Happy Endings Up until now, WandaVision has been majorly paying tribute to sitcoms that have enjoyed a long run. So, imagine our surprise when its opening credits began in the style of the 2011 show, ABC's Happy Endings , which got a mere three seasons before being cancelled (something its fans are still pretty miffed about).
