What are your expectations for the Loki series?

So I finally got around to watching this.   A few thoughts...

 

1.  SO as I'm watching, I'm thinking... OK when Captain America goes back and lives out his life with Agent Carter, that totally screws up the time line.  SO this TVA should be all over that... which is great, because while Cap going back was great for the movie ending of endgame... it really does need fixed.   And here's their chance to fix it.  (didn't happen)

2.  During Black Widow, Red Guardian kept talking about that time he fought Captain America in the 80s.  Here's a show with time travel that could have given us a hit on how/why that actually occurred.  (didn't happen)

3.  In the season finale when they get to the final guy, I was thinking up all kinds of ideas of how it could connect to the rest of the MCU and be great.  My favorite idea was that the guy in the Castle would in fact, be Captain America... who was actually stuck in a loop STILL trying to fix the timeline after returning the stones.  The TVA was his creation in an attempt to hold everything together.  Dr. Strange could have also been in the castle and filled this role by trying to hold onto the "one" path to beat Thanos.  (neither of these happened, and what we got instead was disappointing compared to what I had guessed).

The final guy is the big bad for the next series of MCU movies.  Basically the new Thanos.

Or maybe...

Spoiler

Or maybe Cap did the time shuffle after Sylvie broke the timeline?  Remember Loki entered the TVA after the events of the Battle of New York, and while the TVA could travel in all time, we're seeing the events play out from that Loki's perspective (and the MCU timeline, at least for the moment).  So Cap's time jump occurs at the end of the events of Endgame, which is a decade after the Battle of New York. 

 

Also, and this is an oft-debated issue, we never learned the name of the father of Peggy's children.  It may have been Steve Rogers taking the long way around but hiding in the shadows to keep from disrupting the timeline too much.  I know the Russo brothers said it was a different timeline, but they've been contradicted by the script writers.  So even the creators are not 100% sure yet.
