I may prove to be wrong, but I suspect that the end of the second season marks the end of the "Loki" show on Disney Plus. I've written reviews of both seasons, which you can find against the final episodes, but I thought I'd put something here to sum it all up a bit.

As the articles again circle about the death of Marvel, they produce another season of "Loki" that I'm not entirely sure we needed, but that I enjoyed a little more than the first run.

With the Avengers accidentally giving him a route to freedom, by giving him the tesseract, fresh from his defeat in New York, Loki (Tom Hiddleston) leaps to another part of the world and looks to reestablish his glorious purpose. But soon he's arrested, not this time by SHIELD, but the Time Variance Authority. For his escape was not supposed to happen and has caused a branching reality. The TVA are here to end that branch, and to put Loki on trial. Before they can though, a TVA agent named Mobius (Owen Wilson) asks for permission to see if Loki can help him with is case, a dangerous variant who is taking out agents across the timeline.

I mean, I suppose my primary criticism would be that I'd hoped that the relationship between Loki and Mobius would flow better than I thought it did. I'd hoped for better interplay between them, sparkier dialogue than we got. I'd also hoped that, in general, the show would be funnier than it actually was. Hiddleston is a good performer and has been funny with the character several times before, and though regularly charming, it never quite clicked. It got better when Hiddleston was paired with Sophie Di Martino, played Sylvie as their female variant. (Sidebar - nice to hear another regional English accent creeping through on a Marvel show, after Erin Kellyman in TFATWS).

I liked the plot of the second season, and I enjoyed the way that they used Loki's timejumps within that, both in the first episode and in the conclusion. I liked the recreation of the 1893 World's Fair as well as the McDonalds from the 1980's. I liked the addition of Ke Huy Quan, even if perhaps his arrival relegated Sylvie to a smaller role in this run than perhaps she deserved. It has another couple of wonderful performances from Jonathan Majors in this run, which again proves unfortunate given how his future within the MCU has gone from being key, to being tenuous with the legal issues facing him.

The show ends in quite an emotional place, with what feels like a goodbye to another stalwart character, though I guess time (and money) will see whether that proves to be the case.
