So far, so meh!
A programme that instantly throws you into the thick of it, is probably more welcome than another origins story done badly in the comic world genre. We know the main players antagonists and protagonists (twists aside) so it can be forgiven for jumping straight in.
What doesn't slip through so easily is the evolution of the problem and why it now only is one when, basis the dating of the captain marvel origins, as far as threats go this should have been the easiest one to see or grasp.
Unfortunately there was barely enough in the first episode to get you hooked, so you are left after the first show relying purely on good faith that the hook of SLJ and his Fury will mean the story gets bigger and better. Not enough to get excited about, but just enough to tune into next weeks offering. If it doesn't deliver then, expect to see viewing figures diminish, with even the die-hard MCUers beginning to believe that GOTG3 was an outlier and the decline in quality is still ongoing.
