Ranking the episodes so far


Re-edit to throw in Episode 6

IMO:
Ep3 - I don't think they'll have a better one.
Ep1 - The series started strong with this one.
Ep6 - Better than I thought it'd be.
Ep5 - Only because I liked it better than 4 and 2.
Ep4 - It was pretty good. I guess.......
Ep2 - This think this one will drop even further as the series goes on.

I like 1, 3, and 4 about the same as they were all entertaining for different reasons. I agree that 2 was pretty bad, though.

They are all about equal, other than the first one, which I thought was terrible. The second episode may have been a bit better than the rest, but only by a bit. The most recent one, episode 4, felt the closest to the comic series, as they always seemed to end on terrible, sad notes.

If forced to rank, I'd probably say

Ep2
Ep4
Ep3
Ep1

Ep4 - Dark & bleak. Felt straight outta the comic

Ep3 - Liked the whodunnit, espionage tone

Ep1 - Just a rehash of TFA but a few good parts here & there

Ep2 - Genuinely don't get the praise/hype for this one. The writing & dialogue was so cringe inducing. Barely made it through the episode.

reply

I agree regarding Ep2.

Episode 4 - loved the horror tone and was so well done
Episode 2 - such a feel-good episode, it's the funniest one so far and seeing Thanos as a good guy was amazing
Episode 3 - Love the murder mystery concept
Episode 1 - Just the first Captain America with roles reversed and a few changes.

I think #1 is the only one worth ranking. Four episodes in and it’s already losing steam.

reply

I'd argue it's gaining steam. Episode 1 was good, but it was basically just a retelling of Captain America The First Avenger. I like the more drastic changes that the rest of the episodes have dealt with.

reply

For me it would go:
Ep. 4
Ep. 3
Ep. 5
Ep. 1
Ep. 2

The reason episode 2 ranks the lowest for me is just because of how goofy it was. I still enjoyed it and I know it's a cartoon, but all the other episodes have at least been a little more serious. However I'm glad it changed up a lot more than episode 1 did. Episode 1 was pretty much just a rehash of The First Avenger but with Peggy instead of Steve.

Oh, really?...

Ep 5. Just because it had Head in a jar Scott Lang
Ep 2. I liked the alternate versions of Nebula and Thanos
Ep 3. Nice tight murder mystery story
Ep 4. This episode is absurdly overrated. I think it is because it has a dark ending, so people think that makes it good.
Ep 1. Boring as hell, but not as bad ad EP 6
Ep 6. horrible to watch. Killmonger is a super genius smarter than Tony stark now? Also, Tony stark makes a robot that can be defeated by a man with a spear? What??? The guy who went to to toe with Thor, knocked out the Hulk, defeated Thanos....Fuck off please.
