The WandaVision Easter Eggs I Spotted Across All Nine Episodes

WandaVision is over, so I'm going through my favorite Easter eggs from all nine episodes, from the very first glimpse of the Westview sign to the final post credits scene. We're all grieving for the show being over, but that just feels like it might be love persevering.

Episode 1: Westview's name hides Wanda and Vision's initials and a hint about the Hex

We start with Wanda and Vision driving into Westview and a minor glimpse of the sign, which changes throughout the season. The two words start with a W and a V, Wanda and Vision's initials, and the word TV sits in the middle. Taking a west view of the world means you have an altered perception of it. At the end of episode 4, we see the town's slogan: Home, it's where you make it, which hints at how Wanda made the Hex.

The first episode parodies The Dick Van Dyke Show, which appears again in episode 8. The title cards are very similar, but where the show's star tripped over the footstool in that intro, Vision passes through the chair. Vision's tie has a strange symbol of two dots inside a rectangular shape. If the dots represent Wanda and Vision, the rectangle could be the Hex, and the two dots on the outside could represent Agatha and Hayward, who are both somewhat the villains. Though Agatha All Along is so good, I really can't stay mad at her.

When Vision is hit with a plate, Wanda jokes about his indestructible head, which works because the Mind Stone got ripped out of it, killing him. The heart on the calendar on the 23rd is likely a reference to the deed in episode 8, where Vision bought the house and put a heart on it with a little message. I'm not crying, I swear. The 23 could also reference the 23 MCU movies before the series.

Agnes is a hint at Agatha Harkness, since her first and last letters spell Agnes. She says charmed, and her anniversary with Ralph is June 2, the start of the Salem witch trials. Her seduction tips come from a magazine called Glamorous, and a glamour is basically a spell that makes people seem appealing, potentially hinting that Agatha only seems nice.

Episode 1: The wine bottle points to House of M and the toaster to the Mind Stone

Mr. Hart's wife is played by Debra Jo Rupp, sitcom royalty from That '70s Show. Wanda greets Mr. Hart by covering his eyes, said to be a Sokovian greeting, and in episode 8 Wanda's mother does the same, which could be a callback. Agatha mocks the breakfast for dinner at the end of episode 8.

The words on the wine label translate to house of contempt, but the M on the neck suggests House of M, a graphic novel the show pulls from. Its famous cover shows Wanda's face in almost a Tetris like way, a style that appears when Wanda builds the house in episode 8 and when Monica is put back together after the blip. Mr. Hart's line about chaos is likely a reference to chaos magic, as one fan pointed out.

The Stark Industries toaster sounds like the arc reactor charging, and its blinking red light looks like the one on the missile Wanda encountered as a kid. The commercials could represent the Infinity Stones, and since the Toastmate 2000 looks like a face, the light could be the Mind Stone. That might be a reach, but Vision was given the nickname Toaster in the comics.

Episode 2: The Bewitched intro, Bova milk and a Strucker watch

The animated intro starts with moon and stars forming a hexagon and mimics Bewitched, about a witch hiding her powers, whose house later appears as Agatha's home. We can spot the Grim Reaper's helmet, and I spent ages theorizing he'd be in the show. A kitty litter ad called Auntie Ace likely ties to Agatha calling herself Auntie Agnes. There's also an ad for Bova milk; in the comics Bova was a mutated cow that delivered Wanda's kids, and I'm not even kidding.

Agatha is the only cartoon character who gets inside, hinting at her greater power. The act name Glamour and Illusion comes from a magical pair in Vision and the Scarlet Witch, and the magic cupboard bears the Mind Stone. The toy helicopter is one of SWORD's drones. Agatha's rabbit, Señor Scratchy, likely references her comic son Nicholas Scratch, and rabbits symbolize procreation, which could explain her carrying it instead of her black cat, Ebony.

The Strucker watch ad recalls the scientist who experimented on Wanda and her brother. The ads signify traumas in chronological order, and since this one centers on time, I think it represents the Time Stone. There aren't really any kids in Westview, despite the talent show. Phil plays piano, and in episode 8 he hangs an ad for lessons. In the 70s house, the wallpaper shows the castle from Age of Ultron, Wanda's first film.

