Quick everyone! Let's rush to defend Disney based on a technicality, even though they've been creatively bankrupt for years and no one watches MCU shows.

Loki is a legitimately good show, and I say that as someone tired of MCU stuff and not the least nostalgic about American comics in the first place (I grew up on Asterix, Tintin, the like).

I'd even go so far as to say it's my favorite MCU show. I remember liking season 1 alot so I had high expectations for season 2. And I think they exceeded my expectations. Ke Huy Quan was delightful as OB and Tom Hiddleston & Owen Wilson had so much chemistry. Can't wait for the next episodes.

You can still think Disney is a shitty company while acknowledging that this is a stupid article/headline. They're not mutually exclusive.

And let's automatically assign blame with no evidence at all, based on the fact that you don't like the company.

The MCU shows (not you, Secret Invasion) have been the best thing they've put out over the past few years. I am speaking as an MCU addict.. can't really call myself a fan since the films mostly suck these days but I'll still watch em... yo ho ho
