Kids say that the show, while having some charm and humorous moments, is heavily criticized for its inappropriate content, including sexual themes and poor CGI. Many viewers feel that it lacks a coherent plot and downgrades beloved characters, especially portraying female superheroes in an over-sexualized manner, leading to mixed reactions regarding its suitability for younger audiences.

What's the Story?
SHE-HULK: ATTORNEY AT LAW is an MCU superhero show about a woman who becomes a Hulk. Jennifer Walters (Tatiana Maslany) is a young attorney who just got her own office and is ready to slay as a lawyer. After a cross-contamination accident involving her Hulk cousin Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), Jennifer reluctantly becomes She-Hulk, a superhero with the same powers and strength as the Hulk. She must navigate a new life that she hopes includes her legal career, and just might involve "hulking out" for the greater good.
Is It Any Good?
A quirky premise and a winning performance from Maslany don't quite take this series to the heights of other Marvel shows, but it's still a lot of fun. It is weird that when Walters "hulks out," she only seems to get 10% bigger but 150% sexier. Explain that, Dr. Banner! That said, the combo of courtroom antics and superhero drama is a goofy treat, and its stars play well with the light, irreverent tone that includes breaking the fourth wall and speaking directly to the viewer.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about emotions. Why is it important for the Hulks to manage their emotions? What about regular people? What techniques do you use?
Jen doesn't want to be a Hulk. Have you ever felt that there's a part of you that you don't like but must accept?
Which part of Walters' life is more difficult -- the lawyer life, or the Hulk life? Why do you think so?
