Trivia
The Smithsonian Museum Captain America tribute first seen in Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014) is seen throughout the series. Many of the displays featured in it come from the MCU Captain America films including one of the posters being the 1st issue of Captain America comic book, the newspaper article of Captain America saving the child, the uniform of the Howling Commando named Pinkerton, weapons the Howling Commandos used in World War II, a newspaper article of the Howling Commandos destroying HYDRA factories, Steve Roger's 4F rejection form, Cap's poster as a war bond salesman, and Cap's bike and original shield from Captain America: The First Avenger (2011) as well as the uniform Captain America wore in Avengers Assemble (2012). The Bucky section is expanded to include his time as the Winter Soldier and the Sokovia Accords.

Crazy credits
During the portion of the end credits that is accompanied by photographs, graffiti and newspaper clippings, Sebastian Stan receives top billing in the odd-numbered episodes and Anthony Mackie gets top billing in the even-numbered ones.

However, they are followed by a more complete cast list in the non-animated part of the end credits in which Mackie always receives top billing.

A Solid MCU TV Show

This is still one of the more consistent MCU stories that actually manages to move the characters forward and try and tackle multiple different issues (potentially one too many).

The chemistry between the leads is great and very funny at times and Daniel Bruhl is always good as Baron Zemo. The storyline around Isaiah Bradley and what it means to be a Black Superhero is where the show is strongest, I think. Wyatt Russel is also strong as John Walker but I think the show struggles to balance a conflicted soldier dealing with grief and an out-and-out antagonist.

The main villain is one of the weak points. I appreciate the downward spiral comes from the death of the mother figure, but it would have been nice to see Karli before taking the serum to get a full grip of her descent from freedom fighter to murderer.

Hopefully Captain America and Bucky's stories are continued faithfully to the show in the two MCU movies next year.
