Genre: Fantasy/ Adventure/ Action
Kathryn Hahn, who portrays Agatha, loved getting to the bottom of what lay beneath Agatha's sarcasm and big mouth. And that combination is exactly what you get in “Agatha All Along”: a delightful witch who says what she thinks, but as the season progesses she peels off some layers.
Hahn’s movements and facial expressions are a joy to watch. But once she is no longer alone its delightful to see the actress carry the dramatic edge as well.
The pace is slow. Once The Road has emerged (not me constantly singing that song in my head ever since), it also becomes clear that the coven have several so-called trials to overcome and thus, as a viewer, you have a long journey ahead of you. The acting is fantastic. At first, the women cannot stand each other, but still have to work together. In the process they help each other see where their personal strengths lie.
You get sucked into the coven as if you were part of it yourself and I’m so happy this series focuses on female empowerment.
“Agatha All Along” was very well-received and each episode gets high ratings, Not below a 7.3. But my favorite episode, and I’m in the majority here, was episode 7: Death’s Hand in Mine. That episode was perfection.
The end of the series hints to a second season, which I wouldn’t be mad about. But “Agatha All Along” is a fantastic series I’m glad Marvel decided to make.
