    Solid start for the series

    Pilot episodes are always vital for a tv show's success and this first episode does not disappoint. Everything seems fluid and sets up the story and characters that will be involved in this show. I can't wait for the next episode already.

    The best episode of the MCU series run until this point

    Owen Wilson knocks it out of the part Loki never lets us down and the story line is starting off hot and heavy full of comic book magic couldn't be happier.

    • Goofs
      Loki, as DB Cooper, is shown jumping from the plane during during daylight on a clear, sunny, day. In reality, Cooper jumped in darkness (approximately 8:13 PM in late November) and during a rainstorm. Also, Cooper removed his tie and left it on the plane as evidence, and made Schaffner and the rest of the crew stay in the front of the plane while he stayed in the back, unobserved, before jumping.
    • Quotes

      [repeated line]

      Loki: I am Loki of Asgard, and I am burdened with glorious purpose.

    • Crazy credits
      At the very end of the end credit roll, Miss Minutes is heard to say "Thanks for visiting the TVA, don't hesitate to let us know how we're doing!"
