I think the biggest mistake the show did was making it so clear who's a Skrull and who's real so early on. A secret invasion like this needs paranoia and hopelessness and I just didn't feel that.

Yup, I like a lot of the performances in this show (a testament to the quality of actors that marvel has been able to pull in to these things) but the overall plotting, themes and structure was a complete mess.

Shape-shifting skulls! Exciting! But we'll almost never use this!

They can be anyone they want! But they'll just keep to the same form 99% of the time for vague reasons!

No-one knows who to trust But they they'll make no effort to try and figure who's a skrull even once they know that their blood is a different colour. But that's fine, because the skrulls won't try and trick anyone too much.

Total waste of a premise.

Exactly! They should have been changing into different people all the time. Even within the Skrulls. Like I feel like Gravik should have been spying on his people in different forms, he obviously didn't trust them all. Terminator 2 had more suspense and paranoia with just 1 shapeshifter.
