I've watched episodes 1 and 2 and I'm finding that I don't really care for this series yet. It's been very tedious so far. The whole time cop stuff reminds me of the same theme in the Umbrella Academy which I didn't care for either. Even the tone of the time cop shop/dimension or whatever feels like the Umbrella Academy's version as well. I'll try one more episode, but it's not something I'm finding compelling or even interesting at this point.

I felt the same way after episode 1 but have enjoyed it since then. It is one of those shows that you really have to pay attention to as there are little bits and pieces everywhere and I often don't have the best attention span for those types of shows.

Okay, I watched the third episode last night and enjoyed it a lot more. I thought the back and forth between Loki and "Sylvie" was actually very good, and was what pulled me into the episode.

I really tried with Umbrella Academy as it seems to check my boxes, but I struggled with it.

In terms of Loki, I love the characters and am enjoying the ride.

Also, I cannot be the first to make this observation. Ever wonder what Doctor Who would look like with a US Disney type budget? This gives a pretty good idea. Show up random alien planet (where of course everyone looks human) and deal with catastrophe, quirky characters, and bit of doom? If the time device was a screwdriver we would be fully there.

I'm really enjoying Loki, but this 3rd episode felt more like a filler one to me.

I agree, I still enjoyed it but felt it was more just to establish the relationship between the Loki's.

I'm guessing the TVA will get them out of there just in time and then it will become a guessing game on who betrays who at the end.

First episode was cool when I thought it would be Loki's show.

Loki just seems to playing second fiddle in his own show.

Just seems to be a 'set up' show
