I liked it. It was funny and entertaining. I saw all the hate and outrage as a bunch of basement dwellers upset all their pee bottles were full.

On a meta level it was also pretty funny how towards the second half of the series, the underlying antagonists of the show turned out to be basically woman hating incels, and that seemed to be where a lot of the backlash to the show had been coming from online.

Very much so, but they definitely hung a massive lantern on it, with She-Hulk using her meta-powers (much like Deadpool, but different) to change the script, literally going into the writers room, and a bunch of self-deprecating jokes from the writers ensues. (Spoilers, obviously)

It was awesome for the same reason a lot of people hated it:

It was a massive tone shift.

So people who already had Marvel fatigue loved it. People that just wanted the same thing as every other Marvel show were disappointed, and they were used to being exclusively catered to by marvel, so they took it personally.

Like, if a teenage boy in jr high didn't like She-Hulk, no one should be surprised. They weren't the target audience.

A grown adult that wouldn't stop bitching about, are just a loud minority

That's a bingo!
