Watch note

The Runaways on the run. Jonah's alien nature revealed. No Doomsday thread.

Why It Matters in the MCU

The Hulu series follows six teenagers who discover their parents are a secret criminal organisation, and the family dynamic — both the parents' world and the children's rebellion against it — is more interesting than the superhero elements the later seasons introduce. The Pride's morally compromised parental figures are the series' strongest creative achievement: adults who genuinely love their children and are also genuinely terrible people, making the conflict generationally specific in ways that resonate outside genre. The series is the most coming-of-age-focused production in the extended Marvel television universe.