Episode 3: The Brady Bunch hexagons and hints that Wanda would have twins

The title card is similar to The Brady Bunch but uses hexagons, and the house is modeled on that show's home. Dr. Nielson's name nods to Nielsen ratings. Vision reads an occult looking pregnancy book in front of an appliance store, hinting at a machine trying to become a father. He quotes Shakespeare, the whole world's a stage, referring to everyone putting on an act. When Wanda mentions butterflies in her stomach, the mobile comes to life, hinting she's behind it all.

Several hints point to twins: a swing set with two swings and a seesaw, and a lamp at Phil's house with two babies. The bright light is likely SWORD's spotlights. The Hydra Soak box could represent the Tesseract and calls back to Agents of SHIELD, where Coulson discussed Hydra's mind control soap. The ad parodies Calgon's take me away commercials and features two kids.

The surprise second baby references Vision and the Scarlet Witch, where Doctor Strange didn't realize Wanda was having twins. Wanda notices Monica's SWORD necklace, her ID badge. Agatha pushes the idea that Monica needs to go and plants doubt in Vision, which eventually makes him leave so Agatha can babysit. In the words of Joker, it's all part of the plan. Daydream Believer plays as Monica, outside the Hex, awakens to the truth.

Episode 4: Monica's opening mirrors Wanda's grief

This is by far my favorite opening of any episode. Monica was robbed of saying goodbye to her mother, mirroring Wanda, who returned to find the one person she cared about gone. A news report of two women hugging, potentially a mother and daughter, is somewhat of a slap in the face to Monica. Her ID fails at a door, contrasting with Wanda blasting through it later. Maria's plaque shows Photon, first seen on her jet in Captain Marvel, and Monica also goes under this name, establishing that she's carrying on her mother's mission.

Jimmy Woo's card trick was set up in Ant-Man and the Wasp. Monica's drone carries Captain Marvel's colors, which she helped choose as a kid. Agatha's ID is absent because she's using a fake name, though I'm not sure they could track her even if they knew. The Hex uses CMBR, radiation dating to the Big Bang, which could tie to Wanda drawing on the Infinity Stones created with it.

Dottie's reaction and blood were edited out. When Monica is thrown out, she passes through four walls, and New Rockstars noted this is likely the scene literally breaking the fourth wall. The closing song, Voodoo Child, could reference the twins and Wanda, who had powers as a child.

Episode 5: Sparky, cousin Oliver and Wanda's Magneto moment

Wanda's sofa with one blue cushion calls back to Family Ties. Agatha breaks character without the Mind Stone. She's present both times the kids age up, likely hinting she's behind it, and wants to force a third time, probably why she murders Sparky. In the Vision graphic novel, the dog Zeke died after digging up the Grim Reaper's corpse and was resurrected as a synthezoid called Sparky. Agatha's line, "Kids, you can't control them," might reference her own mother. Billy and Tommy wear their comic counterparts' colors, hammering home that they'll become Wiccan and Speed.

The intro nods to Family Ties, Growing Pains and Full House, in which Elizabeth Olsen's real life twin sisters starred, a big meta joke. Evan Peters fits cousin Oliver syndrome, when a declining show adds a new character to pull an audience back. Hayward's edited footage shows he was lying, and both he and Wanda control the information people see. Darcy's Father Knows Best line nods to a 1954 sitcom. Norm's "You have to stop her" can apply to Agatha.

The Stark Industries drone is triggering because Wanda sees history repeating. Turning the soldiers' guns on Hayward resembles Magneto in the first X Men movie, and since in some continuity he's her father, it's a cool father daughter moment. She vows no one will take Vision again, setting up the reveal that Hayward has his body. The Lagos paper towels reference Civil War's opening; I initially thought reality stone but I think it might represent the Power Stone. I absolutely love how Wanda rolls the credits instead of facing the argument, and I think this scene is so well put together. Pietro resembles Uncle Jesse from Full House.

