One of the most poignant and deep expositions on grief and healing ever put to screen summarised in a single line, and it came not from a script writer, but from an actor who knew ''just'' what to say.

* As an unseen Moment of Awesome, we find out that Maria Rambeau, since [[Film/CaptainMarvel we last saw her in the Nineties]], helped found S.W.O.R.D., built it "from the ground up" to handle threats from space and was its director, and that her young daughter Monica grew up to be one of its best agents.

** In fact, Creator/EvanPeters' sudden arrival is so great that it warrants InUniverse applause from the StudioAudience.
** On a meta-level, seeing Creator/ElizabethOlsen and Evan Peters onscreen together at all is so cool. They have arguably played the most famous versions of their respective Maximoff twin, and seeing them interact and hug is oddly satisfying.

* Props have to go to how each episode honestly looks like a product of their times given the sets and fashion, even up to the cars and extras in the background; it honestly looks like an episode plucked out of a former sitcom just appeared before your eyes!
* Since her first appearance in ''Age of Ultron'', the fans referred to Wanda as "the Scarlet Witch" on fan forums and such, even though she hadn't received the moniker InUniverse. As at least one article published after Episode 8 points out, this did not stop fans from freaking out when Agatha finally calls Wanda by her superhero name.
* The show's final ''three'' episodes all had so many people trying to access them the second they were released that [[DemandOverload Disney+'s servers crashed]].[[note]]Though the first one probably had some help from ''Series/TheMuppetShow''.[[/note]] Keep in mind this is the same system that handled the insanely-popular ''Series/TheMandalorian'' and ''Theatre/{{Hamilton}}'' just fine.

* Hayward's faction has Jimmy taken, handcuffed and surrounded. So Hayward gloats that he has won and that nobody will believe Jimmy's story of what happened (i.e. what really happened). Jimmy tells him that he has already contacted his friends at Quantico, and they are on their way. Hayward thinks that he's bluffing, but isn't entirely sure, so he has Jimmy thrown away, still in handcuffs but not under guard. Jimmy picks the lock, freeing himself, and uses a phone he stole before the talk with Hayward to call in and get an FBI unit to haul ass to Westview. And bear in mind that Jimmy stole that phone while still in the handcuffs ''in plain sight'', and somehow didn't get caught or draw attention to himself.

* Wanda sneaks up on Agatha and gets into her mind like [[ContinuityNod she did to the Avengers.]] However, Agatha seizes control of the hallucination and [[NoSell turns it against Wanda.]] The two end up having it out in the sky over Westview, with Agatha goading Wanda into giving up her powers. Wanda seems to comply, firing shots at her, but some of the shots seemingly go wild and crash into the walls of the hex. Wanda is left powerless, and Agatha begins to gloat, only to find that she suddenly can't use her powers. [[ExactlyWhatIAimedAt Wanda's "stray" blasts were actually manifesting the runes from Agatha's basement onto the giant walls of the Hex]], rendering Agatha powerless!

** The fact that Wanda is able to recreate the protective runes based on a very brief glimpse of them in Agatha's basement, then acts like a big dummy who continues to attack Agatha and miss while wheeling around Agatha and get angles on the various walls of the Hex, says that Wanda clearly has the memory of an elephant and the cunning of a fox.

It doesn't look like this Wiki EVER lists Emmy nominations on the Awesome moments page; not even the pages for shows with more nominations than this one list theirs. (And when WandaVision loses 1+ of these categories, will it still feel awesome to you?)
