Before I get into the process of breaking down the finale (and really, the entire arc the series took Loki on this season), I wanted to make it clear that the writers absolutely did right by the character with how and where he ended this season. The realization by Loki that he needs to be […]

Loki – Science/Fiction Review
Say what you will about this season of Loki (and I certainly have over my previous reviews), but you cannot say that Tom Hiddleston hasn’t left it all on the pitch this season with his portrayal of the titular character. Sure, the story has been way too centered on the mechanics of time travel rather […]
Loki – Heart of the TVA Review
Well, that was unexpected. Although, after an episode that highlighted the various ouroboros instances that have occurred throughout the series thus far (OB creating the TVA manual from Victor’s notes while Victor created his notes from the TVA manual and Loki finding his past self to prune him so that his current self could continue […]
Loki – 1893 Review
Well, that was a bit of a mixed bag of an episode. On the one hand, we finally got a better idea of just what Miss Minutes has been up to (and, as many guessed, she was indeed up to no good), along with how Ravonna Renslayer fits into the story after a couple episodes […]
Loki – Breaking Bad Review
Now that felt like the best of Loki. From the excellent character pairings (I’m really enjoying Rafael Casal’s X-5) to the not all that complex story arc within the episode (although I’m still a bit hazy on why the multiple timelines is ok when having them throws the entirety of existence into question*), “Breaking Bad” […]
Loki – Ouroboros Review
After two years and change away, the Norse god of mischief is back for more timeline jumping and pruning with season two of Loki. And considering the state of the MCU in the time that he’s been off our screens, well, his return couldn’t have come soon enough. With the series adding Oscar winner Ke […]
Pop Culture Maniacs #25: Black Widow and Loki Review
Jean Henegan and Kieran Freemantle review Black Widow and Loki Season One in the podcast.
Loki – For All Time. Always. Review
So, it was Kang the Conqueror all along! Or rather, some version of Kang who saw the devastation wrought by his own Variants and took steps to orchestrate a universe in which such chaos and destruction would be banished from existence. I was on the “There’s no way they introduce Kang on a Disney+ show!” […]
Loki – Journey Into Mystery Review
The penultimate episode of any season (or even series) is usually the key piece of the story where the show puts all its ducks in a row in preparation for the finale, where all the plot threads will be tied off into a nice little bow and we, the audience, can walk away satisfied with […]
Loki – The Nexus Event Review
If last week’s installment of Loki was all about character, “The Nexus Event” was all about plot. And with only two episodes remaining in the series, having an episode dedicated to pushing the series towards its climax was much needed – and incredibly well executed. Nothing brings me greater joy as a viewer and as […]
