle" Review

 


Classic TV comedy sitcom fans there are so many classic TV comedy sitcoms that are currently out there that i've been wanting to review / take a look at for a while now and well the episode that i'm about to review for you all today belong to such a TV show. Since even tho i've seen this episode I think once before it's also an episode that i've been wanting to review for you all for a fairly long time now and so join me as I review the first ever episode of the TV show that is called simply just "I Dream Of Jeannie" with the episode in question being called simply just "The Lady In The Bottle" and so enjoy the review everybody / everyone.

The plot of this episode is after crash landing on a mysterious island astronaut Captain Tony Nelson finds a mysterious bottle which he then proceeds to uncork but by doing so he unleashes a beautiful and mysterious genie. Now then I will very fully admit that the plot of this very / particular episode is bit on the weak side of things since the plot of the episode is barely even mentioned or brought up in the rest of the episode but at the same time it was still a very / fairly enjoyable plotline to see playout in this very / particular episode.


Starring in this very / particular is Barbara Eden as Jeannie and the late and always great Larry Hagman as Captain Anthony Nelson. Also starring in this very / particular episode is Hayden Rorke as Dr. Alfred Bellows , Bill Daily as Captain Roger Healey , Philip Ober as Gen. Wingard Stone , Karen Sharpe as Melissa Stone , Don Dubbins as Lt. Pete Conway, USNR and Baynes Barron as Commander Ben Roberts.

Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode in all honesty I honestly thought that that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular was very passable at best. Which is a shame because when the acting in this episode wants to be good it can be really good but alot of the time the performances that are coming from the actors and actresses that are starring / appearing in this very / particular episode just seems of which is to be expected from the first ever episode of a V show but it's still a very negative thing in this very / particular episode in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then jus like with the Bewitched TV series I in all honesty have no clue / no idea as to how the effects that we see in this very / particular episode were created. Which is a shame because apart from one shot where you can quite clearly tell that they used the sixties equivalent of green screen or blue screen the effects that are featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode really do hold up really freaking well in my opinion anyways / at least. 


This show is pretty much exactly like the classic Bewitched TV series in that both shows star a stunningly beautiful leading actress whose character has something to do with the supernatural and they have them be paired up with a male who doesn't want them to use there supernatural powers / gifts in order for them both to fit into society alot better. Now i'm not saying that this show is an exact clone of Bewitched because it's all honesty not but if you look at the similarities between the two shows then you can't help but wonder if this show copied the basic premise of Bewitched but altered a few things in order for it slip by without the makers of bewitched straight up suing the makers of this show.

Now then one of the things that I didn't really like about this episode is kind of a spoiler for the episode and since this episode is fairly good and I do want you guys to see this episode without knowing that much about the actually episode. However if you've seen Bewitched they do something in this episode which makes Larry Hagman's character really / fairly unlikable as it's something that doesn't really make sense for both the character and for the plot of this episode.  


Now then I will very fully admit that this episode isn't as good as it perhaps could have and /or more importantly should have been. Since this episode doesn't really give us any reasons as to why we should the characters of both Captain Anthony Nelson and Jeannie likable in the slightest since yes both characters do indeed come across as being very likable at certain points in the episode but at the same time both characters also do things that could possibly make them come across as being extremely unlikable as well but that's just in my very humble and as well as being in my very honest opinion anyways / at least.

This very / particular episode has a grand total running time of exactly twenty five minuets and forty five seconds and well if i'm being well and truly really freaking honest here people that running is the exact right amount of running time for this episode. Since / simply because this very / particular doesn't really have enough there in terms of plot / story and so trying to make this episode by anywhere that's even close to thirty minuets would be stretching an already pretty thinly drawn story / plot even thinner in my opinion anyways / at least.


Now then since this episode is indeed an episode of a comedy TV show / TV series after all that does infact mean that there are some actual jokes that are in this episode and that means that I have to actually talk about the jokes that are featured / presented to us in the actual episode itself and if i'm being really freaking honest here people the jokes that are actually featured / presented to us in the actual episode itself are a very mixed bag of affairs for me personally. This is simply because alot of the jokes just simply aren't that funny which is a shame because when this episode does indeed tell a really freaking funny joke it can indeed be a really freaking funny joke indeed it's just a shame that there's not that many actually funny jokes that are to be found in the actual episode itself in my opinion anyways / at least.


