Loved Loki season 1. Season 2? Gave up after episode three, thought the writing was execrable.

It didn't get better. The season finale was OK but that was the only actually "meaningful" episode. The way it's done, you could just watch the finale and be on the same page as everybody else. The show is so repetitive.
Thanks for the tip. Yeh. I the episodes I saw felt like there was a lot of padding
There was, but I couldn't tell if it was because of "rewriting" Kang out or not. He was still in it, but it seems like possibly in a diminished fashion and sheerly out of necessity. Or, maybe it wasn't at all and this was just the plan.
Either way, it was a mess. Plotlines dropped, very little character motivation among pretty much everyone, and the implications of needing to care about all the timelines without actually showing any of them - I guess we saw enough of that in S1 or something - all while the characters are saying they don't care about them, but probably should do something, and now they care again yay...
It was all just contrived pseudo-scifi-babble very little of any of which actually meant anything, rinse and repeat. If you don't mind a spoiler - Guess what? After you stopped watching, they failed and it didn't matter. All of it, literally everything you watched, was for nothing and was pointless.
Great writing. Just sooooo, so good. //////////ssssasssss
I think it needs a several year long pause then a complete slow reboot where they only do like 1 or 2 films the first year for the next story without any callbacks or connections to the previous entries.
I think people are tired of the current continuity and that's leading to a big feeling of things feel so repetitive. A bunch of average new entries to an already dragged out timeline kills hype.
