WandaVision, arguably Marvel’s best Disney+ series so far, originally had 10 episodes planned before one was cut.
With Agatha All Along basically being a sequel to WandaVision the show has once again been in the spotlight, after it wowed audiences with its production value, innovative storytelling and impact on the ongoing MCU story.

But apparently we could have had more, as while the show aired with nine episodes there were originally supposed to be 10.

The show’s creator Jac Schaeffer confirmed in an interview that 'WandaVision' was originally 10 [episodes], then, for logistical, budget, and creative reasons, we combined two episodes."
This was then expanded upon by the director Matt Shakman, who said “things were constantly changing and getting rebroken. The story was changing, especially a lot of the real-world stuff and the finale.
“There was a lot of experimentation going on and sort of trying different things out. We also at one point had 10 episodes planned and we ended up collapsing a couple, you know just to make the rhythm feel a little bit better."
It’s unknown where the extra episode was supposed to air, but with Shakman alluding to it changing the way the finale played out it would have likely fallen into those last three episodes.

Other aspects of the show were cut as well, including a cameo from Doctor Strange which would have tied into the battle between the two characters in Doctor Strange: Multiverse Of Madness.
Regardless WandaVision is still an excellent show, and it’s seemingly getting another sequel in the form of VisionQuest when it eventually releases, as the story will follow the new, white Vision as he presumably attempts to regain more of his memories/personality.
Hopefully we see Wanda and Vision reunited one day, as the couple deserve their happy ending after all they’ve been through.
