WandaVision’s Agatha Harkness

Before Agatha Harkness (Kathryn Hahn) eventually revealed herself to be the one person in Westview actually understanding what the hell was going on with Wanda Maximoff, she spent each and every single episode doing one of the better jobs of really selling the weirdness of WandaVision. All of its narrative twists and developments tied to the larger MCU aside, WandaVision was a show built on a premise that absolutely needed its characters to strike a balance between retro sitcom kitsch and modern horror. Perhaps because she was in on the gag all along, Agatha embodied those aspects of the show most strongly from the jump. – Charles Pulliam-Moore
