    For season structure, I'd go the "Lower Decks" route, and do silly, seemingly random stuff that actually is connected from episode to episode with the last episode of each season being very serious.

    A video about the most obscure characters in the MCU would be great like for example a lot showed up in She-Hulk, like Leapfrog, El Aguila, Man-Bull, Porcupine, Mr Immortal Also Sword Master from Hawkeye and Red Dagger from Ms Marvel also comes to mind. It’ll be really funny if they made a team out of misfit hero’s.

Made up of a bunch of super weird heroes like a gladiator from a post apocalyptic New Jersey, an ancient wizard stuck in the body of his grandniece, a child who can bend reality, and a pyrokenetic assassin who is *not* fireproof.

    and David Pasquesi (which was so weird to see an old Mister Immortal in She-Hulk)

    Fun Fact: There Was almost (kinda) a GLA Show, where it was mashed-up with New Warriors (and named after New Warriors.) A pilot was made for FreeForm but it never aired, and it was just passed around a lot until it just fizzled out. But Craig Hollis Played Mr. Immortal In it, which is kinda funny why he showed up in She-Hulk as Mr Immortal
