Flash has some really stupid things in it, like Barry not using his powers right or like last night where everyone was dumb concerning the shapeshifter. Some of the goofiness can go over the top too. I also find the Iris plot and the whole character to be very frustrating. Shield is pretty much firing on all cylinders right now.
Agent Carter was also excellent.

After watching the beauty that was Daredevil, I don't wanna waste my time with MAoS. It's a good show, but personally it never brings me much happiness or excitement.
Its unfair to compare other shows to Daredevil. 😄
Yeah, it's really weird Skye could defeat all those guards without her powers. The episode could have been over budget with all its effects already but a wave effect can't cost that much.
The only thing I didn't like was the Jemma stuff, it just seemed like a rushed character arc. Like we have seen her dark side here and there but in this episode she went full on and the pay off was kinda weak.
That episode was amazing. That Skye fight was amazing and so was her Sonic burn. Also "I'm still glad I shot you". ****ing incredible.
Oh man, and Stone Cold Simmons was awesome. And Fitz bragging was adorable. The best was Coulsons mike-drop at the end. Love that smug prick. I could just gush over this episode.
LoL, you people. Sky just needs to die already, she's become a ridiculous character. Goes from being a whiny hacker with dubious alliances who's looking for her father (which was fine) to a whiny ******* with super-powers (was annoying) to a super-powered super-agent.
Did like having Ward back, one of the better characters of the show.
Ward seems interesting if you don't think about it too hard. Try to scrutinize his decisions, and you'll quickly get lost in a bunch of contradictory tendencies and actions. Characters evolve, yes, but he's been all over the place.
I actually much prefer how they've slow played various changes in some of the other characters, like Gemma.
Colson name-dropping Fury and swaggering off to talk to Hill was pretty hilarious though. Coulson is one of those characters that I consistently love as a comic fanboy, even while realizing that he's not the deepest nor the most interesting of the bunch. Lots of random badassery though.
I dunno if the AoU tie-in is going to seem natural or forced. But the season's been interesting enough, while not quite matching the fever pitch of season 1's latter half. So I'm sated.
Didnt expect that ending in most recent episode.
Also, Mack used to be a real likable dude. Now he is some angry, no charisma, shell of his former self more concerned about throwing tantrums and lashing out at Coulson for a stupid reason that even he doesn't make too clear.
He survived just fine. The other members of coulsons team have gone thorough the same or worst and they dont act like a baby about their experiances like he does.
Good ridance. He should have died instead of tripp.
Looks like they're banking on a Season 3, given a couple of the lead-ins and cliffhangers. Or if there's no Season 3, the very last scene becomes unintentionally hilarious.
I didn't like
Spoiler:
how quickly they're putting Fitzsimmons back together. There was an actual rift between them, and knocking down those barriers more methodically would have seemed more believable
Also, just curious,
Spoiler:
how was that supposed to be the setup for the Morse/Hunter spinoff series? I thought it would give them a plotline to follow or...something. But I guess for Bobbi "I can't do this anymore" really means "I want to do more of this, just in a different setting."
/srug
The good outweighed the bad. Cal's arc was wonderful. Otherwise, they really cleaned house while giving themselves some plotlines to eventually pick up on. Colson remains a badass.

Season 3 announced and the spin off got shelved (I think in favor of more Peggy Carter)
