He’s producing garbage television in heaven now... *sheds tear*
You are able to write your comment because of the historical records/accounts available to you. It sounds as though you have made peace with humanity’s inhumanity.
I love all three of these actresses but nothing about the commercials or reviews for this made me want to watch it at all. Even commenters here who watched it regularly mostly said it was fine at best and very uneven. Here’s hoping they all get more interesting gigs next time around.
i watched the first season and i felt like it very much couldn’t decide what it wanted to be- black comedy or mostly serious crime drama. And thus it swung wildly from one tone to the other, to the detriment of both.
I think both these dance creators and you seriously overestimate the amount of money most people are making on Tik Tok.
Dude, it’s TikTok, not a cure for cancer. Get a grip. The whole site could be nuked and there would be exactly zero net change in what is actually going on in the real world.

She said strong minds are still active and conscious when she probes them. So the broken trinket might just be a detail Loki’s mind added to the “simulation”, and Sylvie had to run with it.
My running theory is that Mobius is a literal variant of Owen Wilson. They erased his memories of life as a hard-working Hollywood B-lister, but not his love of hillbilly recreational vehicles or a good salad-n-diet-coke lunch.
The problems with that are:
a) The broken TemPad, a detail that Sylvie would neither need nor want to add to the illusion.
b) Sylvie actually loses consciousness on the train; we’re following her in that moment of waking up, not Loki.
So the first episode is ‘the one in which they talk and talk and nothing happens and the comedy isn’t strong enough to redeem the infodump’ and the second one is ‘more infodump and so dull I switched off after barely 10 minutes and still have to watch the rest’ and this one is only ‘hald an episode???’ Marvel TV…
“Instead of feeling tangible and tactile, it just seems like Hiddleston and Di Martino are running around in circles in front of a green screen.”
I think something was rushed. The FX in a few places didn’t quite look finished and there were green screen shots that just looked unfinished and hurried.
The building is either a clue he pocketed a time stone or that this is all an illusion. I could see him being cavalier about everything when he knows he can just rewind it all.
I don’t think time moves in the TVA headquarters, hence everyone is functionally immortal, except when they go on their short missions.
At the moment, I suspect a big part of it is the fact that it’s a very pandemic filming friendly format. If you can do the work with a couple of characters talking while not actually having to be super close to one another?
“It has everything. Lasers, artificial birthing chambers, tiny little cherubs with huge heads that look like Uatu The Watcher, and a Galactus cloud that look like a twerking Jack Black if you squint hard enough.”
Why does every Marvel show have to have an episode like this, one that’s just doing exposition at the camera? If there’s anything to improve on these shows, it’s the writers’ assumption their audience is really dumb. It dragged down WandaVision, it dragged down Falcon & Winter Soldier, and it dragged down this.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought they totally whiffed that big “one-take” action scene at the end, lol. If your big choreography sequence requires both leads to stop dead in the middle of the street for like half a minute, for no discernible reason, while a literal apocalypse is happening around them you…
