The Legends Of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Michelle, Consultant Chris and show Producer Director SP discuss the Netflix series Punisher finale Season 2. The Agents debrief you on National Pi Day, question what the point of season 2 was, if the season rated higher or lower than Iron Fist season 2. How the agents watched the season, who the worst therapist ever is, how the plot lines fell short, SP loses count on too many villains, did the show portray a US senator from New York correctly, if John Pilgrim’s sons were better off without him, Karen’s single episode appearance just to blow her shoes off, SP’s list of top 10 The Punisher season 2 fights, and what was off about the season’s tribune to Stan Lee.

#Wandavision. Mando is enjoyable and Grogu is super cute, but I don’t find it very exciting for the most part.

Wandavision is great, but feel like Mandalorian gave me more awesome moments. To be fair, Mando had 2 seasons are lower expectations going in to accomplish it so it's not exactly apples to apples, more like frog eggs to breakfast for dinner.

Regarding the Bohner moment, I am an ‘80s child so, to quote Cap, I understood that reference. #WandaVision
