Episode 1 was pretty great even with the odd version of Harry Osborn. A lot of MCU nods but it is almost a What If? especially with the ending.

I mean Iron Man was a car ornament so it's not like Tony Stark doesn't exist.

This was excellent. I was 100% correct it was one giant what if episode.

So much of this was really great. The best though was the absolute subservsion of Peter's influences. Norman Osborn with the updated Uncle Ben to with Great Power Comes Great Respect instead of responsibilty. Despite basically Elon Musk influence the entire show, Peter Parker is still this incorruptible everyman.

I have to really applaud the show runners for this. I am still frankly blown away the line of "With Great Power Comes Great Respect" instead of responsibility. That's the proverbial line between hero and villian/antihero.
