Agents of SHIELD Season 2

[Dark Shadow]

Just got done watching "Aftershocks." More like "Afteryawns." We waited almost three months for---a snooze fest episode (and a downer at that). I know that AOS can't deliver great episodes every time, but after such a long hiatus, I think they could've come up with something a little better than that. MARVEL may be kicking DC's butt at the Box Office, but with shows like THE FLASH, ARROW, GOTHAM and CONSTANTINE, DC is winning the small screen war.

Ditto.

Better episode tonight...who do you think Bobbi & Mac are working for? My guess is Nick Fury, running some game to redo Shield behind the scenes?
Starting to see the Civil War style breakdown of the team too. And you can't complain about Lady Sif!
Next week a super villain teamup! I hope they finally call him Mr. Hyde instead of Cal, and is that Lady Deathstrike & Angar the Screamer?

Next weeks episode does have Mr. Hyde and Angar the Screamer but that is all I can figure out.

[jwyblejr]

Too bad that Kree guy had to cover up his blueness.

[jwyblejr]

Great. Now whenever I see those AAG Reverse Mortgage ads I yell "Hail Hydra".

[johnnystorm]

Angar the Screamer was pretty cool, but geez, Kyle Mac! Overact much? This isn't an episode of Batman66! I half expected to see Coulson hanging over a giant vat of boiling candle wax!
They took down the baddies too quick I think.
I gotta wonder about this new villain, Levi. I'm thinking he's the Fixer.

I tried. I really tried, but this show...when it becomes an effort to watch something, I tap out.

I could tear it apart on every level, but it really boils down to two parts. The producers stink and Coulson is the worst leading man I've ever watched. The guy's a solid actor, but he's strength is in his comedic timing.

I think what happened, was AoS was founded on the original treatments for Damage Control that stalled out in development and they just reshaped it into SHIELD for the movie synergy.

Now, they're trying to correct course and make it Alias 2, but that showed had Garner playing dressup every week to stare at, so I have a feeling that's where we're headed with Palecki; the new star working for the "real SHIELD"...and all the originals are killed off or simply written out.

If Whedon really is bailing on the Avengers franchise, then the loyalty to his family as AoS show runners is going with him. If Marvel Knights erupts to applause, they'll take over AoS whether it stays on ABC or moves to Netflix.

[jwyblejr]

He's a Cylon!. Oops. Sorry. I'm just so use to Edward James Olmos being in Galactica.

[enyawd72]

It stinks. It really, truly stinks. Doesn't help that it comes on right after the Flash either.

After watching an hour of a comic book series done so incredibly well, it makes SHIELD suck even more. A while back I said the same thing as Hedrap...Coulson is great in small doses but cannot carry a show, and the rest of the cast are equally bland.

I literally do not care what happens to anyone on this show.

I really liked Hyde's gang of freaks, wish they wouldn't have broke up the band so quick. Riding around in a Winnebago terrorizing from town to town,

Kinda like the old David Banner Hulk show, only in reverse. Picture sad Hyde thumbing his way out of town to the sad walk in' away music...

[boss]

I liked this week's episode. The previous few weeks... meh.

[monitor_ep]

I never expected much at of this show from the beginning. It is a filler for the Marvel Cinematic Universe for a few factors:

*Fill in the months there is not movie out

*To help develop the MCU story line

*To try out new characters

I am happy we had Deathlok, Mockingbird, and other Marvel Character show up in the series. It is better than iZombie who rewrote nearly everthing out and made it a cop show.

[johnnystorm]

Another episode where stuff happens...and yet nothing happens. I will say Edward Olmos' character is VERY unlike able and I hope he turns out to be Hydra so May can shoot him.

[jwyblejr]

Nah. I told you he's a Cylon.
