The first reactions for Marvel’s Agatha are in, and per the norm for this type of marketing, the reviews are overwhelmingly positive.
Reviewers were given the first four episodes to watch ahead of tomorrow’s two-episode premiere, and they gush on social media about the series. Check out the reaction below.
Update: The first fan reactions have also hit Rotten Tomatoes, and they are the fourth lowest of the MCU.
The Marvel series follows the infamous Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) who finds herself down and out of power after a suspicious goth Teen (Joe Locke) helps break her free from a distorted spell. Her interest is piqued when he begs her to take him on the legendary Witches’ Road, a magical gauntlet of trials that, if survived, rewards a witch with what they’re missing. Together, Agatha and this mysterious Teen pull together a desperate coven, and set off down, down, down The Road…
The series also stars Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, Maria Dizzia, Paul Adelstein, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Okwui Okpokwasili, Debra Jo Rupp, Patti LuPone, and Aubrey Plaza.
What are the reactions to Marvel’s Agatha?
#AgathaAllAlong is the PERFECT show for the spooky season and filled with BIG WITCH ENERGY. Kathryn Hahn is iconic as ever and delivers a deliciously devious and spellbinding performance. Joe Locke is a scene stealer. This is the most fun you’ll have feasting on a show this year. pic.twitter.com/jieZUrWWIU

Agatha All Along is absolutely batsh*t crazy in all the right kinds of ways.

Kathryn Hahn is a force, camping it up as Agatha Harkness like we all knew she would. The rest of the cast is also divine, and Joe Locke is a gem.
Vivid, outlandish and brilliant. #AgathaAllAlong🔮 pic.twitter.com/UZFwaD1AXO
The first 4 #AgathaAllAlong eps are a strong sequel to WANDAVISION as they have their own identity.

The songs are great. Kathryn Hahn & Aubrey Plaza's dynamic is electric. Debra Jo Rupp brings the laughs, but this is the scariest MCU project to date.

#AgathaAllAlong is a crazy, wicked, fun, mystery filled journey that also has some actually terrifying scares. Wasn't too excited, but became a total fan after watching. Compared to tother Disney+ shows, It actually feels like TV in both writing and pacing. Can't wait for more! pic.twitter.com/AEJLO4RmrP

After four eps of #AgathaAllAlong, it's clear this #WandaVision spin-off keeps the mystery alive casting a new BEWITCHING spell. Kathryn Hahn is PERFECTION, embracing every wicked moment. The musical elements don’t just enhance—they ENCHANT. This is the MAGIC the #MCU needs. pic.twitter.com/ta9APo0ro4

If there was ever a character that deserved her own spin-off series, it’s Agatha Harkness. Kathryn Hahn is better than ever, thriving as she takes center stage. As for Joe Locke, he is a total scene stealer and will no doubt become a new @Marvel fan favorite. #AgathaAllAlong 💜✨ pic.twitter.com/eH5sJxpKSl

Watched the first 4 episodes of #AgathaAllAlong. It's okay. After a fun start, it slows. It doesn't take itself or its characters seriously and neither should audiences. Joe Locke's mystery character is the only likeable one but has to play the Marvel mystery marketing gimmick… pic.twitter.com/agFTZaWCVE

I had a lot of concerns heading into #AgathaAllAlong, but I am thrilled to report that this witch has quite enjoyed what she's seen so far. I'm having a ton of fun theorizing already, and I really hope it sticks the landing! pic.twitter.com/rozbzcsOjW

The first 4 episodes were a little slow… I hope they picked up more.. and it has a Hocus Pocus vibe… pic.twitter.com/fazV1r7cBr
🔮 Watched the first four episodes of #AgathaAllAlong. The series mixes elements like drama, horror, and comedy, but seems unsure of what it wants to be. That said, when it dives into horror, that's when it truly shines! 👻 Kathryn Hahn is fantastic as Agatha, and her character… pic.twitter.com/JuPq06K2V2

#AgathaAllAlong is camp and Katharine Hahn sells it in every.single.scene. It’s funny, sexy and Aubrey Plaza was made to be a Marvel witch. pic.twitter.com/GH5wbwU2I7

The first 4 episodes of #AgathaAllAlong strikes a balance between having fun doing its own thing and using witchcraft & the occult as a vehicle to haunt. The needle drops are fitting, and the original songs are perfect for a Halloween playlist. Can’t wait to see the rest of it. pic.twitter.com/k78yZVFILH
