Hawkeye [mild spoilers]

I loved watching this show. There are a few things that bothered me, especially some of the resolutions and unanswered questions at the end of the show, but the good bits outnumbered any problems that I had. I am particularly enamored with the new character of Kate Bishop. Although she is almost lighthearted to a fault, I felt that the character was really well written with an excellent performance by Hailee Steinfeld.

Kate's banter is probably my favorite part of the show. It is an excellent counterpoint to Clint's much darker and brooding storyline and character. Together, they made a excellent team (even with its off-again, on again moments). However, it's her developing interactions with Yelena in the last couple of episodes that was my absolute favorite part.

My biggest complaint is that everything gets wrapped up too quickly at the end, leaving me with a number of questions. I was particularly disappointed with Echo's arc. In a way, it reminded me of the introduction of the Punisher in Daredevil season two, but with even less development and closure. It's clear that Disney is setting her up for her own show, but she felt shoe-horned into this one.

​All told, this was a great Christmas-themed show that I could watch again and again.
