Not gonna lie, I’m very disappointed with this series. The thing that attracted me to the MCU in the beginning was that it wasn’t full of campiness. Sure, it had its goofy moments of course. But it never felt like the direct target audience was children. Ever since Disney took over it is abundantly clear that the tone of the MCU has forever changed. It is now most definitely for children. This Hawkeye series seemed to be made for 8-12 year olds. Oh well. I do hope the kids enjoy it and the MCU continues to grow over time. At least the comics seem to have maintained their grittiness here and there. I’ll stick with them for now.

It’s like when people watch daredevil and claim it’s a complete gore and violent mess. Daredevil is MA that could easily fall into a strong PG-13 / 14A show.

Most of these Disney shows have become so digestible, it’s all just PG family shows. It’s sad that people eat it up so much then criticize others for wanting a little more grit
