I figure I'd get started with a place to talk about this season.
As a recap, I thought S1 was quite solid....especially considering what we've gotten from Disney/Marvel since.
SPOILERS: Second season starts with the ep Ouroboros, the name of one of the characters introduced, portrayed by ever lovable Ke Huy Quan(but I barely understand what he says).
My quick impression is that it feels like a filler ep. Keep people busy with a manufactured crisis and it looks like something is happening but in reality there's little ground covered considering it's a first ep of the season.

I guess there's not much interest in this show. Is anyone watching?

I guess there's not much interest in this show. Is anyone watching? I was kind of waiting for them all to drop. Then again, I haven't gotten around to Andor either. LOL. Or Ms. Marvel. And no plans to watch She-Hulk. Feels like there's too much that I have to watch on the TV shows to know what's happening in the films and it shouldn't be that way. But, what with the story that Marvel is actively considering nuking most of the MCU, I'm not completely sure if it'll still matter.

Even if it isn't it feels like that.

Will binge the last three when the final episode drops tonight. I've found that, with REALLY timey-wimey stuff, I track things much better watching it in larger pieces.
First three were pretty good, though I have to say, I'm still sore at Sylvie for setting all this in motion in the first place and I had no idea that Ms. Minutes was crazy, but it was all pretty entertaining and I like that Loki's redemption will probably never quite end--because that's sort of the way it's supposed to be.
Looking forward to the last three.

I very much liked this. OB was fun, and, if this is how Hiddleston goes out, it fits. Loki got everything he ever wanted: a throne to sit upon and glorious purpose.
Just not the way he wanted it.
On a more meta note, if Marvel wants to do this---this is the perfect---and I mean the PERFECT platform with which to completely dump everything Kang related.

I'm kinda surprised at how almost sidelined Kang was overall. OB seemed to have had about the same impact or more on the show than Kang. I did think OB was going to end up being a Kang variant of sorts. He could still be for all we know.

And, I'm not sure if this is true, but it wouldn't shock me, but I've heard that there was some last episode, post-credit Kang scenes and they were deliberately cut.
