Another paywall for the MCU?  Not explicitly part of the MCU in the articles AFAICT, but very likely.

Hulu is already worth having for a number of reasons.

I'd love to hear what people think of this show once it airs...  Starts 11/21.

If you got tv MCU problems I feel bad for you son, if it ain't on netflix I don't give a fuck.

I canceled my Hulu sub after all the Criterion stuff moved over to FilmStruck. As much as I liked Runaways (while BKV was writing it) none of the trailers I've seen for this are doing anything for me. Given that the showrunner here is the creator, co-creator, or exec producer of shows such as The O.C., Gossip Girl, and the Carrie Diaries I'm going to guess that maybe I'm not the target audience for this.

No reviews to offer?  Any good?

Hulu is getting Agent Carter reruns, with a possibility (unlikely) of new episodes...

I think it's actually really good. Maybe even if you're not familiar with the source material.

It's getting started a bit more slowly than the comic. But I don't mind the backstory on the Pride, looks like they're going to matter more as characters with ongoing stories than in the comics.

I liked the Runaways (until they took down Pride). I still ain't watching this due to it not being on Netflix, casting is a giant meh, and the trailer looks like it wants to be trending on tumblr.

Just finished watching the series on Disney+.

I don't remember liking the first season as much as Khaldun, but the final 2 seasons are really good IMO. The show was canceled but I felt the last episode was a good sendoff.

I really cooled on the first season by the end because they took too long to run away.

It was on par with the weaker Netflix shows (Luke Cage) in terms of quality.  I honestly liked Cloak and Dagger better.

I think we'll see C&D reappear elsewhere in Marvel, someday, but Runaways may have absolutely no future in this instance of the MCU.
