Wandavision Sitcom Decades

For sitcom and speculative fiction lovers such as myself WandaVision is a dream.

Wandavision sitcom decades. To spare you a pedantic rant lines between the decades have always been blurry. Not only is WandaVision honoring certain decades in the same way That 70s Show approached its setting but the Disney series is also honoring popular sitcoms. WandaVision is the first TV series produced by Marvel Studios to debut on Disney and so far its been one half deeply-committed sitcom homage one half vaguely frightening puzzle-box mystery.

Wandas and Visions clothing is reminiscent of the classic sitcoms time period. As weve seen from all the trailers and teasers WandaVision jumps from decade to decade fully immersing itself in the world of sitcoms from the 1950s okay really the early 1960s to the. Well WandaVision episode 4 picks up that baton and runs with it revealing a much bigger picture literally and figuratively of why the series faux sitcom format is what it is.

Created by writer Jac Schaeffer the upcoming Marvel movie Black Widow and directed by Matt Shakman Game of Thrones WandaVision gets its sitcom details just right particularly when it. The series is clearly crafted with TV film and sci-fi fanatics in mind as well as dedicated Marvel fans.

The first episode plays its conceit of classic sitcom homage almost entirely straight. WandaVision s trailer has a scene with an exact replica of the house in Family Ties including a similar staircase chairs and windows. WandaVision in at least its first two episodes seems more sincere than that.

WandaVisions 1970s Setting Sitcom Influences Wanda with long straight hair and psychedelic top from the WandaVision promotional clip are dead giveaways for the 70s. Wanda and Vision are seemingly trapped in a sitcom-like environment while living in Westview. WandaVision is difficult to review because almost anything one says is a spoiler.

Before WandaVision there was Agent Carter and it was Marvels best show. This is not so good as when one hears the summary and guesses what the show might be about assuming one is not. As it turns out.
