In the "why didn't we have something like this earlier?" category comes the delightful and engaging Disney/Marvel production, "Ms. Marvel". Layered family drama mixes with Islamic culture to create a story of a young woman who is brave, confident and body positive. It's less of a superhero show and more of a human being show. The cast, particularly Iman Vellani, are uniformly outstanding. The storyline is not simple (that's a good thing) and the episodes don't go where you might expect (that's a better thing). The production is a bright, cheery, artistic explosion of color and creativity. I really didn't have a single qualm with this series and tore through it in a matter of days. Can't wait until season two.
