Thought I'd post the Dork Videos I referenced.
Emergency Awesome. I got into this dude during GoT. He decodes dork into layman's terms well. New Rockstars. They are far more dorky. And they have some livestream stuff that must be the mountain top of dork, but these videos, they've filtered out a bunch of the worst of the dork. Skip their in-video ads. |

This show is far from shallow so far for anybody actually paying attention.

So now we’ve moved into the late 60s/early 70s era of sitcoms.

Man. Thank goodness for the dork videos that can decode all this stuff.
There are DEEEP Cuts in this thing that need chased down. I’m really enjoying this. Although it would be a different experience without dork videos.
Spoiler!

I'm still watching.. but man, this is a slug 3 episodes in... Not sure I like having to watch a 15 minute breakdown video to understand WTF is going on in a 22 minute episode...

It finally started to get rolling with episode 3. Everything that I thought I had figured out was pretty much wrong.

I usually wait for 3 episodes to binge too, because by the 4th it'll be shitty throughout if it isn't engaging from the start

WandaVision was supposed to be the third MCU show released on Disney+, iirc. I wonder how we would be watching it right now if it had gone like that, if these deep references would be making more sense. I still believe it when they say this show is setting up everything that will happen in Phase 4 and 5, but man you have to be well versed to follow everything that happens.

After reading your post, I tried to figure out if dork videos weren't around if I'd still be in. I think they've done enough to set up the weird and creepy scenes to want to know what's going on. I think if dork videos don't exist, you have to assume YouTube and the infrastructure and cultures that created it are also out of the picture. I think with a little less ADD in the world, this is probably better received. I concluded that I'd be in even without dork videos. I just am not patient enough to wait for the squeeze. So dork videos it is. Probably a more enjoyable watch either binged or without the dork videos, but I gotta know. |

1. Vision is dead. 2. Wanda can alter reality (at least to the extent that she ****ed with the Avengers less Hawkeye in Ultron). 3. Wanted got dusted between Infinity War and Endgame. The radio scene was in the trailer so it probably isn't that time, because if she was dusted nobody would ask her "who's doing this to you?" 4. Multiverses probably exist because Endgame. 5. Wanda's formative years were ****ed. From just the show a perceptive audience can conclude (I'll put it all in spoilers in case I forget which episode it all came from):
Spoiler!
There isn't a TON of extra stuff the dork videos are providing. There are some theories that may be true and some conclusions we can draw that I missed. Plus correlations from the comics I'd have no idea about.
Spoiler!
It's asking a lot of the audience, but I don't think it's unreasonable. |

It seems, purely my speculation, that Wanda is fully cognizant, or at least functionally cognizant, of what's going on. I don't think it's imposed on her. She's managing the whole thing.
Every time there's a glitch and reset, it's when Vision appears on the verge of epiphany [the accelerated pregnancy, the beekeeper]. When the boss was choking, the wife was asking Wanda to 'STOP IT!!' not the boss being a prankster like it originally appeared. Now it remains that there appears to be some concerted effort to shield Wanda from something, some knowledge. That's why Agnes is there. That's why her and Herb were so nervous. Maybe she's being convinced to maintain this charade by a bigger force.
