      I do assume we’ll have an overlong magic-blob-laser fight in the finale, though.

    That episode was far too short.

    I have lots of positive things to say, but really I just want more.

      100%

      I am thoroughly enjoying this series so far, but I really think the 3rd and 4th episodes felt too short.

    Nice idea to have them break Alice’ family curse. And the idea of hiding a protection spell in a popular song is a fivehead move. Schaeffer’s team is really good at world building (judgingly looking at you, DS2 team).

    To see the witches bond over their “battle scars” and trauma is great, especially with Jen being the kind of witch - a midwife - who embodies real-life women who were accused of witchcraft.

    So what I am getting of this is that Rio was involved in taking away Nicholas from Agatha? Or something worse?

    Her telling Agatha “that boy isn’t yours” could have some unintended consequences… because that boy surely is Billy lol

    Plot in any given episode seems kind of pro-forma, but the mood and set design and character work are all very nice. You see them being closer in spite of themselves and yet still building from a shaky foundation.

    My comic experience is Limited to the 90s X-Books and Punisher (I got better) that I read as a teen, so this is a corner of Marvel I know very little about, and it’s a fun trip. I guess Eric Foreman’s mom is really a comic character (or at least as named by Agatha?), so I guess we’ll see her again one way or another before the season ends.

      Wait, who is Eric Foreman’s mum? Is that a reference I don’t get?

        Debra Jo Rupp played Mrs. Hart. She was also Kitty Foreman, the mom on That 70s Show.

          Ah, you mean Sharon! If she turns out to be a comic character, that would be quite a plot twist.
