Yeah, I noticed my mistake. The wikipedia image for single-camera setup is just pretty misleading.

All the Marvel TV shows take place in the same universe as the films

sure, it sounds cool but the bubble doesn't need bad movies or shows for it to burst. It just needs for the general audience to grow exhausted and apathetic towards marvel stuff.
Even as someone who grew up with late 80s early 90s comics, i'm starting to feel burned out by all of this stuff
Ah, got it. Anyway, hope they can pull it off.
Mangaverse Dr.Doom. Black Panther's sister kills Doom and takes the mantle
Just let Mangaverse die in disgrace.

So how do they do this with limited or no hero appearances? Every episode going to start after the fight and we're never gonna see what causes all the destruction?
I want this to work but im curious how they're gonna pull it off with a TV comedy budget.

yeah, that's exactly what they're doing. It's a single camera comedy, says it right there in the OP.
Netflix got the properties which won't work on network TV.

I can not believe that, of all things, Damage Control is getting a TV show.

At least you can talk. Who are you?
I'd look myself but I'm on mobile, but what's the currently status of Marvel's TV projects?
Agents of Shield on its third season.
Agent Carter is filming its second.
Daredevil is filming it's second.
Jessica Jones is out later this year.
Luke Cage is filming.
Iron Fist and Defenders next year.
Damage Control announcement.
A Mockingbird and Hunter spin-off (was this rumour or confirmed?)
And another unannounced project I believe?
Can anyone help or clarify?

With some news story about the Hulk and Iron Man battling Fin Fang Foom in downtown Manhattan.
Cameos. Like a cold opening of them dewebbing a crook, or trying to figure out how to unstone a dude.

Yeah, a show called Powerless.

what? WHAT? Damage Control as in
this Damage Control?
...what?
If they actually said "When will these stupid questions be answered?" In a commercial for this, I would love it.

Mangaverse Dr.Doom. Black Panther's sister kills Doom and takes the mantle
Interesting, was the story good at least?
Yeah it was in the first Marvel Mangaverse, the second one they killed everybody and it got bad
Not really. AoS and Agent Carter are firmly in the middle of the pack

I will never understand this "bubble burst" stuff.
It's just the same people trying to act like they're better than others because they don't watch those horrid "superhero" shows/movies destroying our culture.

Mostly correct. Iron Fist and Defenders have no dates yet, Marvel's Most Wanted (SHIELD spinoff) is unofficially confirmed for a pilot order, and the other project is being developed by John Ridley, of American Crime and 12 Years a Slave.
It's the new way of saying "stop liking what I don't like".
They're too cool for all this popular shit.

Yeah, I get that the TV business model is changing and all, but I don't get how Carter and SHIELD's ratings are enough to justify having three Marvel projects in development.
Shit is right, mirite?

Seriously, I'm geeking out so hard about this right now. This is way better than a Lance/Bobbi spinoff to me.
Their movies are reason enough.

Well, it's true, but I don't get people saying it like they're onto something or that it has anything at all to do with the specifics of superhero movies. It happened to musicals, it happened to westerns, it'll happen to superhero movies, and it'll happen to other things after we're all dead. It's common sense, and the people that say it like they're actually making some kind of point or showing any kind of insight at all are aggressively annoying.

Also, isn't Damage Control kind of an awkward fit for the MCU conceptually? Even with Inhumans gradually emerging, it's hardly struck me as a place where public superhuman battles or alien attacks are an everyday occurrence.

This sounds amazing. I'm sold.
As a drama, I'd agree, but as a comedy, they can probably do a lot. I hope it's not set in the present like all the other marvel shows. Having cleanup scenes from prior mcu films would be great.
Someone has to collect all the Chitauris. Or Ultronbots. Or the Beast from Thor 2.
