MCU: All 10 Marvel Disney Plus shows ranked from worst to best

4. Moon Knight

In the time since Moon Knight‘s conclusion, there seems to be this growing misconception that the show wasn’t good. But if you were there, watching it weekly as new episodes were unveiled, you’ll know that’s not in the slightest bit true.

There was a lot riding on the show’s success, namely Moon Knight’s career in the MCU as it was the character’s first ever live-action adaptation. The odd thing about it was how disconnected from the wider MCU that it was, with little-to-no references to anything that had happened before it. And, in a way, that’s a good thing, as it allowed Moon Knight to feel like its own contained TV show in a world overwhelmed by big-budget cinematic showdowns.

The show was able to breathe as it introduced the MCU to a new lore, one that focused on Egyptian Gods, like the moon god Khonshu, who used Marc Spector (a man suffering from dissociative identity disorder) as his avatar to fight injustice – something that Mark’s other personality Steven Grant was unaware of. It was ambitious for a character introduction, but Moon Knight pulled it off, delivering a cinematic story that made full use of all six of its episodes. And though there may have been occasional pacing issues, it all came together because of Oscar Isaac’s career-defining performance.
