All is well that ends in pizza.
I'd take it one step further and say you can sing most of the Agatha All Along lyrics to the Munster theme.

Wandavision Episode 8
Mid end credits are again involved after a jaw-dropping episode. The HSQ is strong with this show.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I...did not enjoy that. As someone who watched (almost) all of Agents of SHIELD *and* all of Alias, I like to think I have a pretty high tolerance for infodump eps, but...ngh. Oh well.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Didn't the SWORD guy say that Wanda took Vision's body from them? What a lying liar.
And was he actively trying to traumatize her by showing her Vision's body? Trying to trigger an explosion of her powers?

What?
I don't know of I'm just not in the mood for "everything you thought you knew was wrong", but I am not sure about all this.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
That really was a big infodump. And Hayward is a dick.
So, now that the MCU has mutants, the retcon is that Wanda always had latent mutant powers all along, but the mind stone that Hydra used is what brought them out? I mean if they've gotta retcon her into a mutant, that's not the worst way to do it.
Also, Vision and Wanda were the 2 characters I cared least about in the MCU, and this show has managed to get me to care about them, so, well played, MCU.
There's only one episode left, and I'm worried we're not going to find out what the goddamn deal is with Dottie.

That would be bad. I’m plenty curious about Dottie.
There’s a whole lot of stuff to be resolved next week! Maybe more will be left on the table for season 2 than I would guess.

Randomly, in the murder mystery I’m currently reading the victim is named Harkness. It’s a bit distracting.

I was kind of cringing when I heard the episode was called "Previously on...", but that was mostly thinking it would be a rehash of the previous episodes.. I thought the section with Little Wanda kind of dragged, but aside from that found it pretty compelling.
They've missed a couple of gags I wouldn've liked though. The previous episode they should have had Vision ask Darcy, "You've been watching what now?", and in this one:
KATHRYN HAHN: Previously on Agatha All Along! ....what?
(indistinct voice)
KATHRYN HAHN: Oh come on!
(indistinct voice)
KATHRYN HAHN: FINE! (sarcastically) Previously on Wandavision