Overall this wasn't a bad first episode in the slightest but that's also the problem because this also wasn't a very good episode since this episode was a very middle of the road episode since for every one thing that this episode does that's good it does two more things that are bad / wrong in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very episode in this very review and that means that this very / particular episode gets of I Dream Of Jeannie a grand score of a 5 out of 10 from me.

Now then as for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very from Wikipedia ,the official Black-Ish fandom wiki page , the official I Dream Of Jeannie fandom wiki page and from Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get the actual images that are from this actual episode being Google Images simply because Google Images actually has a wide varitity of images from this particular / very episode and plus alot of if not all of the images that are from this actual episode and that are currently / presently featured / up and on Google Images are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

Veep "Fundraiser" Review

 


Ladies and gentlemen i've been on the look out to find as many different types of sitcoms as I can possibly find be they the classic family sitcoms 1950 to 1960's. To something from a different era the point is i've been trying to find alot of different sitcom shows just to see what all the fuss was about and well now i've found myself a workplace sitcom and so join me as I review the first very first episode of Veep with the episode in question being called simply just "Fundraiser" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is Vice President Selina Meyer wants to wants to make the implementation of a Clean Jobs Commission her main legacy however when a Tweet from a member of her staff gets out and annoys the people in the plastics industry Selina must try to do damage control before it's far to freaking late. Now then in terms if what I personally thought about the plot of this particular / very episode in all honesty I honestly thought that the plot of this episode was shockingly really good and I say shockingly because i'm not usually a fan of workplace sitcom plots just because nine times out of ten the plots just aren't that good but nope the plot of this very / particular episode was in all honesty really freaking good in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is this shows producer or executive producer Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Selina Meyer and Anna Chlumsky as Amy Brookheimer. Also starring in this episode is Tony Hale as Gary Walsh , Matt Walsh as Mike McLintock , Reid Scott as Dan Egan , Timothy Simons as Jonah Ryan , Sufe Bradshaw as Sue Wilson , Kate Burton as Barbara Hallowes , Wil Love as Phil Dorsey , Timothy Hayes Lynch as Mike Dudley and Michael Mack as Paul Burton.

Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode in all honesty I honestly thought / felt that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very episode was / is really freaking good. This due to two things the first of which being the actors and actresses that are starring in this show are genuinely good actors and actresses and the second of which both the writing and directing are really freaking good. 



Now then for those of you who don't know this show is actually an adaptation of classic British BBC comedy TV series The Thick Of It and The The Thick Of Its very own spin off film which is called simply just In The Loop. I will say that in terms of adaptations this is in all honesty a really good adaptation since it keeps the mockumentary look and style of The Thick Of It but but there are alot of changes made to actually show itself for it be it's own very unique thing.


In all honesty i'd say that this episode is a good example of a workplace sitcom since you really do get a feeling comradery between alot of if not all of this shows main cast of characters which is something that I think is essential for a workplace sitcom / comedy to really work. This is because at it's heart a workplace sitcom / comedy are always going to be ensemble comedies and so you need that feeling of comradery between all of the main cast of characters otherwise the show just falls flat on it's face in my opinion anyways / at least.

I will very fully admit that HBO is perhaps the best home for a show like this simply because / due to how grounded in reality this show well and truly is and as such a show like this very / particular show just wouldn't work on a big major network. This is because alot of the major networks prefer sitcoms that aren't grounded that much in reality and so they can have the characters not swearing in certain situations where they would normally swear but because this show is up and on HBO the characters can now fully swear as and when they would normally would do in real life. 


Sadly tho this episode isn't perfect as I did personally find some faults / flaws with the actual episode itself. The first of which being the fact that none of the characters in this episode at least come across as being that likable which I get it that might be the point since this show is meant to satirize American politics but at the same time this is still a TV show and as such you do still have to make your main characters somewhat likable.

This episode has a grand total running time of exactly twenty nine minuets and fifteen seconds and if i'm being honest this episode did feel a tad bit on the long side. However at the same time I can't really say what scenes you'd need to cut out of this episode since every single scene is an important part of this episode and so it's honestly hard for me to say why I personally felt that this very / particular episode was a tad bit on the long side.


Now then this episode is an episode of a comedy TV show after all and so that means that I have to actually talk about the jokes that are featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode and if i'm being very freaking honest here people the jokes that are featured / presented to us in this in this very / particular episode aren't weren't that funny to me personally anyways / at least. Which is a shame because when this show does or actually says something that's actually funny it can be really freaking funny but there are alot more bad and unfunny jokes then / than there are actually good and actually funny jokes in this particular / very episode in my opinion anyways / at least.


