WandaVision is wild, wacky and weirdly compelling viewing. Of course, familiarity with American sitcoms past will aid your enjoyment, but it’s by no means essential. I thought my 10 and 13-year-old might struggle, but they loved it, lapping up all three episodes available for us to view and desperate to know when we can watch the rest of the nine-part series (after this week’s opening double bill, it’s a new instalment every Friday night a la
The Mandalorian). At first, I wondered why, then I remembered how successful
The Flintstones was, transferring the traditions of the 1950s sitcom to a new format and a new generation.
