  • Every TV Sitcom That Was Secretly Referenced In WandaVision

    For those who started watching WandaVision and were VERY confused by what was happening… don’t worry, we were all there with you! In today’s video, we’ll be clearing up any confusion and going through all the homages and easter eggs the show has to famous sitcoms from throughout the decades!
    We have LOVED watching Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bethany perform in the style of so many recognizable shows that made TV history what it is today. From performances to sets - the WandaVision team when all out to bring out the best of TV history in the new Marvel hit. The series started off with tributes to some of the earliest tv shows, like “I Love Lucy” and “I Dream of Jeannie”. The 70’s brought all kinds of laughs and quirks with shows like “The Brady Bunch,” which gets a lot of direct nods in WandaVision.
    Then when it was time to visit the 80’s, the show brought in some of Elizabeth Olsen’s personal history with reference to the hit series “Full House” - one of the very first shows she ever appeared in!
    The show swung into the 90’s and gave the kids lots of fun tropes to work with, reminiscent of those used in Malcolm in the Middle. Once we arrived in the present day, the references didn’t stop and we found ourselves humming along with the theme song the same way we hum along with the one for the show “The Office.” How many references did you catch?

    I just love how the show’s name works on so many levels:
    1. The show is about Wanda and Vision, obviously: Wanda & Vision.
    2. Wanda is married to Vision and she took his last name, since Vision is a mono-name, her last name became Vision: Wanda Vision.
    3. Television shows are “televised visual programs”, hence this living sitcom created by Wanda is: Wandavision.
    4. The show is set in a dream world of Wanda, so it’s her “vision” realized: Wanda’s vision.

    WandaVision is sad and deep in so many levels. A lot of neglected children in the past used TV sitcom as their foster family. A child whose parents were never home, or whose parents fight and bickering all the time, for examples. Say what you want about Bill Cosby, but watching the Cosby Show as a child made me feel the warmth of a family that I couldn't find at home.

    Elizabeth Olson is such an Amazing actress. She got the tone and pacing perfect, and even the inflection in her voice was just like the era of the sitcoms they were doing. Like she was channeling Laura Petrie and Samantha from Bewitched and Mrs. Dunphy. It wasn't just a different set, but her whole characterization changed and the way she spoke and moved. She must have studied those sitcoms. I know she studied at several different acting schools and acting troupes. I think that those varying methods have allowed her to cover so many acting styles flawlessly.

    Ok i just realized something. Yes the intros are incredibly similar to the shows the pay homage to, but there is one difference that may not be noticeable at first but once you see all of the WandaVison intros together, you will notice that if the OG intro includes a shape, (which most of them do), the WandaVison version replaces the OG shape with a hexagon. And guess what the name of the anomaly they’re in is nicknamed, thats right the HEX just like the shape HEXagon that is in most of the WandaVison intros. That is a very small and interesting detail or Easter egg that I thought was cool they included and is only noticeable if you watch all the intros together. But yeah MIND BLOWN 🤯

    I'm not American and I'm born in the late 90's so I did not know any of these shows to recognize the references. While I have seen videos highlighting them, I didn't know how far they had gone to get it right down to a T. Seeing these videos makes me appreciate the show so much more than just for it's plot, character arcs, costumes, performances, special effects and the pace. It actually blows my mind how the set remains the same but still somehow looks like the set of so many TV shows. And to think that even all this is part of the plot: Wanda put in all these details herself because that's what she picked up when she watched these shows as a child, and then later with Vision, the two truly happy phases of her life.
    In my opinion, this show is a pinnacle of Marvel's work.

      Full House, Growimg Pains, Family Ties, Roseanne all used the "aging up" in the opening credits. Something kinda nostaligic and familiar about it... makes the character's actually feel like family. Or like you are watfhing a real family.
      I remember feeling nostalgic watching "older" episodes of 'Married With Children' because Bud and Kelly looked SO DIFFERENT in the opening credits/ depending on the season. Same with Whos the Boss. The late 80s to early 90s seemed like suge a HUGE step in aesthetics.

Agnes played an Ethel Mertz-type role in Episodes 1 and 2 (given that in Bewitched there is no "best friend" character that I can recall).

    The picture sequence showing them age from childhood to adult hood in the 80s episode, I don’t remember that ever being part of full house. However they did do it on family ties as well as growing pains. Also important to note the opening bit with the family portrait is being painted by a paintbrush, that is the iconic opening of family ties. Also the interior of their house in the 80s is reminiscent of the Torkelsons (which I think might’ve been the 90s, but it would’ve been 90s early) as well as full house and a few others.

    On first watch, my wife instantly recognized the homage to Gilmore Girls in the town square Halloween show. I had seen a little of the show but wouldn’t have recognized this detail. I haven’t seen anyone mention that similarity until now - good catch.
    It wasn’t just the look of the town; the quick pace of the dialogue during that scene is definitely Gilmore Girls

    • @ryanholmquist8268
      @ryanholmquist8268 Před 3 lety

      The only reason why that episode gives Gilmore Girls vibes is because the town set is the exact same one at the WB back lot in Burbank. Thing is, it was used in the majority of the episodes - this one in particular just happened to display the gazebo more prominently. Besides GG and WV, the city set is used for many other shows and movies.

Aside from pretty much every Disney movie I watched as a child, there are several shows that used both locations for filming, like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and The Office (Schrute Farms!) which it why it looks so familiar.

The drawing to portrait was Family Ties and the picnic shots were Full House, but the photos of each cast member at different stages of their life, of them each “growing up,” followed by a shot of them on the show, was specifically Growing Pains. Even the song they came up felt extremely similar to the Growing Pains theme song.

    Gilmore Girls wasn’t an inspiration for the aughts-based episode. The town set they used (for the majority of episodes, not just for the Halloween scenes) is a part of the WB back lot in Burbank. It only came off as more obvious in this episode due to the use of color and the prominence of the gazebo. The WB back lot - the town square and other buildings and streets surrounding it - is used by many, many other series and movies. Gilmore Girls only happened to make the most extensive use of the town square. An example of another popular show shot there is Friends, specifically in scenes that take place on the street outside of Central Perk. If you pay close attention to shots (in both GG and WV, iirc) in which the narrow street with taller buildings is visible, you should be able to see where Friends was filmed.

      They actually shot the series on Golden Oak Ranch since it's disney owned property. WB isn't letting the mouse on their shooting lots and they aren't forking the money over to them either, lbr. They added the gazebo into the set, likely as a nod to Gilmore Girls and other series shot on the WB lot.

    While the animation of the 2nd episode opening is based on Bewitched, the music is based more on I Dream of Jeannie. The chord progressions and the change of tonal center in the middle third are spot on for Jeannie.
