Does anyone watch Agents of SHIELD? And if so....holy crap!! Did you see that episode??
2x01 was incredible! Faith restored in Marvel TV.

It just aired here in Australia, without spoilers I'll just say it was a pretty good episode. I liked the ending twist and I look forward to Skye's stuff playing out but apart from that it didn't really feel special. I don't want to be comparing it to Arrow because the shows are doing different things but the difference between there season 2 premiers is ridiculous.

Not touching Arrow. Bad for all involved.
Agents was...amazing. Wow. I was a DC girl, still am in heart of hearts, but if marvel is going to give me things like Agents and Winter Soldier I'll happily change sides. Not much on the DC side to hold me anymore.

I have to disagree 110%, elec, but I respect your opinion.
And yeah, let's please not walk down that adrini/Arrow lane. It's better for everyone if we don't, haha!

I liked it. It wasn't exactly groundbreaking, but I had a good time watching it.
I absolutely LOVED the beginning of the episode. The cameos were fantastic. I really don't care that much about the new characters. One of them is cool, but that's it.
Being the Iron Man fan I am, I was happy to see Adrian Pasdar on the show again.

Second episode same as the first. It was goodfor the most part but it really seemed to think we'd give a crap about the woman who died last episode despite having barely known anything about her. It's a shame because after TWS the show became really good and the finale promised a really gritty grassroots story about a team with limited tech and manpower, only for the premiere to time skip past all the interesting stuff and put us back to mid season 1.

She was Lucy Lawless. For slightly older folks she's still well known and loved. I cheered when I saw her.

I know her because of Parks and Rec. She's great there, but I wish she would've been able to come back to SHIELD.

@elec, I'm definitely not getting your limited tech complaint. They're absolutely far more limited than before, and while that may be changing some with the end of episode 2, it's only slightly. They've definitely got the underdog thing going on.

Firstly I know she was Xena, but that alone isn't enough to make me care about a character.
Secondly they have a quinjet, they still have that holographic stuff, they've got teams of scientists. Sure they aren't as big as last season but there still too big for it to be really exciting to see them pull this stuff off. Now I expect something to happen and for this season to become great but at the moment it's not doing much for me.

Holy shit! That scene with Fitz and Ward, the best scene of the series, if the season can get more scenes like that it'll become must watch in no time.

Told you. Have faith. They know what they're doing. Do wish lawless had stuck around. Could have been really awesome.

So we finally got the finale here in Aus, my quick review is, a great episode of a pretty average season. My longer review would talk about this episode played to the shows biggest strength, it's villains, and that because the heroes were in fight mode from the go the fact most of them have almost not been developed at all wasn't as noticeable as it has been.
Oh and out of the big three superhero mid season finale this one ranks just above Flash with Arrow easily surpassing both of them.

So, Agent Carter is finished and Agents of SHIELD is back. Who else watched?

I did, and loved it! Raina is freaky looking and totally bad ass!
And yeah, Marvel's totally "mutanting" the Inhumans.

I love Fitz. He's easily the best thing about this season (I may have started shipping him with someone this episode). Simmons, meanwhile, has become my least favorite. She's going down a dangerous and dark path. I don't like how that juxtaposes with her sweet and bubbly personality. I've done a complete 180 on Skye compared to last season. But dear god, the "inhuman" line was bad. And "rock star?" C'mon. Oh, and Kyle MacLachlan. That is all I will say.

Agreed on the Fitz, Simmons and Skye parts. I liked the "inhuman" line, but I can see why you wouldn't. The "rock star" was a little overboard.

So I just watched the first episode after the mid season finale, firstly Kyle McLachlan is the best part of this show and I'm dreading him eventually being killed off. Secondly Fitz has been the best good guy for a while but this episode had Simmons move up to second best. Thirdly the inhuman line made me laugh so hard i had to pause the show.

Fitz and Simmons only get better as the show progresses.
I also didn't think I'd love Hunter as much as I do.
Agents of SHIELD is probably my favorite show on television right now. If Agent Carter was still playing it might have competition. Or would it since one's a spinoff of the other?

I am really feeling seriously bad for Skye's Dad. I think he's actually trying to get better.
Also, and this isn't shipping, but I think Fitz and Simmons might be an item and no one has any idea. They are just REALLY good at being sneaky.
