Sorry Hector, Michael Waldron didnt write season 2, and there have been reports that chunks of his season 1 were rewritten. Eric Martin is the credited writer on S2.
Regarding Adam's comment on how Loki seems to be a consistent story without rewrites or reworking ... I recall reading a couple months back that Loki S2 had NO reshoots or rewrites. The story on screen is exactly how the writers originally set it out.
That’s amazing and it also means the leadership in the show is really good . Tom is one of the producers . I wonder how involved he is . While he seems to be a decent guy overall , he doesn’t strike me as having any patience with incompetence. JMO
Man…. Y’all don’t understand how happy I was to hear the strike ended. I immediately thought of you guys. Then you drop exactly the reaction I wanted. Welcome back gentleman.
Watching this reaction after having watched the entire series, it's crazy to hear all the theories and predictions they have, knowing that almost all of them are wrong. Just shows how this show was totally unpredictable for pretty much every major plot point. Terrific writing.
Technically, Waldron just conceptualises the series but Eric said in an interview I think, that after Waldron left for MoM during the pandemic, Eric Martin has to rewrite most of the first season and write a fresh draft of the second season. So, ethically, it's all Eric Martin and he did a damn good job!
Good to have the boys back! Eric Martin wrote this episode (has a writing credit on all 6eps) and is the S2 showrunner not Michael Waldron. Benson & Moorhead now seem to be Feige's go-to directing duo having now directed episodes of Moon Knight, Loki and now the new Daredevil show. Wouldn't be surprised if they end up directing a movie as well.
They're gonna be the new Russos and Gunn of this Saga. They did an amazing job directing this series! And Martin's writing was great too! Can't wait for finale!
I'm so happy you're reacting to this! I watched today the last episode and it was EPIC. For me Loki 2 is the best of Marvel. I'm not kidding. Endgame wasn't even close. I didn't have those kind of emotions in years.
I missed watching your guy's videos! Tbh it's been kind of exhausting being apart of this fandom recently. While I am enjoying all the new Marvel content we're getting and I'm excited to see where the MCU is heading, seeing all the negative reactions and complaints from fans all the time is kinda sucking the fun out of it. Like recently, I noticed the tone of some of New Rockstars' content sort of shifting that way unfortunately. Catering to the angry fans. Like in Erik Voss' latest Invincible breakdown he went on this random tangent essentially dragging the entire MCU for no reason, and I won't lie, I was disappointed by that. That's why I've always appreciated your guy's channel! You always manage to find the positives in these movies and shows, and when you do have critiques, it always feels fair. Apologies for the long rant lol, its good to have you guys back!
Literally after watching every episode of Loki i was searching the channel for reaction and was disappointed not to see the video, hey but finally happy to see you guys 😀
After just finishing the Loki finale I got to come and see yall uploaded this and it makes me happy. Watching you watch episode 1 of season 2 was so entertaining.. and I hope you enjoy the rest of the season and I will enjoy yall watching it. :)
When you sat out in solidarity, I commented that we'd be here for you when you came back. AND HERE WE ARE. So happy to have my favorite channel back! Let's go!
I FREAKING missed you guys!!!!!! I just watched the finale. You guys are gonna be BLOWN AWAY can’t wait to see your guys reaction. Much love hope to see more podcast episodes in the future as well.
Writers and actors got theirs, I'm so gladddd!! I genuinely hope y'all continue with the Ghibli/Anime stuff, but this is also just a treat to see again.
I also binged season 1 leading right into season 2 and what stood out the most to me was the immediate difference in how the two seasons looked. Season 2 has this beautiful 70s film grain look to it and feels very lived in… almost like it was shot on film.
I think it was both time and multiverse jumping. Remember, the statues of the Time Keepers were replaced with Kang after Sylvie killed He Who Remains (or after they passed threshold). At that point, I think the timeline branching also affected the TVA where you had at least two TVAs where in one, Kang proxied the Time Keepers as overseers of the TVA, and the other where Kang was the TVA's direct overseer. Loki was brought back to the TVA when B-15 and Mobius were arguing over what to do over the timeline branching, and we are led to believe that it had never been that bad before. Loki was also time slipping between past, present and future. I think Sylvie's decision, and/or the threshold, had that bad a repercussion.
I've been catching up on your old reactions, and I just finished your Loki season 1 reactions, and holy hell did you guys reach for so many things that didn't happen. I'm going to be very interested in going back to your reviews for various movies that have come out and hearing your thoughts, as well as seeing your reactions to this season and seeing how the S2 finale leads to literally everything in the Marvel Multiverse, from simple multiversal stories like What If...?, No Way Home, and Multiverse of Madness, to full on separate universes told outside the MCU.

