I actually watch a lot of Marvel(it’s a guilty pleasure. I do annoy some friends with my critiques, though). Disney has been trying to diversify the MCU into a variety of genres, and this is their biggest foray into sitcoms. It doesn’t really push the universe forward. It’s primarily just filler and cheap laughs(nothing more feminist than making your “feminist” show filler for the rest of your programs). It could pretty easily be watched alone without any of the other shows or movies. I think we’re probably going to see more stuff like that from Marvel as they start filling out the entire universe. They want to attract as many different audiences as possible, then they’ll throw “heroes” together in movies to attempt to boost box office revenues. I think of the shows as a form of advertising that also makes profit in and of itself.
