I have been so torn on it for exactly this reason. I have been travelling so not watching enough to consider it but Kathryn, Patti, Sasheer, and Aubrey all in something feels like a custom-made trap to trick me into watching Marvel again.

i'm only 2 episodes in but i'm enjoying it, and there's minimal Marvel-kudzu growing all over it. AFAICT the writers are mostly the same as on WandaVision, which I expect means it will be mostly independent but tie in to a larger Marvel plot at the end
