8 Better TV Series That Were Secretly Hidden In Shows

1. The Isaiah Bradley Story - The Falcon And The Winter Soldier

Though the definite passing of the Captain American mantle to Sam Wilson and reintroducing of the likes of Baron Zemo were both handled admirably over the course of the MCU's second live-action Disney+ TV project, there's simply no denying that an unexpectedly much more riveting tale was largely left unexplored over the course of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.

That being Isaiah Bradley's all but erased chapter in MCU history as one of the first folks post-Steve Rogers to survive the super serum experiment.

Carl Lumbly has already movingly recounted in the series the fact that his Bradley was at the centre of a ton of covert missions back in the 1950s, one of which even involved him colliding with The Winter Soldier himself and taking half of his arm for good measure. Now, who wouldn't want to see that hard-hitting collision and many others like it play out on the small-screen?

And the tragic events that led to Bradley's eventual imprisonment before being experimented on by Hydra and ignored by the history books would also make for some impactful television, whilst also adding further depth to Lumbly's outstanding turn in FATWS and his no-doubt stellar upcoming work in Captain America: New World Order.

With FATWS creator Malcolm Spellman also responding with a swift "for sure" when asked how interested he'd be in delivering a Bradley prequel, you wouldn't bet against The Isaiah Bradley Story finally being told before long.
