That’s too bad, it was one of my favorite Marvel shows.

Don’t you know? It doesn’t matter if it is critically acclaimed, or even marginally profitable. If it doesn’t bring in 100% pure profit it’s absolutely useless to them. Who cares about just making 10% profit?

I'm surprised that people liked the show. Even though three or so episodes were enjoyable, the show as a whole was pretty bad, but I've heard at least a couple other people say they loved the show.
I do think it was a shame the show got cancelled though. Comics fans said the character was fantastic in the comics so I was hoping they'd retool the show and fix what went wrong in the second season, rather than giving up altogether.

I didn’t think it was bad at all. I think some people just didn’t like the humor. I enjoyed the whole season. To me, the storytelling was solid: the pacing was good, charachters were fleshed out with solid motivations, and the humor was topical and stemmed from the charachters motivations. I see how it can feel out of place from the rest of disneys marvel, but, tbh, I feel like it was just a lot of misogyny. It was girl humor so it was deemed lesser, silly, not as important as the rest of the mcu.

Hahaha
Jokes aside I do hope that we get more She-Hulk in the future, perhaps as part of a cameo and team up, written by somebody else

I saw the trailer where she Hulk was twerking. Was enough to know the show was not for me.
Shows that are just gender swapped are lazy and boring
realcaseyrollins@narwhal.city 10 months ago
I mean its not gender swapping, she's a separate character in both the comics and the show

$25 million per episode is just banana pants bonkers for a TV show, regardless of the franchise. I don’t know how they calculate LTV, but most users are going to be on the $10 ad supported plan. That means the show would have to draw over 2 million households and get them to subscribe for a year to break even.
No wonder streaming services are losing money hand over fist.