Overall this episode had the potential to be great but for some rather strange reason is just couldn't live up the high standards that I had for this show in my head which is a shame because this episode and I assume the rest of this show is very well written and is very well acted. Now i've talk about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very / particular episode in this very review and as such that means that this very / particular episode gets a score of a 7.5 out of 10 from this comedy fan.

Now then as for where I got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from  Wikipedia , the official I Dream Of Jeannie fandom wiki page and from the official Veep fandom wiki page. With my personally referred website to use to get the images that are from this particular / very episode and that I personally used in this very review being the official Veep fandom wiki page just simply due to the fact that the official Veep fandom wiki page has a wide varitity of images that are from this particular / very episode and plus alot of the images that are currently featured and as well as being up an on the official Veep fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

Wandavision "Filmed Before A Live Studio Audience" Review

 

Marvel fans it's been quite a long time since I last talked about Wandavision and well I thought that it was about time that I talked about this show some more simply because this show was that good in my opinion anyways / at least and now while I indeed talked about this episode when I did my first impressions of Wandavision. This is my actual review of the episode and so you can expect an actual rating at the end of this particular / very review and so join me as I review the debuting episode of Wandavision with the episode in question being called simply just "Filmed Before A Live Studio Audience" enjoy.

The plot of this episode is newlywedded couple Wanda Maximoff and Vision can't remember what is so special about the day that is marked of with a teeny tiny little heart on their calendar and with that hilarity ensues. You guys have no idea how hard it was for me just to write that little summery for this episode because it's so hard to describe what the actual plot of this episode actually is but that might be the point of the show as a whole tho and if i'm being honest the whole boss coming to dinner plot is huge sitcom trope plot line and it's perfect for this show and this plot line was a decent enough plot line to set up this show even if the plot line could be a little bit thinly drawn out at times tho in my opinion anyways / at least.


Starring in this episode is Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff , Paul Bettany as Vision and the sitcom comedy legend that is Debra Jo Rupp as Mrs. Hart. Also starring in this episode is Fred Melamed as Arthur Hart , Kathryn Hahn as Agnes , Asif Ali as Norm , David Lengel as Phil Jones , Ithamar Enriquez as Commercial Man , Victoria Blade as Commercial Woman and Amos Glick as Dennis The Mailman.

Now then as for what I personally thought / felt about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode in all honesty I honestly thought that the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular episode was really good. This is because alot of the actors and actresses that we see in this episode are genuinely really good actors and actresses and even tho looking back you can see certain clues to certain plot points being woven into the performances it's wonderful to see these great actors and actresses weave in these little hints at future plot points and have it be done with just a look which was something I personally rather enjoyed seeing in this very / particular episode.




Now then as alot of who watched Wandavision all the way through the first time as it was being released then you'll know that this show takes alot from alot of classic sitcoms with this episode in particular borrowing stuff from The Dick Van Dyke Show. Now then I honestly do like that both this episode and this show would go out of their way to incorporate several different things that we've seen in various different sitcoms all through out the years as it shows that this makers of this particular / very episode and that the makers of this particular / very TV show have a deep love and a deep understanding of sitcoms and what it is exactly that makes sitcoms so great and so fun to watch.   


I have to fully admit that I think that Marvel is rushing themselves by pumping out / turning out and releasing so many new shows. There's no harm in taking your time in releasing new TV shows just because one TV show has ended doesn't mean that you have to release another one the next / following week which is kind if what Marvel have been doing since about a week or two after Wandavision ended they started releasing The Falcon And The Winter Solider and a week or two after The Falcon And The Solider finished they / Marvel starting releasing episodes of Loki and it was getting to the point where it was becoming to much to soon and honestly because of how fast that these shows were being released I in all honesty haven't seen that much of either Loki or The Falcon And The Winter Solider.

Now then if someone was to say to me that they didn't lie this episode then I would completely understand their point of view. This is simply because the entire concept for / behind this show is kind of strange since you have these comic book characters one of whom you've already seen die and now they are living together in a sitcom type of world / environment that is a pretty strange concept for anyone to wrap their heads around but I will very fully admit that if you love / like the sitcom genre then you'll appreciate all of the tropes and clichés that get touched upon in this very / particular episode in my opinion anyways / at least.


