    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:

    Have 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…

        spoiler

        Miss Minutes shows Renslayer a recording (which appears like a tiny live-action diorama, kind of a cool effect I thought) of He Who Remains (HWR) talking to Renslayer, except she’s in a hunter uniform instead of a judge’s uniform. The recording shows that Renslayer used to be at the right hand of HWR. After Renslayer heads back to the TVA, HWR has Miss Minutes activate “Protocol 42” to erase the memories of everyone working at the TVA, including Renslayer.
