Even I was on the verge of quitting and I would jump off a bridge if Joss Whedon told me too. Dollhouse had a similar problem to my thinking. It had an excellent long game plan, but they took too long to get there and ratings suffered. I know Joss loves to lull us into complacency and then pull out the rug from under us, but the pattern isn't the greatest for new shows that need to gain an audience. Still, I think Agents of SHIELD has decent chances, even if ratings aren't the awesomest. The fact that it's so heavily tied in with the cash cow that is the Marvel Cinematic Universe should help, I hope.sunbunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553429350476841139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-64191898580592959742014-04-18T19:34:39.969-04:002014-04-18T19:34:39.969-04:00Loved this episode as well.

I think that if they planned far enough ahead to know they were doing this and have tied the show in with a movie or two then I have faith that the show is going somewhere interesting. I have no idea what that interesting might be but I'm pretty sure I'm going to like it. I am sad that Ward is bad but it is very Whedon that the usual "good" guy ie. James Bond type is actually not so good.drnanamomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03667806039402426676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-68696311634306129412014-04-17T20:23:46.741-04:002014-04-17T20:23:46.741-04:00My biggest worry at this point is what their long-...My biggest worry at this point is what their long-term plan is for this show. This being the Whedon family, I'm willing to extend a little faith. Especially since they apparently knew from the beginning that this is what they'd be doing. But as of right now there's a part of me that's worried this could turn out to be like one of those times JJ Abrams turned Alias on its head only for it to become clear he didn't really have a plan beyond the next half-dozen episodes or so. I mean, if I had to guess, the rest of the season will involve Coulson's team trying to convince Talbot and the US Government that HYDRA's the real bad guy, not what's left of SHIELD, and that the world still needs SHIELD, leading to its eventual rebuilding in future seasons. I can't see them being a totally renegade team for multiple seasons. That plane is a tad conspicuous when it's flying around the world.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03943327351499919454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-13493711932792473572014-04-17T19:33:35.556-04:002014-04-17T19:33:35.556-04:00I'm the opposite.

Don't ruin this by having it all be another fake out, writers!<br /><br />The entire sequence with the team wandering around in the "cold" was driving me absolutely nuts because you couldn't see anyone's breath. If it was even remotely as cold as they were pretending, people should have been breathing frosty clouds! It completely took me out of the scenes and seriously undermined Coulson's big breakdown for me. Try harder, production team!Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-68160827646396063232014-04-17T18:35:57.919-04:002014-04-17T18:35:57.919-04:00Yeah, what sunbunny said.

I was clinging to the possibility that he was faking it, but nooooo.Billie Douxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141769005175631213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-71733848241783539762014-04-17T17:12:39.678-04:002014-04-17T17:12:39.678-04:00LOVED it.

For a second when he took the gun thing from Garrett I thought it was a triple cross, but no.<br /><br />If Coulson was a sleeper agent, wouldn't they have wanted him active for their big takeover? Seems logical.<br /><br />Oh and, now that it's painful, I'm climbing aboard the Skyeward ship.sunbunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553429350476841139noreply@blogger.com
