    It always felt like it was trying to be canonical but no one else wanted it to be. It was the little brother desperate to join the older kids only to get ditched at every opportunity.

    Which was annoying because most of the show was good, and all it would have taken is a tiny Easter egg to acknowledge it exists. As far as I know, the only thing we ever got was Jarvis in endgame being played by the same actor from Agent Carter.

    It’s kind of strange that the Netflix shows are the ones that got folded into canon when they basically ignored the rest of the MCU after Avengers. But I suppose that disconnect and the more narrow focus means there’s a lot less to clean up to make it fit. That and the fact that they were popular enough for Disney to see them as valuable.