One of the things that I really didn't like about this episode is that it really didn't go as far as it perhaps could or perhaps should have done with it's parody of pretty much all if not alot of 1950's sitcoms. Like they should have had the intro theme / music for this episode be done a big old old school band and there shouldn't have been any hints at Vision and Wanda getting it on shall we say simply because there wasn't any of those kinds of hints in any 1950's American sitcom.

This very / particular episode has a grand total running time of exactly twenty six minuets and thirty three seconds which I honestly felt that that running time was a bit on the long side. Simply because this episode doesn't really have enough there in terms of plot to cover that amount of running and so if anything this episode should have been at the very have been twenty two minuets long in my opinion anyways / at least.



Now then this particular episode is meant to be a comedy and so that means that I have to talk about the actual jokes that are featured / presented to us in this very / particular / actual episode and in my opinion anyways / at least the jokes that are featured / presented to us in this very / particular / actual episode aren't that bad. The issue is however that the jokes that are in this episode aren't that good either which is a shame because when a joke lands it really does work well.


Overall this was a really good first episode to a really great TV series / TV show but this very / particular episode does indeed have it's fair share of problems tho and it's those issues that keep this very / particular episode from being perfect in my opinion anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very / particular episode in this very review and as such this very / particular episode gets a score of an 8 out of 10 from this fan of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Now then as for where I got all of the images that I used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official CBS fandom wiki page , Wikipedia and from the official Marvel Cinematic fandom wiki page. With my personal favourite website to use to get the actual images that are from this very / particular episode that I actually used in this very review being the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page simply because alot of if not all of the images that are currently up featured and on the official Marvel Cinematic Universe fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition.

My First SPOILER FREE Impressions Of Jellystone

 


Ladies and gentlemen we are now living in an age where it seems that every single streaming service that's out there are releasing animated TV shows That are currently starring classic cartoon characters and well HBO Max and Warner Bros Pictures Entertainment have now came out with there own show that featured a bunch of classic cartoon characters and so join me as I give you my spoiler free first impressions of the show in question and with the show in question being called simply just "Jellystone" enjoy.

The basic premise for this show is Yogi Bear , Cindi Bear , Boo-Boo Bear and bunch of other Hanna-Barbera characters all live in this town which is called Jellystone and have to try and get along with each other which is easier said then done when disaster and anarchy is always just one wrong move / accident away. Now then in terms of what I think about the premise of this show in all honest I honestly think / feel that the premise and thus the setup of this show is decent enough for a kids show since it does bring these characters together in a very organic way but at the same time I would have liked it if the makers of this show had come up with a more original and thus unique setup to this show and a more unique way to get all of these characters together in a very organic way.


Starring in this show is Jeff Bergman as Yogi Bear , Mr. Jinks , Wally Gator and Lippy The Lion and Fajer Al-Kaisi as Shazzan and Hadji. Also starring in this show is Yoshi Amao as Anime Yogi , Flula Borg as Gazoo , Jim Conroy as Huckleberry Hound , Captain Caveman , Paw Rugg and Bingo , Andrew Frankel as Fancy-Fancy and Jonny Quest , Ron Funches as Shag Rugg , Katie Grober as Yakky Doodle , this shows creator and executive producer C. H. Greenblatt as Boo-Boo Bear , Doggie Daddy , Peter Potamus , Benny The Ball and Drooper , Grace Helbig as Cindy Bear , Yappee , Taffy Dare and Granny Sweet , Georgie Kidder as Augie Doggie , Brain , Floral Rugg and Kitty Jo , Thomas Lennon as Top Cat , Jenny Lorenzo as Bobbie Looey , Hardy Har Har , Choo-Choo and Spooky , Ulka Simone Mohanty as Loopy De Loop , Lesley Nicol as Winsome Witch , Bernardo de Paula as El Kabong , Mildew Wolf and The King , Angelique Perrin as Ma Rugg , Oscar Reyez as Ruff , Dana Snyder as Snagglepuss , Touché Turtle , Lambs , Cavey Jr. and Tinker , Gaku Space as Anime Huckleberry Hound , Niccole Thurman as Jabberjaw , Squiddly Diddly and Dee Dee Sykes , Paul F. Tompkins as Magilla Gorilla , Fleegle and The Funky Phantom , Melissa Villaseñor as Susan The Guitar and Scott Whyte as Country.

