    Sorry but awful episode. The writing for Sylvie has completely deteriorated and Jonathan Majors, who normally is a very good actor, was a total misfire. I understand that he’s portraying a variant thus different mannerisms, but this was just too much and too deliberate. I honestly hated every single moment of this episode and I’m losing interest fast. The more questions they introduce without answers the less I care.

      It was really last episode that blew me away not this one (though this wasn’t good either). I normally don’t look up writers but I had to see if there was a change between season 1 and 2 because of how different it was. I would not have watched Loki if season 1 was written like this.

      I don’t even know how to describe it because I’m not usually critical of writing, but the characters seemed so one dimensional. This new hatred Sylvie has for Loki made no sense, and it seemed simultaneously super passionate and surface level. She flipped her tune in one sentence in that McDonalds scene, I had to rewatch it once or twice because I was so thrown off guard by her shift I had to see if I missed something.

      There also seem to be more places where people go way overboard on their character stereotypes (like the one who remains being unable to complete a sentence), or Sylvie being a killer with major bloodlust now after one episode ago swearing off all of this.

      I don’t know, I’m not usually a critic, I get this is probably only half coherent and half ramblings, but as a usually casual viewer the shift between season 1 and 2 was so intense.
