The Falcon and the Winter Soldier Complete Series Review


Listen Later

'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' has concluded so we've compiled all of our previous reviews of every episode from the series. On the March 22nd pod, we kicked things off by recapping the series premiere, 'New World Order', which catches us up with Sam Wilson after he forfeits the mantle of Captain America given to him by Steve Rogers (2:14). In 'The Star-Spangled Man', we're properly introduced to John Walker as the new Captain America, and learn about Isaiah Bradley, a veteran super soldier who fought the Winter Soldier in the Korean War (44:51). Then, we discuss the return of characters like Baron Zemo and Sharon Carter as the team travels to the criminal sanctuary city, Madripoor, in 'Power Broker' (1:25:24). 'The Whole World Is Watching' puts Sam, Bucky, and others on a dangerous collision course with the Flash Smashers and members of Wakanda's Dora Milaje, causing us to analyze every character's personal motivation (1:52:10). The penultimate episode, 'Truth', unpacks Isaiah Bradley's dark history as a super soldier, leading us to a discussion about the treatment and erasure of Black soldiers in America, and Sam's journey toward taking up the mantle (2:37:02). After the events of episode 5, we break down the chaotic finale, 'One World, One People', and the momentous moment of Sam Wilson officially becoming Captain America (3:38:00). Finally, we look back and share our thoughts on the series as a whole, and what the future may hold for its characters (4:26:10).
