After more and more viewers have seen the pilot of Moon Knight, it is starting to pick up steam, and its audience scores are tied for the highest of any Disney Plus MCU series to date. It may drop in time, but here's how things are right now.
The Moon Knight had a score of 94%.
What if?
It was 91%.
Hawkeye had a score of 91%.
WandaVision had an 81% success rate.
The Winter Soldier and the Falcon are 85%.
Moon Knight has gained points from where it was previously, and it has now passed Falcon and the Winter Soldier in terms of critic reviews, when previously it was last:

I have heard that the pilot is better than the next few episodes that follow, though I have not seen any of them. This does not seem to be amiss, as every single series being above 85% approval for both critics and audiences is a win, and echoes the consistently well reviewed MCU.
There will be a lot of new shows, including Ms. Marvel, Secret Invasion, She-Hulk, and others. I'm not sure if Moon Knight will get a second season, but I'd be surprised if they told his entire story in six episodes. I think Moon Knight will be important in setting up Doctor Doom for the future, but we need more than one episode to prove that theory. Things seem to be moving in that direction.
Moon Knight is the only series that has no anchors in the existing MCU. All the other series had actors, characters or voicework from existing MCU properties that were spun off into a series, but Moon Knight and Isaac are starting from scratch, and still doing a good job of it. We will see what this week's episode brings on Wednesday.