As for what I personally thought about the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular show so far at least the acting that's featured / presented to us in this very / particular show seems to be decent at best. Which is a shame because alot of / a few of the actors and actresses that are starring in /appearing in this show show are indeed really good actors and actresses but this show gives them nothing to work with in terms of what there respective characters personalities are like and thus the actors and actresses that are indeed starring in / appearing in this very / particular show can only do so much performance which in this case only results in a bunch of OK at best performances. 



Doing the animation for this show is Cheeky Little Media and the wonderful folks that are currently over at Snipple Animation. Now while I personally don't mind the animation that i've so far seen in this show since i've seen the first eight segments I do however take issue with the designs of the characters since all of these characters just look ugly and all of these characters look like that they would fit in perfect with the cast of characters from Thundercats Roar or Yabba-Dabba Dinosaurs because that's how bad the characters that are in this show look in my opinion anyways / at least. 


This show just based off of the eight segments that I watched has a ton of references to various other Hanna-Barbera characters TV shows and I think films. Heck you can tell just from the cast list (which i've left unedited in anyway whatsoever by the way) how deep cut some some of the references that we see in this show well and truly are. Heck I had to actually look up some of the characters that are appearing in this show because I honestly haven't / hadn't heard of them however for some strange reason this show really likes to reference The Flintstones which i'm kind of in two minds about since on the one hand I like that this mentions a property that's as old as the Flintstones multi media franchise is but on the one hand all those references did was serve to remind me that I could have been watching a much better show and that's not a good thing at all in my opinion anyways / at least.

The same thing could also be said for alot of the references that we do infact see in this show since it then makes this show run the risk of becoming to fanservicy and thus risk alienating any new fans. However the fact that this mentions so many things that are related to Hanna-Barbera just goes to show you how much of a love and respect that this shows creator and executive producer and voice actor C. H. Greenblatt has for the world of Hanna-Barbera and for the characters that were created by Hanna-Barbera in my opinion anyways / at least.


The closet thing that I can think of to compare this show to / with is The Looney Tunes Show since both shows take a bunch if classic characters and then out them into a situation where they are almost forced to get along with each other. However where as The Looney Tunes Show made the titular Looney Tunes characters seem more adult by putting them into more adult situations and by giving them more mature / adult storylines / plotlines this show takes the opposite approach and is more kid / child friendly and gives the characters more child /kid / family / friendly storylines / plotlines. This really doesn't work well with the show's set up since all of these characters are living in the same town together and so with that in mind you'd expect / possibly even want the storylines / plotlines that this show tells to be more mature / adult and not be child / kid / family friendly.

New then I watched the first eight segments of this show which last no longer then eleven minuets each which means that the total running time of all eight segments combined is at the very least two hours since this show does also follow the same format of alot of animated shows where they have to eleven minuet segment combined into one twenty two minuet episodes and sadly tho I only watched them as eleven minuet segments. Which I do feel oddly works for this show simply just due to how absurd the storylines / plotlines that are in these first eight segments well and truly are.


Now then this show is being listed as a comedy and which means that I have to talk about some the actual jokes that are featured / presented to us in this actual show and well if i'm being well and truly honest here people the jokes that are featured / presented to us in this actual show are pretty / really freaking bad. Since I barely laughed once during all eight of the segments of this show that I actually watched all the way through but with that being said little little kids might find some of the jokes that i've seen so far in this show to be funny and heck maybe there are some of you guys who found this show to be freaking hilarious but I just didn't find this show to be that funny at all / in the slightest bit tho.


Overall while I cannot say that this is a bad show (simply because I don't feel that i've seen more the / than enough episodes in order to make that judgement) I can however say that this is a show that I can see little kids loving but at the same time I can also see die hard animation fans hating this show because it's kind of similar to Teen Titans Go! in some respects but it's different from Teen Titans Go in many other / more respects tho. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this show show thus / so far in this very review and since this is only my first impressions of the show I won't be giving this show a rating just because I don't feel that i've seen more then / than enough episodes in order to give it a really justifiable score / rating.

Now then / than as for where I got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then / than boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I used in this very from Google Images and nowhere else and since I only went to Google Images and nowhere else for the images that I used in this very review. Well then / than I have no choice but to recommend that you guys use Google Images if for some reason that you guys and girls want to use images from this very show that I personally used in this very review since all of the images that I personally found that are from this very / particular show are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high definition.
