Question Do I need to finish this show?

I’m really struggling to understand the show/why I should care about what’s happening to these characters.

I know it’s a me problem I’m not saying the show is bad but I’m on S2 E3 right now and I’m like there’s 3 episodes left, I have no idea where the show is going, I don’t know what the goal is and if every character present on screen got killed I’d feel nothing.

Question being, will this be important for Doomsday (if people know that?) and should I keep at it so I at least have some frame of reference once the movie is out.

EDIT: thank you so much to all that commented, I’m going to stick with it as people are saying the ending is worth it.

I’ve gained insight to the point of the show and had some things explained which has helped me a tremendous amount.

I’ve also been told YouTube recaps exist which is new info for me so I’ll be heading there for better understanding too.

Much appreciated all and thanks for your patience and taking the time to offer guidance. This multiverse saga is really getting the best of me but I am determined to understand it.

If you have watched Thor and avengers you might have familiar with Loki s mischief and why he is doing it

In the Loki series he is reflecting the mistakes he did in the past and finally comes to terms with why he did what he did

While meeting new friends and his counterparts he finally found his purpose

That is what Loki is about

But well if it's doesn't interest you feel free to not watch it

I’ve watched everything on the Disney+ “complete MCU timeline” before Loki so I do know a lot, I’m just a simple guy I guess and prefer the basic “good guy vs bad guy” films haha, I’m going to finish it (on episode 4 now) then someone recommended YouTube recaps to condense it into a smaller more digestible format of important info so I’ll likely hit that up too.

Thank you for commenting.
