Agatha All Along Defies Haters: Episode 1 Rakes in Impressive Viewership Numbers
- Disney+'s 'Agatha All Along' racked up 9.3M views in its first week.
- But the comparisons to 'Loki' and 'The Acolyte' show mixed results.
- Weekly episodes will keep fans engaged all the way until October.
Agatha All Along dropped its first episode on September 18th, and guess what? It pulled in millions of views in just seven days! That’s right, Agatha Harkness is back, and she’s not playing around.
This spin-off from WandaVision has fans super hyped, but there are some haters out there too. According to the critics, the numbers are low compared to other Marvel hits like Loki and Ms Marvel. But honestly, can we just appreciate that Agatha has her own show now?
With a star-studded cast featuring Kathryn Hahn and Aubrey Plaza, plus a sprinkle of magic and mayhem, this series is definitely bringing the drama. Plus, it’s Disney+, so you know the production value is top-notch! Now, let’s dive into the numbers and see how she stacks up against her Marvel fam.
Agatha All Along’s Impressive Start in the MCU
The premiere week for Kathryn Hahn‘s Agatha All Along was a magical affair. According to Deadline, the series’ first episode attracted 9.3 million viewers globally in just seven days. Not too shabby, right?
Disney’s numbers might seem lower compared to Loki and The Acolyte, but let’s not forget how selective Disney is with its stats. With internal data showing solid interest, it looks like Agatha has managed to charm quite a few fans.
Disney+ isn’t super consistent with their reporting, so it’s hard to make direct comparisons. Some shows get a five-day report, while others get a week! But hey, at least we know Agatha is conjuring up a good audience.
Now, let’s take a peek at the competition. The Acolyte kicked off with 11.1 million views in just five days, and Loki has been a powerhouse with 10.9 million views in three days for its second season. Ouch! But hold up—this doesn’t mean Agatha is a flop.
The metrics for streaming are a wild ride, with Disney sometimes only sharing selective data. WandaVision, Agatha’s predecessor, didn’t even get a numbers update, yet we all know it was a hit!
Plus, there’s more to come. With new episodes dropping weekly until October 30, there’s plenty of time for Agatha to work her magic and climb the charts. For now, it looks like Agatha is here to stay, and her audience is ready for more!
Agatha All Along Episode 3 Confirms This Major Character Does Exist in the MCU
So, the latest episode of Agatha All Along just dropped some big news: Mephisto is officially part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This is huge because Mephisto, a major villain in the comics, usually goes up against Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch.
Since Phase 4 dropped, the MCU’s been all about that magic. WandaVision showed us Wanda leveling up as the Scarlet Witch and introduced Agatha. Then Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness teased more magic with the character Clea.
Fans were stoked with theories about Mephisto during WandaVision, thinking he would be the main villain, but it turned out to be Agatha instead. A lot of people were disappointed he wasn’t mentioned at all. Now, though, Agatha All Along is finally paying off that hype!
In episode 3, Agatha’s coven mentions that someone might be an “agent of Mephisto,” confirming he exists in the MCU. This hints that he could be using desperate magic users to do his dirty work on Earth. Who knows? One of the characters in Agatha All Along might be working for him!
Agatha All Along is currently streaming on Disney+.
