    I dropped it after three episodes.

    I suppose I could consider giving it another shot in that case, if the tone changes.

      The tone doesn’t change. But the ego kinda like Tony Stark (or Thor, or Doctor Strange, etc). The ego is there and it’s part of the character. Sometimes it blows up. Idk, I’d say you don’t need to finish it if you didn’t like it. But her attitude isn’t really different than with other characters.

        Tbh I’m not really a fan of Tony Stark for similar reasons.

        She-Hulk has gone through a lot of iterations, and in the comics sometimes serves as a foil to Iron Man, from their first meeting in the original run. While she tends to be impulsive and unrestrained, I don’t generally read her as egotistical or arrogant.

        The Dan Slott comics are some of my favorite because they play with the duality of the character, switching between She-Hulk and Jennifer Walters and exploring the strengths and weaknesses of each side, while also doing a lot of fun world-building and exploring creative legal questions.

        But the show, honestly it just came across to me like the main appeal is that chuds don’t like it and get owned in it. Which is cool and all, but if that’s the only thing going for it, it’s not really saying anything interesting or being fun to watch. It’s not difficult to piss off chuds or own them. I could just follow some reply guy (or reply girl?) on Twitter and get that. There’s a difference between agreeing with a piece of media and it being good.
