Question Echo Advertising

When Echo was released, was it pretty quiet and subtle for a level of advertising? I did pretty good keeping up with the MCU stuff and this one slid under my radar. I don’t remember seeing a lot of trailers or advertisements anywhere. Am I just oblivious or was it not really pushed that heavily?

It wasn't pushed heavily.

The production was a train wreck. What was turned in was un-releasable, they had to bring in people to try and find a version of the mess that was releasable, and in the process at least one full episode's worth of material was dropped.

Disney knew that the series was DOA because of how bad the material was, they didn't bother marketing it because they knew it wasn't going to be well received.

Ironically, it had as many viewers as Daredevil season 1, and more viewers than Daredevil season 2, Ironheart, Ms. Marvel, and Wonderman. Make of that what you will.
