What We're Watching: Loki Episode 6 — "For All Time. Always"
Added 2021-07-15 05:30:00 +0000 UTCUPDATE: I had mistakenly marked this post as only available for $5+ patrons. This is why you don't upload and post when you're super tired :P Sorry about that! —MT
UPDATE 2: Also here's a link to the little diagram I made when trying to breakdown the character arcs of Loki. I don't feel 100% confident about it, but I thought it might be fun to look at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TNg-iMRi9giF_An___0-WG4nrc88AbA7/view?usp=sharing

This is the final episode in our Loki mini-series! This has been a lot of fun, and we're thinking considering doing more of these series for our $5 tier patrons—what do you think?
Do you want more of these? Are there any particular limited series shows you'd like us to talk about? Let us know in the comments, and thank you for going on this journey with us :)

Is there a way to download this and listen offline?
2022-02-26 06:16:06 +0000 UTCThe MCU really is that friend you love dearly, but who is completely unreliable. They spend a super enjoyable season in your life, yet always bail and leave you hanging with yet another IOU. Right as you begin to believe they're a part of your life, they're gone again on that old, empty promise... and you always believe them.
2021-07-22 01:59:32 +0000 UTCGuys please do more limited series stuff. Mare of easttown and it’s current ilk are prime for this. I’m thinking sharp objects, I may destroy you kind of stuff I know you’d discuss and dissect so well.
2021-07-20 22:30:27 +0000 UTCLoki put me in a weird place, and I think you guys were kinda saying this but in a different way, where each episode almost felt like its own pilot in a way? Just the sheer amount of new info each episode, every one feels like a set up for something new. And I really enjoy each "pilot," but the flip side is that it's hard to feel like real progress is being made on any given individual element. I don't know, I've had never had a show DO that before.
2021-07-20 15:56:53 +0000 UTCLoved listening to these after each episode! Thanks for doing it.
2021-07-19 15:42:20 +0000 UTCThank you for doing this "experimental" series! This is amazing, and it brings more insight while watching the show. Should be manageable for you with short series 4-10 episodes. As for the tier, it would make sense to reward higher tiers, since it is more challenging and time is scarce for you 😔.

2021-07-19 10:04:01 +0000 UTCDefinitely enjoyed the miniseries follow-along format! Would be great to do Chernobyl and Queen’s Gambit… maybe What If… too? True Detective S1… Foundation when it starts in September.

2021-07-16 04:58:54 +0000 UTCLove the idea for recent shows, Mare of Easttown for instance.
2021-07-16 01:59:53 +0000 UTCI found this episode so interesting from the point of view that the makers went big on comic lore. It's possibly the least accessible of recent Marvel creations in that regard. I watched it and was completely blown away. It was the reveal of a He Who Remains and Immortus blend and a subsequent implied release of the council of Kangs. My thoughts begun racing as to the comic book plots this opens up: Fantastic 4, Doctor Doom, Iron Lad, even the Fox X-Men in the MCU, as well as the rumoured events of Spiderman 3. Oh, and Secret Wars as the next Endgame. I geeked out and lost all capacity to analyse objectively from the moment of the big reveal. When my wife and friends watched it they had no idea what was happening...I think it was quite surprising how big Marvel leaned into prior comic knowledge for this finale.
2021-07-15 22:42:14 +0000 UTCI must confess i wasn’t particularly bothered about watching Loki but knowing there were these podcasts to listen to tipped me over the edge and I binged it in the last two days. Loved the series as a whole & want to spend more time with the world and characters, and loved the podcast series too guys, well worth the price of admission!

2021-07-15 21:58:05 +0000 UTCAgreed! With the above! This has been amazing and totally would be worth the 5 dollar tier. I'd really really love one on Watchmen myself.

2021-07-15 20:53:50 +0000 UTCI think it's a great idea to do television/miniseries for the higher-tier patrons. I'd love for y'all to tackle more long-form arcs. (Especially considering the great variety of limited series we've gotten in the past couple of years: Chernobyl, Watchmen, Queens Gambit, Normal People, Fargo, etc.)
2021-07-15 20:13:02 +0000 UTCHonestly, yeah I thought this was really fun. I was already planning on watching Loki, but I would potentially be willing to watch shows you guys cover on this series even if I wasn't previously planning on watching them.
