Disney Plus hasn’t exactly been hitting home runs with its shows lately. So when I heard about Agatha All Along, a spin-off of a spin-off, my immediate reaction was, “Nobody asked for this”.
I went in ready to hate it, prepared to find every flaw and rant about yet another Marvel misfire. But as it turns out, I was dead wrong. Humbled, even. Agatha All Along surprised me, and I’m here to share my thoughts and reactions, episode by episode.
Episode 1-2: “That’s A Strong Opening”
Right from the start, Agatha All Along gives a satisfying nod to WandaVision. It’s subtly mind-bending, and each character introduction is a blast. Agatha herself is charismatic and delightfully arrogant, stealing every scene. Billy also brings his own cool factor, and I found myself quickly invested in each character.
Episode 3-6: “Are We Getting Repetitive Here?”
As the witches’ coven reached the infamous Witches’ Road, I started bracing myself for the show to get repetitive. I expected a formulaic journey—like an adventure straight out of Dora the Explorer—where the group faces trial after trial as they inch toward the end of the road. I was wrong, but the story didn’t feel much more exciting than that, either.
I do appreciate the character deaths here, though. They raised the stakes and added some real consequences, even if they didn’t leave a huge impact.
Episode 7: “PEAK CINEMATIC MASTERPIECE”
Okay, let’s talk about Lilia Caldera—she owned this episode. As the divination witch, Lilia could see the future, but in the most mind-bending way possible: she experienced time out of order. It’s like she’s time-traveling, but her consciousness was glitching between moments, and it’s wild.
At first, she’s totally lost, popping up in different points in time like a glitchy, magical nightmare. But then—hold onto your seat—the loop completed, and suddenly, everything clicked in the most satisfying way. You can just tell that writing this episode must’ve been a beast, but they absolutely nailed it.
Remember that trippy scene in Loki Season 2 where he kept jumping around in time? Yeah, it’s kinda like that… but way better. The climax? Heart-wrenching, intense, cinematic perfection. I’m talking top-tier, award-worthy stuff. Honestly, this episode is the absolute best thing Disney Plus has ever produced. Pure brilliance.
Episode 8-9: “HOLY @#$%…”
It gets even better. The final two episodes? Absolutely packed with jaw-dropping revelations. Now, usually when I write a review, I dive into spoilers without hesitation, but for this one, I’m holding back. I want you to experience it for yourself.
Let me just say this: the twists? They’re insane. All of them. The moment those revelations hit, you’ll realize the clues were scattered everywhere—subtly foreshadowed, hidden in plain sight. It’s a masterclass in storytelling. I won’t spoil anything, but let’s just say the plot twists are disturbing, unexpected, and downright mind-bending.
Trust me, you won’t see any of it coming.
Let’s Talk About The Elephant In The Room
There’s been a rumor floating around online that Marvel fanboys somehow “hate” female-led projects. With titles like Black Widow, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, She-Hulk, Echo, Ms. Marvel, and The Marvels all facing mixed reactions, some might think it’s a trend. But honestly? It’s a classic case of confirmation bias.
Let’s get real—male-led projects can tank too. Just look at Thor: Love and Thunder, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and Secret Invasion. Despite being male-centric, all of these received major backlash.
The truth is, shows like WandaVision and Agatha All Along prove that audiences don’t care about the gender of the lead. What they care about is whether the story is good. It’s really that simple. People just want solid storytelling, not a political statement.
With that said, I’m wrapping up this review with a solid 9/10 for Agatha All Along. It’s ‘marvelous’ and ‘magical’—in every sense of the word.
