What about compared to the first season? Is it anywhere close?

It was underwhelming compared to season one, which upped the ante which each episode. It overly relies on a MacGuffin which is kind of boring. They certainly followed HWR's words to the letter, "you can't get to the end until you've been changed by the journey" and so on. Unfortunately, said journey was a lot less riveting than season one's. It may be harsh but the five first episodes felt like filler to me.

The finale however, really picks up the pace and delivers a memorable and a worthy conclusion.

I feel like S2 episodes 2 and 3 were particularly bad. "Filler" definitely feels like the appropriate word, S2E3 in particular felt to me like it was heavily padded out. The finale really saved the season, no matter how you slice it.

Also, I'm disappointed that my personal fan theory didn't pan out:

spoilerHave Renslayer turn out to be a female Kang variant. Could've made for an interestingly parallel with Sylvie and Loki, and would explain why He Who Remains trusts her with so much. We didn't actually see Renslayer die though, so maybe...
