I really liked the episode, well put together, Loki is one of the few developed Villian / Anti hero’s and it really pays off here.
Plot speculation in the spoilers

Good start. So much new world building crammed into one episode. A little awkward we get the old Loki from a decade ago but this was solved with some sped up character development.

That was way different than I was expecting, which was a more cookie cutter Marvel story not necessarily a bad thing. Will ponder for a while before I know if I liked it or loved it.

That's better than the best start for which I could have hoped. Fascinating and entertaining villain thrust right into facing their own flaws and defeats. Plus timelines and multiverse potential.
This is the first of the MCU series' I feel I've been hooked on from the beginning. Despite not ever thinking of it, Loki is a fantastic choice for a spin-off series in much the same way was Saul Goodman.

Tom Hiddleston is great.
Owen Wilson is great.
The retro-futuristic aesthetic is great.
DB Cooper is great.
Only disappointment is that Owen Wilson didn't say "Wow!"
I have 100% bought into Loki. I wanted to like Wandavision, but it took a while before I actually liked it. Same with Falcon and the Winter Soldier, to a lesser degree.
But Loki had me almost instantly.

I've watched all three of the Disney+ Marvel shows now, and think this is easily the best of the bunch.

Really like this. Really seems like that put a lot of effort into the aesthetic and tone. Overall very impressive for a tv show.

Yup they nailed the release of these Marvel shows, each one's better than the last thus far.

Super fun, loved the trivia for the infinity stones(mentioned above). I hope the alt Loki is a Lady Loki, fun twist that would be.
Plus did y'all notice Mephisto in that stain glass window?

I watched the original Avengers again on Tuesday night, and even though I remember everything it was still cool to be able to jump from that show right into Loki. It helped ground my view of him in that movie instead of Endgame and I felt like I was along the ride with the proper Loki.
I have a feeling that where 6 episodes felt like a good fit for FaWS, I think after 6 episodes of Loki I am going to be wanting more.

I was blown away by the philosophical concepts of the TVA let alone anything else with the episode.
One of the best Pilot's I've ever seen, and this will clearly be one of the best parts of the MCU! Can't wait to see where it goes

I believe in the Jays.

Loved episode one. They're gonna have to explain things more in future episodes because the time travel rules need some more explanation to square Oldman Rogers and Past Gamora running around.

I loved it. It felt like an episode of Doctor Who wandered into the movie Brazil, and then ended up in the Marvel universe. Looking forward to a real character arc for Loki, who has such potential. Intelligent, self-aware but also self-loathing, and funny. I think this may end up being the best of the original series.

Disney+ is the only one I know of, although, I'm sure there are "ways" of finding it on the internet without paying for the streaming service.
