"Because Jennifer Walters is inarguably correct in that weddings are always inconveniently timed, I had to pass She-Hulk reviews back to the incomparable Amelia Emberwing for the finale. But as for my thoughts on the full season, She-Hulk marks the MCU's successful first foray into sitcom territory. A show like this doesn't work without a leading lady that's both hilarious and endearing, and Tatiana Maslany delivers in spades. This sitcom experiment isn't without its fumbles: 30 minutes often didn't feel like enough to make each episode feel special in its own right, and I can't help but feel like it would've been better served by dropping two or three episodes at a time. But the pros far outweigh the cons; it managed to strike its own unique, cartoon-ish tone while roping in the rest of the MCU in exciting ways and giving Jen the sometimes unpredictable journey she deserved." -- Alex Stedman, Entertainment Reviews Editor
That freshness isn’t exclusive to its unabashed approach to Jen’s sex life, either. She-Hulk: Attorney At Law takes toxic masculinity to task in a way that’s never been seen in this franchise or in much of mainstream superhero media as a whole. It’s easy to roll your eyes at that and say that there are plenty of other genres already taking swings on the toxic masculinity front, but that’s kind of the point. The sheer volume of men young and old who religiously watch the MCU can’t be downplayed, and She-Hulk squared its shoulders and screamed from the rooftops that “boys will not be boys! Boys will be held accountable for their actions!” That’s a big deal for a franchise with as much mass appeal as the MCU, which has previously chosen to be what they perceived to be the most “widely accessible.” But being “widely accessible” has historically translated to “accessible to men.” I love a Captain America flick as much as the next person, and all kinds of superheroes are for all kinds of people, but it’s thrilling to see a wider demographic being reached out to.
She-Hulk: Attorney At Law was a massive success. It had a little bit of a bobble on the dismount, but it stuck the landing all the same. Here’s hoping we see way more of Jennifer Walters in the MCU to come. Given her relationship with Matt Murdock, Daredevil: Born Again isn’t off the table, and we’ll continue to hold out hope for an A-Force movie until cinema stops existing.

It’s hard to bring something truly fresh to the table over a decade into a franchise, but She-Hulk: Attorney At Law does that by playing in the sitcom sandbox, introducing female sexuality into the MCU, and bringing major new players into the franchise. And, yeah, the Daredevil walk of shame wasn’t bad either.
