If you like the Hawkeye series, and you're interested in reading some funny books, go to your local comic store and pick up some trade paperbacks.
The 2012-2015 series by Matt Fraction and David Aja is uniformly excellent, and the 2016-2018 series by Kelly Thompson and Leonardo Romero really fleshes out Kate Bishop as a character.

First episode was fun. I'm glad they waited on Steinfeld's availability, she's perfect as Kate.
Also, I feel just like Hawkeye whenever my girlfriend makes me watch a musical. My god.

The musical was hilarious in its cringeness and inaccuracies.

The musical was hilarious in its cringeness and inaccuracies. It had to have an Avenger as a consultant though. How else would they know about Caps catchphrase being "I can do this all day"? Probably Ant Man which is why he was added to the Battle of New York. He could claim he was there and was just tiny. Edit. I guess it could have been something Cap threw in during his USO shows. I like my answer better.

Thoughts on ep 1 {Spoiler}{Spoiler}Hmm...titles at the front, not at the end. Kind of like Black Widow. Guess it's the new norm at Marvel now.
Nice touch with the Avengers musical giving Clint a bad case of PTSD when 'Natasha' turned up. Also, the play makes use of some artistic licence/revisionist history in adding Ant-Man to the battle.
I thought Kate would have been discovered when she found Simon Callow's character dead, but she got away. Maybe later episodes will reveal the CCTV caught her and that'll leave her with more trouble.
Anyone have a guess as to what the watch means just yet?
The fight scenes were well choreographed and quite brutal for an intergender clash.

What's funny is Ant-Man TECHNICALLY was there, but only because of time travel craziness

I REALLY enjoyed the first two episodes. Rennet getting time to work with the character, and Hailee Steinfeld is just delightful in everything she does. Still mad she didn’t get the Oscar for True Grit 🤬

I enjoyed the first 2 episodes, bro. Starting off strong, bro.
I want to see more Avengers hang out with the LARPers. With how he's written, Thor would get into it big time.

I'm surprised at the positive reactions here. I thought this was the most boring thing they've done.

Even with Falcon and Winter Soldier I thought it was just kinda okay and I'd never rewatch it. This was bad to the point that I was annoyed with it and it felt like a chkore. I didn't even finish the second episode. And I've watched EVERYTHING MCU except having to tap out after two episodes of Inhumans.

Guaranteed whoever sent the Tracksuit Mafia (and their boss) after that watch is going to be revealed in the credits scene at the end of the season finale. {Spoiler}December 17…No Way Home…Matt Murdock.
December 22…Hawkeye Episode 6…Wilson Fisk.
It’s time.

Poor Jolt the dog, can’t even get listed in the credits. I definitely need more Lucky.

Thought it was a bit ropey to be honest. Really contrived, some bad acting and had to put subtitles on to work out what was being said. Just felt really flat.

Well, episode 2 kind of sucked. {Spoiler}Way too much talking, and the Larp stuff was cringe and schmaltzy, whatever was the point in it if it was going to be so easily resolved with no conflict? I like Clint's conversation with the family, but would rather see more of his Endgame PTSD play out like in episode one. The writing is also so up itself with the red herrings...you just know it's gonna be Kate's mom behind the murder, not just of her fiance's father, but probably Kate's actual dad too
