The longest 6 weeks ever in the History of Mankind- if you believe the Internet. This is the first Episode of...
In the wake of Endgame messing with the ending of The Avengers, Loki ends up in a strange place...The Time Variance Authority.
He's lost all control and faces punishment from a higher power for his recent misdeeds.

This version- mind you- hasn't even gotten to do future (to him) misdeeds like the ones in Thor: The Dark World and Thor: Ragnarok.
He's saved for being erased (for now) by a higher up in the TVA (Owen Wilson), who tries to understand Loki, since he needs him for a mission.

He seems to also care, which is nice.
Will Lok agree? Will he learn?
Will he achieve his dreams?

A strong, surprisingly-deep first Episode. This 'Pilot' has it all. It features The Avengers- giving you the explanation for this Loki's appearance-, a new MCU Star, a new and mysterious group and the biggest surprise Star of the whole Franchise. Just think if they had actually picked Tom Hiddleston to play Thor and not Loki- it could have happened! He's such a natural fit for this role and really gets to stretch himself here. We got cocky Loki. We get nervous Loki. We get serious Loki. We get world-weary Loki? Yeah, he gets to do more than usual. No, I won't SPOIL the context for most of this. Sufficed to say, Loki learns alot- perhaps too much. Will this strengthen him or break him? I guess we have to wait and see. Kudos to Wilson for fitting right into the MCU without having to break a sweat. He has a naturalistic approach here that works to contrast the hard Sci-Fi aspects of the Plot. I hope to see more of him in other stuff, depending on how this all plays out. The Plot gives us lots of mysteries to ponder (and make 6,042 YouTube Videos about). Will it deliver what fans are expecting this time? Let's watch and find out. Bonus shout-out to the people behind the 'Introduction' Video for new Prisoners- nice stuff...

Next time, will Loki take part in a mission...or will he just keep up his mischief. Has he really changed? See you then...
