[7] Florida Girls and She-Hulk: Attorney at Law director Kat Coiro commented that Guggenheim and Wong’s riffing on subjects such as The Sopranos and cocktails was improvised and un-scripted, with Coiro quoted as saying "That came purely from the actors' comedic chemistry and us going, 'We've got to throw some cameras on these two because they're so funny." Coiro also commented on how frequently she has worked with Guggenheim, and why, saying "I do not go anywhere without that woman. She is a comedic genius.. she came in and auditioned for us, and everybody [watching that audition] was actually crying with laughter. Tears streaming down their faces." [8] Guggenheim's performance was praised for having ‘a quiet brilliance’ and ‘Guggenheim’s Madisynn was one of the first truly contemporary characters to enter the MCU in a while — someone who for better or worse felt real’ by TVLine who awarded Guggenheim TVLine Performer of the Week. [9]
