Marvel constantly does Loki a disservice. In the movies they made him this annoying funny guy who dies multiple times, gets caught in his lies and then done away with several times. Its beyond annoying.

I was so very impressed with Toms performance of Loki in the first Thor movie. It was incredibly dramatic and maybe even "shakespearian." Why is it that Wanda's backstory was explored in her series but Loki's wasnt? How did he go about coming to terms with the fact that hes half frost giant? What ab his raging indignation and hatred for Thor? Glorious Purpose theme should have expanded for at least 3-4 episodes, giving us a little more depth into his dramatic background, familial betrayal and conflict. It also should have elaborated just how powerful and convincing his lies and magic are since he is the GOD of mischief even if the time gods prove that none of it matters. Everyone else's powers and potentials were elaborated on, why not Loki? His character is seriously downplayed.

The last four episodes should then have centered around the TVA plot. The stupid a$$ romance with his own self ("sylvie") is again stupid and makes no sense. They had an opportunity to add Verity as his best friend or teased a romance with her just to satisfy the audience and I was disappointed. To me Sylvie is like Jar Jar Binks. Unnecessary. Instead of a tacky romance with himself he should have found his true love and glorious purpose in some form of reconciliation with himself and his family. Maybe he does this in the end (?), but I couldnt even finish the last 2 episodes bc the show was THAT bad.

Aside from above reasons, sometimes the acting was just terrible, so bad that it made a talented guy like Tom look like a nearly tired 40-year old man on the set of a childish alien invading, straight to dvd movie....no seriously! The choreography was bad, as was some of the script, the world-building/CG effects were atrocious and the cast wasnt very likeable. Like, I DONT want to see any of these people again, and that may include Loki.

I knew this show was going to be bad bc Loki is like a mascot in the MCU, a troublesome thing that eventually cheers for Thor and is there only for comic relief. They try to add some "glorious purpose" to Loki with this show but its like someone else on here said, Loki is just an advertisement for the more important characters like Wanda, Strange and Spiderman

Its a no from me. Sorry!
