Wasn't very impressed, lol'd that Gunn from Buffy was the black guy. While give it another 2-3 eps before I decide if I watch it or drop it.

Angel, not Buffy, heretic.

Was not that impressed with first episode, had 1 or 2 good parts, the rest was just fuddling around imo..Ill keep watching to hope for something better.

Oh cmon! It played out the way I expected a SHIELD based series to play out.

What did you guys want? A superhero team-up?

It's SHIELD. They introduced Extremis. Which was enough for a first ep as an extension of Ironman III, and introduced a proactive spy team.

Your standards are too high.

Yours seem to be too low.

I agree. Except I did think it would be cool to take some Heroes that don't have the option of a movie to be attached in someway. Almost in the way the pilot played out but have an actual hero introduced. This way it makes for a good episode and if people don't care much for the character they will still be "attached" to the Marvel Cinematic Universe but don't need a movie. On the flip the character could become very popular and could lead way to a movie. Either way it could be an entertaining episode. To keep it from getting to be an overused theme they could change up the formula and only do it 2-3 times a season.

I'm a devout Whedonite, but this was a decidedly average showing by Whedon standards. I'll continue to watch it in hopes that the quality improves, but right now the only thing that I care about is Chloe Bennet's breasts.

Brown people, for starters.

The second episode was better than the pilot. I'm in.

The ending made this episode. By far the best part.

The rest was still rather sub par.

second episode wasn't that impressive either despite seeing

Spoiler:
Sam Jackson

this show HAS GOT TO PICK UP and tell better stories.. I'd like to know where in the world are S.H.I.E.L.D.'S weapons at.. All I see is that this is a cop show , yet it should be more

Both episodes have been pretty good so far. I especially loved

Spoiler:
Nick Fury's guest appearance

Hacker girl is brown. And episode 2 should blow your mind. Brown people out the wazzoo.

Your standards seem limited though so why bother?

Chloe Bennett is an American woman that transferred to PRC. She's only half-brown, from a technical standpoint. And gtfo with this racist sh1t about there being no brown people.

Chloe is fine as hell. 2nd episode was better, still lacks the magic of Angel/Firefly.

I feel the same. I didn't feel they were in any real danger the whole show. I'll give it a couple more episodes and go from there.

yeah same, I will give this show until november sweeps to pick up, after that I will see

honestly you would think that since Whedon has had great success on tv, he would know better

I've noticed that whenever someone asks Coulson about Tahiti he says "It's a magical place." Could it be some kind of mental trigger?

I think he's been mind wiped and see's Tahiti as a magical place.

He could be a Life Model Decoy or a clone.....who knows.
