Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the Netflix series Ragnarok, and our listener feedback. 
This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the role emotions play on both sides as Team Giant finds itself without a solid leader, and Team Thor must contend with Magne’s decision to drop out of the fight. On the other hand, it turns out that Iman is more than up to the task of taking on the giants, and the scene at the gym stands out as a series highlight. Still, it appears that Fjor and Laurits could either join forces or square off against each other. Time will tell. 
In our What We're Watching segment, Wayne talks about revisiting the X-Men movies while Dave completes the final season of Atiye: The Gift and gets started with season 2 of the German Netflix series Biohackers.

Episode 416 Ragnarok S02E03 Power to the People

Join Dave and Wayne for genre television show news, a glimpse into what the hosts are currently watching, commentary and analysis of the Netflix series Ragnarok, and our listener feedback. 
This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we discuss the writers’ decision to kill off two main characters and the impact these deaths are likely to have on the main narrative. Now that the gods have revealed themselves, Magna’s task becomes somewhat easier, but how Laurits decides to enter the coming war proves the most difficult to predict.
In our What We're Watching segment, it turns out that we both watched the Amazon Video release of The Tomorrow War and agree that despite the criticism it’s received on the internet, it was still an enjoyable time travel movie. Wayne, however, is disappointed with The Handmaid’s Tale season finale, and Dave dives into the third season of Atiye: The Gift on Netflix.
In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands praises the CGI special effects but finds Laurits’ injection of Wotan’s blood a bit problematic. David Haworth checks in via the Facebook group and wonders whether Turid may be the elusive goddess Freya.

This week on the SciFi TV Rewatch podcast we examine the reveal surrounding Laurits’ biological father and the implications that he may, in fact, be Loki. However, all is not going smoothly for Team Giant as the family fabric disintegrates as Saxa and Ran do their best to hold things together.
In our What We're Watching segment, we agree that talking about the Netflix Icelandic series Katla should be something we address sooner rather than later. 
In Listener Feedback, Fred from the Netherlands questions whether Laurits is setting Vidar up for a fall and points out that no one at the retirement home appears to notices Wenche’s death and subsequent disintegration.
