I find almost anything Marvel and Disney have done lately is pretty awful with the exception of Andor. They're too formulaic, do nothing but lead into the movies, and are quite literally made for a safe audience. Loki at least tries, and it's different than "Disney" for sure, but at the end of the day it's nothing like the great shows on TV.

I just finished it this weekend, and I thought it was a wonderful send off to Tom Hiddleston.  He played the true Loki variant well, and ended up being very un-Loki.  It also gives Marvel an easy out for Jonathan Majors (which sucks that he's such a poo person because he's a joy to watch on screen) as Kang.

Was it super strong?  That's up to the individual, but I did enjoy it.  Season 1 was better, but it's much harder to write an ending than the beginning/middle of a story.

I just finished this as well.  It's still one of the best Marvel shows. I don't think any of them have been "bad" but it's just fatigue.  Secret Invasion is probably the worst one IMO, what a snoozefest.  

there is definitely fatigue.  It's just too much.  That said, Loki is top notch Marvel.   I also thought I would hate Owen Wilson being injected into this show but it ended up being great.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.
