Agatha All Alonghas begun, and theMarvel Cinematic Universeseries has garnered a better Rotten Tomatoes audience score thanCaptain America: The First Avenger.Rotten Tomatoes has two popular scales - the Tomatometer, which gauges critic scores, and the newly renamed audience score with the Popcornmeter.The First Avengerhas a slightly higher critic score, with 80% compared toAgatha’s 79%. Still, the audience score shows that audiences are invested in the new Disney+ series, which is fortunate.
Agatha All Alongdebuted with a 75% Popcornmeter score, matching the audience score ofCaptain America:The First Avenger.However, it seems that public opinion following thefirst two episodes ofAgathahas actually gone up in the days since, withAgatha All Alongnow sitting at a 78%.This will surely fluctuate over the coming weeks as additional episodes are released, but it is an excellent start for the Kathryn Hahn-led series. Following a few difficult years for Marvel Disney+ series, it is comforting to see that the new one has resonated with most audiences.
What Agatha All Along’s Audience RT Score Means
The Significance Of A Rotten Tomatoes Score Is Multifaceted
Rotten Tomatoes scores should be taken with a grain of salt, as they do not objectively quantify how well a film or series works. Still, they are a good gauge of audience interest.
Secret Invasion,for example, scored a low 52% on its critic score, and a lower 44% from audience scores, which seems to line up with public opinion of the series.WandaVision, meanwhile, hailed as perhaps the best Disney+ series, holds a 92% critic score, and an 88% audience score. It remains to be seen how muchAgatha’s score will fluctuate over the series' run.
Strangely, some series that did not seem to be beloved have higher Rotten Tomatoes scores.Moon Knight, which seemed to receive a mixed reception, currently holds an 86% critic score, and a 89% audience score, with the latter being even aboveWandaVision.This is also higher thanLoki’s 86% audience score. Following this comparison, the scores forAgatha All Alongare a good start, but may not actually indicate significant investment from audiences - though this current score may be more reflective of the divided reviews from those with particularly positive or negative views to share about the show’s debut.
Our Take On Agatha All Along’s Audience RT Score
The Score Is Good, Not Great
People seem to likeAgatha All Along, and that’s a good thing for Marvel. However, it remains to be seen how this rating will change over the course of the season.The full story has not been told, and many Marvel series have started strong in the past before ending disappointingly. I believe this score is good, but it is nothing exceptional, and that the overall reception ofAgatha All Alongwill take some time to get an accurate reading on.
