TLDR; Marvel is moving away from limited series and moving to more multiple-season shows.

I disagree with both FatWS and She-Hulk. FatWS really felt like it focused on a different side character or tackled something big each episode and wouldn't have worked as a movie format.

She-Hulk just made the plot secondary. That's pretty common for episodic shows. Probably the most well know to do it like that is Doctor Who, where the main plot is hinted at but rarely the focus.

FatWS felt so unfocused to me. For example they make a HUGE deal out of Bucky's therapist and him being required to go to therapy regularly in eps 1 and 2 and getting arrested in Louisiana for being a no-show for his therapy appointment.

Then the rest of the show is jet-setting around the world without any consequences or need to get back to the US for any reason. Bucky sends the therapist a gift bag and note at the end but otherwise we never see her or her office again. Are there consequences for him leaving the county? Did her need her permission? Did he violate his court order? Who knows because they never mentioned it again.

It's been a minute since I watched it. But didn't Sam vouch for him and get permission? I thought that ended up being a huge part of his therapy for Bucky to let literally anybody in, so they let him go.
