Hulk was never one of the properties I found all that interesting anyways, so I'm personally pretty happy with what they've done with the character since Avengers 1.
This particular show? I dont know. I havent found it super great or anything, but I have found it to be excellent entertainment.
If we're pegging a show as light-hearted, day-in-the-life of She Hulk...I think its superb. It nails that. Tatiana Maslany has been nothing short of perfect.

I dunno. It's fun and I'm enjoying it, but not in the "I'm watching a super hero show" kinda way. More in the "I'm watching a pointless but lighthearted dramady" kinda way.
15-20 min episodes and they spend the same amount of time on a conversation about dating that Tolkien spent describing a tree. I still have no clue with the central plot of the show is, and there's only two episodes left... but that's what happens when 98% of an episode is about getting over a guy and only the last 15 seconds has anything to do with whatever the point is.
That's not the problem though. Like I said at the start, I'm actually having fun and enjoying all that stuff. I really think the problem is the episodes are so short, there's no time for all that stuff AND actual super hero stuff. I feel like if they took every episode exactly as is, but then added like 5-10 mins to each of her actually fighting as a Hulk and/or progressing the plot... *chef's kiss*, imo.
Really enjoying Disney+, and I'm liking the return to weekly episode watching. Reservation Dogs, She-Hulk, Andor are a few series I'm watching now. The Drop Out and Dopesick are excellent series and The Patient with Steve Carrell will be up next.

Reservation Dogs is my favourite show on TV right now. Gets me in the feels, and makes me laugh out loud often. Reminds me of Northern Exposure in many ways, which was an alltime favourite of mine when I was a kid.

The Patient is actually quite good. It's not all the way there, but I think if it sticks the landing for the end of the season it will be pretty well regarded.

The short episodes kinda drive me crazy. I really like the actor who plays the psychopath though.
Hocus Pocus 2 is another soulless Disney production relying on nostalgia. There is some enjoyable fan service and the skeleton of an interesting coming of age story but the overall story falls flat. Felt like the writers were trying to hit certain plot points at the expense of a coherent story or interesting characters. My biggest issue was the lack of anything spooky. The original was a least scary for kids with the spells and threat of eating children while this one goes full on comic relief with the witches turned into bumbling villains whose defeat is super easy barely an inconvenience. I did however enjoy Doug Jones’ performance and only just learned the original was one of his first roles. 4/10
