Loki: Watch Miss Minutes Explain Time Loops

Loki is finally back, and the first episode of the second season picked up right where the season one finale left off. A lot of fan-favorite characters are returning this season, including Miss Minutes, the animated talking clock who assists the TVA and is voiced by Tara Strong. This week, Marvel Studios has been releasing new instructional videos starring Miss Minutes. We’ve seen her warn about the dangers of the butterfly effect and share some TVA tech tips. Now, Miss Minutes is back to explain what you should do if you get stuck in a time loop.

“Trapped in a time loop? You’ll get over it, with time. Marvel Studios’ Loki Season 2 is now streaming on @DisneyPlus,” Marvel captioned the video. You can check it out below:

Tara Strong on Voicing Miss Minutes:

“It was so fun, because I didn’t know we were going to go there,” Strong previously explained to Marvel.com about voicing Miss Minutes in season one. “So initially, [the character is] exposition. It’s explaining what happens to you with a little bit of attitude and this little cutesy stuff, even though there’s very dire things happening. And then you see that she actually does have a horse in this race, you see that she actually may be sentient, may care about what’s happening. She becomes angry, feels real human emotion, and then you start to wonder, ‘Oh my god, who is she? And how does she have access? How is she there at the end? How does she relate to the Time Keepers?’”

“Early on in the scripts, we all were definitely united on, ‘We’ve got to keep Miss Minutes in the story somehow,’” season one director Kate Herron added. “[Miss Minutes should be] that devil on the shoulder and trying to tempt both Loki and Sylvie. It was fun that you got a sense of there’s something a bit more sinister going on here with her. We always had a version where [Loki and Sylvie] kept meeting her at the Citadel. At one point, we had a fight scene with Miss Minutes in the Citadel; we had all kinds of stuff [for her].”

“She was a really fun way to deliver some pretty heady exposition,” head writer Michael Waldron shared. “There’s something sing-songy and sort of non-threatening about [the way she talks]. But yet, when it turns, and when she becomes evil, suddenly it’s really scary.

What Is Loki Season 2 About?

Marvel Studios fan-favorite Tom Hiddleston stars in Loki Season 2, returning as the titular God of Mischief for another round of time-traveling hijinx on Disney+ on October 6th.
