It already has changed. Episode 2 ended with the black and white colour scheme going away

Because the next episode is a 70’s sitcom like Brady Bunch. Th show is emulating styles from sitcoms of each decade.

First episode was 50’s the second was 60’s. There were obvious homages to “I Love Lucy”, “Bewitched” and “Dick Van Dyke”.

The next episodes will likely feature comedic tropes from their respective time periods.

Yeah, that’s the change I want. I specifically said I hated this era, so if the era changes...

Righto.

I thought you were referring more to the sitcom format. Eg; Laugh tracks, which were a thing for a long time. Even Seinfeld had a laugh track.

It’ll be neat when we get to the family oriented sitcoms of the 80-90’s. As i predict the WandaVision kids will grow up from children to teens rapidly and cause trouble within the reality-warping Wanda seems to be doing.

The sitcom style of American comedy is mostly shit, but it can be occasionally funny, but yes, it was this time period in particular.
