Occasional Randomness #18 - Deep Dish Deception (Farscape S03E19 - Loki S02E4-6)

We're back from the end of the year holidays and vacations! We continue on with our journey through Farscape with season 3, episode 19, I-Yensch, You-Yensch, and we finish Loki season 2 with episodes 4 through 6.

On Farscape, we have a sort of an interlude story where the crew goes to con Scorpius into thinking Crichton wants to help him finish developing his wormhole technology before the Scarrans can finish theirs first. While their plan seems sound, the place they chose to have that meeting with Scorpius -- a nice, quiet, out of the way diner -- isn't very quiet afterall. But at least we now know what the episode title means. Meanwhile, Talyn's mental instability finally comes to a head and they need to handle that before Talyn destroys Moya.

Then we complete our discussion of Loki season 2. We get to learn about the real lives our main characters led before working for the TVA. And most were not as glamorous or important as you would imagine. The Temporal Loom is about to explode/has exploded as Loki timeslips over and over and over to try to work out how to keep all the branching timelines from being destroyed. Everything, literally, gets wrapped up at the end but we ponder how they could do a season 3 if they decide to go further. All in all, we think this is the best of the Disney+ MCU shows so far.
