Ironheart

The story is shallow... nothing [in the episode you are watching] compels you to want to watch the next episode. So I obliged them and stopped watching after episode 3 (or it might have been 2). Very forgettable!

I didn't expect much from this show in the first place because these days, writers are terrible. The so-called progressives in Hollywood are so convinced of their white superiority that they confidently wrote a story where a girl genius can only be a criminal because of the color of her skin-the hard bigotry of low expectations. Only an actual racist can think they have it better than someone due to the color of their skin. Liberals are the actual racists on the planet because they actually believe they're inherently better. These actors deserve better representation. Unfortunately, this is how Hollywood sees them.

It is very clear that they held back in the final two episodes for some bigger story in the future, but this kinda hurt my overall enjoyment, dropping it from a 7 (and possible 8) to a 6. Yes, don't reveal everything right away if the story isn't finished, but there should've been way more destruction from the fights. And the “heart” part of Ironheart ended up being only a sob story (which a teared up for very briefly). But when do we get to love the hero for her current actions rather than her past? Based on the ending, never. Also, the reveal of the main villain was meh. Someone like him should really send chills down your spine, both in excitement and for fear of what's to come for MCU heroes. But just like the protagonist, I felt nothing. Maybe that's the point? Deception? Anyway, I hope this means more X-Men. Haven't checked out the MCU Phase list since Phase 2, so I genuinely don't know what's to come.
