There have been a lot more misses than hits since Endgame, kinda dragging the Marvel brand through the mud considering how it should be 'the' comic universe. With Agatha All Along that follows after Wandavision, there is now a second 'really good' show other than Loki.
From a puzzeling start, although not confusing for those that watched Wandavision, to the cast assembling and singing The Witches Ballad, a song that has no right to be as catchy as it is, we get introduced into the witchier side of the MCU, then the story really gets started, a really, really satisfying resolution finds us in episode 7 by Patti LuPone, who better get an oscar for that performance. Which then ends after some more resolution.
Now, I would definitely say that some parts blew me away, the song, with multiple different versions, how certain mysteries were resolved, especially ep7 and just generally the aesthetic and different costumes and looks, not to mention the environment, something I don't think I've ever noticed in other shows to this extent.
There were some parts I disliked, but overall I'd definitely recommend this.

The episodes this season have been kinda hit or miss, but for me this was a solid hit. It's always about the ninja, at least that's how it feels like, but it's called Ninjago for a reason, and thus getting a look at how some of the more
normal, yet still badass, teens do was a treat.
Though the ninja can be neat, having a minor side character introduced like Nelson was a welcome change of pace. For an 11 minute episode it had plenty of content. The dangers paperboys have to avoid and how just one of the cogwebs keeping Ninjago as it is works was a fascinating look. Only wish there were more glimpses like this.

I think the first season of Sweet Tooth was pretty great, mainly because of the novelty, the second was ok, the cartoonishness of the main antagonist brought it down a bit, while the third season also suffered from such an antagonist while also limiting the amount of impactful character interactions, at least compared to previous seasons.
The third season felt like it dragged a bit. And generally felt like it didn't really break from the mold story-wise. It feels childish, the whole series has had that childish undertone, even with all the deaths and violence. Combined with the rather simplistic plot and villains made this into a worse than average series imo.
That's also why I'm saying that it's a young adult series, it feels too simple for adults to fully enjoy, the dialogue was... kinda bad. While most characters felt fairly one-dimensional. I wouldn't really recommend it because it doesn't feel like it shares any good messages except maybe to not judge others for the body they were born into? The whole mystical Sick shtick also felt like it distracted from the whole hybrids topic. A lot of the adult were also acting supremely dumb, feels like it was forced to be that way so that adults dumb (except those on Gus's side), kids clever was what it felt like.
Not to mention the amount of speeches the characters keep giving and how they all magically work and are 'so' uplifting. Too childish to be all that enjoyable, too violent for kids, it's somewhat enjoyable, but I'd still not recommend it for anyone with a backlog to watch.
Personally I couldn't keep watching the last few episodes because they were that generic. Doesn't feel like they were anything except a waste of time with the typical endings these sort of childish series have.
