Wasp & Friends
Since JLU went off the air, I've been looking for something to fill the void and this season both Younhg Justice and Avengers seems to fit the bill!
Though I'm not a huge fan of the animation art in Avengers, its growing on me and overall its well written. The series's "serial" approach rivals that of JLU's last season and it seems like they are stitching the episodes together to form one big saga. Voice acting is good as well, so if you're not watching, give it a try. Also hoping for more Ms Marvel later on (she cameoed in the episode "459")...
Peace

The creator has mentioned on his Twitter that Ms Marvel is one of his favorite characters, and he's being careful to introduce her to the audience right since most of the casual Marvel fans don't know her full backstory. So I think it's promising that she'll have a good focus, and possibly even join the Avengers at some point.
I wouldn't exactly call her appearance in 459 a cameo either as she was very heavily focused in the first half of the episode, just unpowered.
I'm loving this show. Young Justice looks promising too.

Overall I think it's a great show and I agree the serial styleunited with the subtle nod and cameos are doing wonders for this show.
The animation style isn't bad, but it isn't great either. Same for the voice acting, the actors are doing a fine job, but I don't like some of the matchings (especially Iron Man and Hawkeye).

That being said, the creator has still all but outright said Carol's joining the team. I think it's promising.

It's unknown whether Ms Marvel will make an appearance this season or next, buit like JimBob said, the producer has pretty much said she'll be appearing and I'll wager she'll be a team regular soon to help beef up the female side of the team (Wasp is outnumbered currently 1 female: 7 males).
Since this serie is going with the most iconic members of the Avengers the most likely girls to appear next - according to me - are:
- Ms Marvel
- Photon
- She-Hulk

Well, they could get upstaged by Black Widow and/or Mockingbird, both have which have already appeared. Of course, they're kinda slanted BW as an adversary and connected MB with SHIELD, so they might stay aligned there....
I'd settle for your three, although I think Shulkie is a LONGshot while Hulk is still on the team. Maybe Tigra?

No mention of Carol in the summaries, so she won't be getting a whole intro ep to her Ms Marvel identity if she does show up, which isn't impossible, considering they'll be needing alot of back up if the summaries are any suggestion and the show has had characters just suddenly appear by surprise before. But she could also be saved until next season, where according to the guy who keeps harping about her, the roster will get some losses and new additions.
Wasp has actually been pretty well featured I think. She's only missed one ep so far all season which is better than everyone other than Iron Man who's made at least a brief appearance. She's also been surprisingly useful. And she'll have quite a badass scene in one of the last eps accoding to the guys that saw one of them at a con as a preview.

Season 2 is going to feature the Kree vs Skrull war, which is right up Carol's alley.
And now we wait until next season.

I just watched Episode 25 and, while there's little supergirl action, I have to admit I'm impressed how good the cartoon is going.
By the way it's just me or the third valyrie along with Sif and Brunihilde looks suspiciosly like Hawkgirl. I mean look at her: red hair, mace, "beaky" helmet.

Well there you go. Ms. Marvel is joining in season 2. Check out the season 1 DVDs for more potential previews of it.
