Isaiah Bradley’s backstory (self.marvelstudios)

Finally got around to watching “Falcon and The Winter Soldier” and it would have been so much better if Isaiah Bradley’s story had been the first episode, or a stand-alone movie. Instead it’s just told in exposition. If you go read his backstory, it is a pillar of the F&WS plot. Disappointing that an interesting chapter of this universe is confusingly meted out in bits and pieces across episodes. Here’s hoping his “prequel” eventually gets told.

As an aside — am I really supposed to believe Falcon doesn’t get paid the big bucks and can’t afford to pay to fix up his sister’s boat?

The show had a lot of potential, and some good ideas. It's just too bad the execution didn't work out, but I think I heard part of it could be because of the pandemic.

I agree, and I do understand some things are beyond control. But the Captain America franchise is the one that didn't have any stinkers yet, and I can't help but feel like FatWS was a harbinger of bad things to come.
