‘Agatha All Along’ Puts the MCU Under Kathryn Hahn’s Kooky, Captivating Spell: TV Review
With the 'WandaVision' spinoff 'Agatha All Along,' Kathryn Hahn puts the MCU under her spell.
Kathryn Hahn ’s title character, a witch who survived Salem only to run afoul of Elizabeth Olsen’s grief-stricken Wanda Maximoff in Marvel Studios’ TV debut “WandaVision,” has never even headlined a comic book of her own. Agatha’s mission is straightforward, and if the worldbuilding around MCU witchcraft feels slapdash or hand-waved, that’s because it’s clearly subordinate to a greater goal: assembling a cast and staging setpieces to complement an energy engaging enough to build a show around. The first stopping point on the Road is a Nancy Meyers fantasy that turns into a wine-fueled, tastefully neutral house of horrors, and when a sinkhole starts to claim Rupp’s handbag, she snaps, “This is from Talbot’s, and you can’t have it!” The mood is more referential and camp-adjacent than its franchise peers.
