    like @Reeko mentioned
    they are putting too many characters nobody cares about

    This is similar to when Street Fighter added tons of new characters now that nobody cars about
    everyone still plays with the same characters, Ken, Ryu, Guile, Chun Li

    I'm actually looking forward to this, but its probably too high concept for the people that just want to see the Avengers f**k s**t up.

    I'm open-minded and will give this a shot.

    I am very surprised how good it was. How in the world did the current Disney/MCU brain trust create something like this?

    I enjoyed it, but every teenager and young adult I've spoken to were like"meh, it was alright".

    It's Marvel for old people. For the record, I thought it was enjoyable with great acting but it seems I'm in the older demographic.

    It was a good show. They were able to take chances since it's a little known property.

    I think this was one of the shows that were in development before Disney shifted focus back away from high volume and trying out new things.

    Yea, the problem they have is people expect one thing from Marvel. The people that want something different generally aren't watching and the others are disappointed or bored if they don't get a typical MCU movie/show.

    As much as I enjoyed this show the MCU will probably have to accept who they're target demographic is and just make things for them. Maybe this show gets another season but after Vision I think the focus will be ground level beat em up action focused stuff like Daredevil and Punisher.
