Featured reviews
This is truly bottom of the barrel stuff. Nobody asked for this show but it was shoved on us hapless souls anyway.
Walters came across as obnoxious, vacuous and full of herself. There was no effort made at all towards character development in the first episode which looks like a poorly crafted music video from the 90s.
The first episode obviously serves as a placeholder for more shlock. This show is trying to be sex and the city with a pg13 rating and female Shrek.
Marvel's idea of setting up strong female characters with exposition dumps instead of focusing on having them go through a journey to realize their true potential.
Mediocre shows like Miss Marvel and now She Hulk which should in fact be called 'The Abomination' or She Shrek: Attorney at Yawn.. should just not be allowed to see daylight.
At the end of the first episode I could feel the bile at the back of my throat and a haunting realization that Marvel has officially run out of ideas.
So its basically running on fumes now. The way she gains her powers is a joke and the way she 'overcomes' the cons of being a Hulk is so laughable and indigestible that I have been having digestion pills since I saw the episode today.
This show is bad. Really really bad. Wonder woman 1984 times 2 bad.

Look, all the people giving the show 1 star reviews, because of some comment about cat calling in the first episode, don't really get to the heart of the problem. Can we please just get one of the terrible Marvel shows with a straight white male lead, so we can shut up about people hating women or people with dark skin?
The show isn't funny, it's not exciting, it's not emotional, it doesn't seem to have a useful message, so what's left at that point. Are there so many people out there, that can watch a boring unfunny show, just because it so amazing to have a female feminist superhero on screen?
The 4th wall breaking seems completely out of place and isn't used for anything other than repetitive exposition, so it just comes off as cringy.
Tatiana Maslany is a great actress and she's not unlikable in this show, she just doesn't have much to work with. If the best the writers can come up with is a joke about her falling off a chair, then you could have put Meryl Streep in the lead an still not have anything to show for it.
Honestly Marvel, hand the TV shows back to the people who did the Netflix shows. Daredevil, The Punisher and Jessica Jones were very good for the most part, and you're shooting yourself in the foot if you continue to go down the path of the Disney era shows, almost all of which have been mediocre at best.

I enjoyed She-Hulk more than I thought I would. I know the reviews have been mixed and most of the negative reviews all say the same thing and that's how is she stronger and better than the original Hulk already and that she comes off as unlikable. I agree with that to a point but I still think the show is pretty entertaining. Mark Ruffalo is as terrific as always. He's not only a great Hulk/Bruce Banner but he's just a flat out great actor in just about everything he does. Tatiana Maslany does a good job as She-Hulk but I agree they need to tone down that she's better than Hulk at everything. They have a phenomenal cast overall with those two, Charlie Cox, Benedict Wong, Tim Roth & Jameela Jamil who are all great actors doing a great job as usual. Bottom line is I had a lot of fun watching it and would recommend it to any fan of the MCU.
I have to admit I'm a huge fan of Marvel so I always look forward to everything they do and so She-Hulk: Attorney at Law was no different. It's definitely the worst of all the Marvel shows (well at least this or Echo) but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy it. It's different from the other Marvel shows and movies as this is a comedy but that doesn't make it bad, just different. Even though it's my least favorite but that's only because I love all the other shows so much. I don't understand some of these negative reviews. What did you expect and not get? Did you not watch the trailers or read the reviews? You knew it was a comedy going in. Tatiana Maslany does a great job as She-Hulk and Jennifer Walters. It wouldn't be the same with another actress. I also loved all the cameos from Hulk, Daredevil, Wong, Abomination, etc. Don't let the negative reviews deter you from watching this, if you're a Marvel fan then watch this.
Marvel was once an unstoppable juggernaut of quality, with entertaining stories and yes even some thought provoking asides. But after 2019 it's like a totally different team is running things.
Marvel is just milking money and throwing content onto the screen with barely any thought or coherent structure.
I hope the show improves because there's talent here (especially Tatiana Maslany) but this show is failing its star and more importantly failing its audience.
But on a larger scale Marvel needs to course correct... and quickly, before all the trust and goodwill they earned is squandered.

- TriviaAlthough each transformation from Jennifer Walters to She-Hulk and back is created using CGI, Malia Arrayah plays She-Hulk on-set for having reference of She-Hulk size (her face is replaced by the Tatiana Maslany using CGI). Maslany is 5' 4" (1,63 m) tall, while Arrayah is 6' 5¼" (1,96 m) tall.
- GoofsIn two of the first three episodes, in the courtroom they show the defendant seated at the table closest to the jury box. In American courts, the defendant is always seated AWAY from the jury, in the interests of safety. (This gives the bailiff more time to react should the defendant attack the jury.)
- Crazy creditsThe closing credits are a sequence of courtroom sketches, which vary depending on the episode.
