Ranking Every MCU Show From Worst To Best

12. Helstrom

MCU TV Shows Ranked
Marvel Television / Hulu

While the larger scope of the MCU has recently taken a more mystical, magical turn with WandaVision, one other 'new' series with similar elements at play was Helstrom.

Unlike WandaVision, though, Helstrom proved to be a complete and utter dud, with ABC and Marvel Television pulling the plug on the show just two months after its first season arrived on Hulu.

Fans went into Helstrom expecting demons, possessions and bloodshed, and while that was largely what we got, the sad reality is that it was all delivered in the blandest, most formulaic, vanilla way imaginable. Tom Austin and Sydney Lemmon made for decent choices as sibling duo Daimon and Ana Helstrom, yet the Daimon character was horrendously written across the series' debut season.

Ana Helstrom was a far more engaging presence when on screen, but she alone wasn't enough to save Helstrom from being a stinker of a series. Not only did Helstrom feel extremely subpar in regards to the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe, it also felt extremely subpar for a supernatural show, period.

As an MCU show and as a spooky series, Helstrom failed spectacularly, with most other MCU series being better, and so many other supernatural shows being far more appealing.
