Agatha All Along: New Marvel Series Receives Rave Reviews

The eagerly anticipated new television series, “Agatha All Along,” featuring Kathryn Hahn, has debuted to excellent reviews. The supernatural show has been praised as both “perfect” and “spellbinding.” Hahn reprises her role as Agatha Harkness, a character she previously portrayed in the acclaimed series “WandaVision” in 2021.

Agatha All Along follows Harkness as she embarks on the ‘Witches’ Road trials’ in an attempt to reclaim her lost powers. This nine-episode series marks Marvel’s first release since “Echo” earlier in the year. Initial reactions from the first four episodes have been overwhelmingly positive. Michael Patterson from Bam Smack Pow highlighted Hahn’s performance as “a force,” while Joseph Deckelmeier described the series as a “perfect follow-up to WandaVision” with influences from classic films such as “Hocus Pocus” and “The Wizard of Oz.”

The series was announced back in November 2021 but underwent several title changes before settling on “Agatha All Along,” a nod to a song featured in WandaVision, unveiling Hahn’s character as a formidable villain. The announcement followed a series of intriguing logo and title revelations which included “House of Harkness,” “Darkhold Diaries,” and “Coven of Chaos.”

In “Agatha All Along,” Hahn is joined by an ensemble cast including Aubrey Plaza and Joe Locke, who have also received praise for their performances. Critics have hailed the series for its vivid storytelling and the enchanting blend of musical elements. Justin Lawrence commented that “the musical elements don’t just enhance—they enchant.”

As the series launches on Disney+, fans and critics alike are keenly watching to see if the new series will recreate the magic of its predecessor and continue to expand on the mystique of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel Studios looks to invigorate its television offerings, as “Agatha All Along” is poised to capture the audience’s imagination with its blend of horror and comedy, anchored by Hahn’s captivating performance.