So glad to have you guys back!!!

I'm from the future and I just watched the finale. It's a masterpiece. I'm blown away.
This season was so amazing! How could he prune himself in the back though?

That lightbulb moment for Hector at 11:49 was hilarious. Drawing an Ouroboros in the air - Loved that
I didnt realize the hole in my routine but here we are. Glad to have you boys back in our lives
Time slipping, it's okay, Loki is USED TO FALLING FOR THIRTY MINUTES
Welcome back my guys! Perfect timing for finale
This was perfect to fill up time before the finale tonight!!!!

They absolutely need to be given more MCU work now that Gunn seems to have moved on
This first episode felt like a series finale.
hector be transmitting from the land at the end of time
Massachusetts is basically at the end of time.
❤ but also then what is central jersey then@@HeroesReforged
YOU GUYS WERE MISSED. Welcome back boys and thank you so much for taking time to put all of this backlog, delicious content on the channel. 😊🙏🏻
The way Loki conveys his genuine terror about He Who Remains......wow. And OB absolutely stelas the show
Boys….TH-cam has not been the same since y’all have been gone. So good to have y’all back

Hector: 👁️👄👁️👌
Literally after watching every episode of Loki i was searching the channel for reaction and was disappointed not to see the video, hey but finally happy to see you guys 😀
It's really fun to come back to this on the heels of the series finale. A true ouroboros!
Loki didn't prune himself (per se). He dropped the pruner when he time slipped.
We missed you guys!!!!
So glad you guys are back, and thank you so much for standing with SAG and the WGA!! It means a lot to them!
Glad to have you guys back. Missed you! ❤
Oh I can't wait for more Loki reactions from you three. It's going to get wild. 😅
Finally! I’ve missed your reactions all season, can’t wait to see episode 6
After just finishing the Loki finale I got to come and see yall uploaded this and it makes me happy. Watching you watch episode 1 of season 2 was so entertaining.. and I hope you enjoy the rest of the season and I will enjoy yall watching it. :)
Welcome back! Glad that you are now reacting to Loki season 2 and you are in for a treat!🙌🏻
"I need a Loki Who Remains."
Now that's how you do foreshadowing. 👏
When you sat out in solidarity, I commented that we'd be here for you when you came back. AND HERE WE ARE. So happy to have my favorite channel back! Let's go!
I FREAKING missed you guys!!!!!! I just watched the finale. You guys are gonna be BLOWN AWAY can’t wait to see your guys reaction. Much love hope to see more podcast episodes in the future as well.
You guys are not ready for the finale! Loved the reaction.
Finally I can watch you watching loki 😂❤
Yay I’m so happy to see you boys back!!! ❤❤❤
I completely forgot about this channel despite the fact it's my favorite channel. I'm so glad y'all are back!
"Maybe OB's a villain..." simultaneous "No."s had me laughin'!!
I just realized on a rewatch of this episode that Ouroboros says, "WOW!" two times when he sees Mobius (Owen Wilson) 😆
Welcome back! You have been SOOOO missed!
Writers and actors got theirs, I'm so gladddd!! I genuinely hope y'all continue with the Ghibli/Anime stuff, but this is also just a treat to see again.
Aw hell yeah! Excited to see y'all back!
I MISSED U GUYS!!!! 🥰🥰🥰 Welcome back!! Let’s have some Fun 🤩👏👏
Es bueno saber que están de vuelta, no tienen idea de cuánto tiempo esperé esta reacción, justo a tiempo. Gran trabajo, como siempre.
You guys just don't know how much I missed your presence! TH-cam is alive again! Yey!
The guys are back!!!!! And Hector is playing a tiny violin the entire episode. Nice!
They're back, alright!
Welcome back, fellas, and fair play for sticking to your guns until the very end of the strike.
Happy to have the Chexicans back!
Where HAVE you been!? Beds empty, no note, car gone! You could have DIED!
Welcome back!
I also binged season 1 leading right into season 2 and what stood out the most to me was the immediate difference in how the two seasons looked. Season 2 has this beautiful 70s film grain look to it and feels very lived in… almost like it was shot on film.
"I need a Loki that Remains" they told us from the start :D
Broxton is where J. Michael Straczynski's run on Thor temporarily relocated Asgard.
Finally finally.... my fav reactors reacting to my fav Marvel show

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, The Goonies, and Everything, Everywhere All at Once.