Episode 6: Halloween costumes and The Parent Trap

The Halloween episode is based on a Vision and the Scarlet Witch chapter. The Malcolm in the Middle intro has lyrics about keeping the illusion going. Agatha's jeans say naughty, and she dresses like a witch. Wanda's Sokovian fortune teller costume nods to her comics mother, Magda. The costume designer said Pietro's gelled hair references Wolverine. Calling the kids devil spawns nods to Mephisto creating them. Ryan from Screen Crush noted the ponchos recall Thor's first film.

The claymation commercial could nod to the snap. Purple on the shark's surfboard likely references Agatha, and the boy in red who can't open his yogurt could represent Agatha keeping Wanda occupied while draining her. With an island like the Hex and its focus on death, it could be the Soul Stone. The cinema shows The Incredibles and The Parent Trap, which could nod to the two Pietros. Ellis Avenue likely references President Ellis from Iron Man 3. Pietro convincing Wanda the Hex is special echoes House of M, and he shows the bullet holes the Aaron Taylor-Johnson version died from.

Episode 7: Mockumentary clues and a voice that turns out to be Agatha's

Hexagons cover Vision's pillow but not Wanda's, suggesting she isn't subject to the same rules. Sugar Snaps cereal could reference the snap, and its maze might nod to people trapped. The news comes from WNDA, and an NDA keeps people from talking. The title cards resemble Happy Endings, directed by the Russo brothers. A license plate reading 12 28 22 is Stan Lee's birthday. A ransom note is likely Agatha's doing, and a fishbowl reading Wanda may reference A Fish Called Wanda. It's sad that after this episode, no more sitcom stuff.

The depression ad is clearly a stand in for Wanda, and its drug, Nexus, matches Wanda being a nexus being; it's likely about the Reality Stone. Agatha's mole is typically a witch's sign. An off screen voice, pitch shifted, is actually Kathryn Hahn. Monica's spectrometer numbers nod to Spectrum and chart a hexagon. The cicada on the curtains recalls an early Mephisto form and The Silence of the Lambs, and Agatha All Along, the song of the century, plays on The Munsters intro.

Episode 8: Agatha's purple magic and Wanda's past

The Marvel Studios logo turns purple, showing Agatha is in control; her magic comes from the Dark Dimension, home of Dormammu. The opening resembles her comics death at the hands of the Salem Seven. Her dad's name could be playing on Erik, Magneto's real name. The Van Dyke walnut episode turns a dream into a nightmare much like the series. Wanda's Mind Stone vision is likely the Scarlet Witch's final form, and the Brady Bunch doll is the one Vision practiced on in episode 3.

Vision drops the best line in the MCU. His dismantled body recalls the West Coast Avengers, and Wanda's "I can't feel you" calls back to Infinity War. There's no more please stand by in the credits. Bravo.

Episode 9: The Wizard of Oz boots, the Darkhold and Wundagore Mountain

Hitting Agatha with a car recalls the airport scene in Civil War, and her boots in the wreckage are a clear call back to The Wizard of Oz. White Vision grabbing Wanda's head echoes Ultron. The mailman's "Don't shoot me. I'm just a messenger" repeats his episode 2 line, likely showing he's in a loop. The Darkhold has a chapter on Wanda, and Agatha says Wanda's power is far beyond the Sorcerer Supreme, which is why Wanda reads it while walking around in the scene after the credits when Strange had to be asleep, as Darth Rahul pointed out.

The Incredibles pose, Speed stealing a guard's hat like Quicksilver in Days of Future Past, and the two Visions in the library echo comics where two Visions fused. Wanda's red crown resembles Agatha's mother's, and the runes were set up in Agatha's basement; going forward it looks like Agatha might be a mentor. Wanda's costume resembles Magneto's, and Ryan Arey noted the window shot resembles Fight Club. Jimmy delegates like Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive, the Tannhäuser Gate banner references Blade Runner, and Wanda at Wundagore Mountain, with the Doctor Strange theme, set up the Multiverse of Madness.
