Just wanted to clear up some stuff, here ya go:

At 54:59 I say that Christine never shows up again after Strange emails (and it is confirmed later that he sent some) but he does show up to the hospital after getting stabbed. That doesn't change the fact that he didn't care enough about her to end his entire universe though.

The time travel is actually more broken than I thought. Probably for more reasons than what I'm going to say here. But if Strange travels back, changing the past of timelines including his own and thus destroying them, that means that there is no existing future strange to travel back, that Strange will be made by the timelines playing out in real time. So how can him changing anything in the past lead to the paradox if him traveling back in the first place and deleting the part of his own timeline when he travels back doesn't?

"Christine died, its wizarding time" maybe the best line i have heard this week.

I feel like 90% of this episode's problems can be summed up with "no one knows how to write time travel to have consistent rules"

"What if doctor strange lost his heart instead of his hands"
then he'd fucking die..

- Wong, can you help me with one thing?
- Sure
- Great, grab the shovels, I'll explain on the way

The jump of "He was grieving christine, so he sought the mystic arts" is hilarious, I feel like it basically implies that anyone grieving a loved one had a decent shot at going on this journey, since this is not an uncommon situation at all.

I can't believe it, they managed to make the only original character out of character in this episode.

Honestly you could fix the plot hole of why he'd be in search of magic if his hands were damaged and Christine died. He searchs for a way to fix his hands, comes across time stone and then the thought of bringing her back rots his mind over time and boom we're back to the plot of the episode but makes sense now

3:23 worst part is that they didn’t even have to change that part, have Christine die and him barely survive injured hands just have his motivation to fix his hands and figure out how to save christine after traveling back in time

52:06 That was literally my first thought.
"Just use the time stone on her, reverse her body through time to before she died, and bingo, bango, she's not dead."

Small gripe with this video: the ancient one is saying the fact Christine dies is the absolute point. How it happens is shown to not matter and her explanation is just so that he (and we for that matter) know that his goal, no matter how he goes about it, is unattainable

My main problem with this episode is that Strange spends centuries absorbing creatures just to be barely stronger than normal Strange.

Couldn't Strange just trick his past self into thinking Christine had died?

Her death was the catalyst, but the catalyst can be switched if the replacement has the same effect.

17:41 I think the implication is that he’s absorbing being with a higher dimensionality like the Watcher? That’s what I got at least

In the movie, even after finding Camartage, Strange demonstrates that he doesn't believe in mysticism, so it makes no sense that he would turn to it with the intent to raise the dead. That had to be his goal because he would have no idea that the time stone even existed.

The thing this episode needs to fix the main issue is to say he lost his heart and his hands. So he goes down the same path but has the temptation to save Christine. Also it needs a lot better writing but that isn’t as easy

It would honestly have made much, much more sense for Christine to have been injured in some way that renders her comatose or something, so that Strange needs to save her. It combines his pride and love together - and would propel him towards a search for an unorthodox solution: the mystic arts.

But no, instead it just has to happen so it does, rather than it coming from anything that's really in the scenario.

It's wizardin' time

The watcher didn’t reveal himself to Strange Supreme he achieved cosmic awareness which enabled him to see and hear him

In other words, it's the writer trying to force a story to happen without understanding the characters or the tools that can be used to ensure the outcome they want happens.
