This COULD HAVE been the best Marvel show on Disney+.
It really could've taken WAY more risks than the cinematic universe stuff, and definitely more than the previous shows. You'd think animation + the title implying ANYTHING can happen... literally the comics' What If combined with the MCU and added creativity... right? Nope.
Instead, this is so nothing-y that it's pointless. Think vanilla, and this is somehow even less versatile than that. The animation is high quality but somehow... uninspiring, like it's a design by committee... which, I guess these are even more evidently now.
This is like fanfic but not even as different as those dare to be usually. 4 episodes and it's been borderline alright stuff, not a single outstanding thing.
And if my subjective opinion makes me a "hater" because I don't guzzle down every piece of Marvel content like a mindless drone... then, guess I am.
Maybe it gets incredible. Who knows. I'm hoping :)
