    Nice little bonus at the end of the show. Was genuinely surprised. I can only hope for similar things like that to happen.

    I didn't know a person could break their wrist and then snap it back into place like it was nothing.

    Characters continue to be shit, I'm so sad.

    I hope this thing doesn't last a season, the acting is so bad it's painful to watch at times.

    Colson is the only good actor on the show. Agent Ward is getting better. Having Ming-Na Wen with only a few lines and she's the real actress is sad. The 2 doctors and Skye are just horrible. I hope this gets better. Lol.

    I really don't mind Fitz-Simmons and Skye... Ward is the only one I'm not a fan of... I think because he's like a bad version of the guy who plays the vampire on Being Human...

    I don't get how the show can go from being incredibly cheesy to kinda finding its footing in the middle to going right back to incredibly cheesy. Fitz-Simmons is probably the only two characters I really care for. Oh, I like the pilot too. I still have high hopes for the show though. The ending was definitely a surprise.

    Got to catch up before I went to work today. Yeah. This shit sucks. Like Falling Skies level sucking. At least there's more eye candy here.

    The actors are almost unbearably bad/poorly casted (especially Skye). The plot is telegraphed incredibly hard. The characters are superficial, predictable, stereotypical, and boring (and I don't think this is only due to bad acting).

    Recipe for making SHIELD:
    1) Start with the worst episodes of the Doctor Who re-boot
    2) Remove the doctor
    3) Increased the number of "companions" to ~6
    4) Rewrite the plot accordingly

    That's about it. Now you have a boring-yet-far-fetched plot with uninteresting characters that never do anything clever.

    Just watched the second episode. Plot is foreshadowed a bit too much. I hope they iron out the kinks.

    Kinda getting a Firefly vibe after this episode, due to the fact that the airplane hanger bay looks just like the one on the Serenity...

    Yeah these characters are awful. I would be fine not caring about the plot if the characters, the writing for them, and the actors were better. Its like they didn't give a shit about anything and just went straight to Coulson leading around a crew of eye candy.

    The girl playing Miranda also played Mulan. The actors aren't bad, they just need to tighten up the writing. Gregg is definitely carrying the show.

    Episode was doing great until they got to the plane. Seemed as though their acting actually improved as the episode progressed, like its literally all their first gig. Though might have been the action sequence reprieve from the bad. Peruvian extras were better. Every non-Coulson/Ming Na scene was total shit.

    I enjoyed Agent Ward destroying a dude's hand with a vodka bottle?

    Fights are pretty good. Some bad acting, but I enjoy it each week so far.

    This show is okay so far, not really someone who cares about how well people are acting as long as the show gets more interesting eventually. >.> Almost feels like they are just throwing in common Marvel terms though to get people's attention at this point. This wouldn't really be a bad thing, but it just kinda feels forced at the moment.

    I thought the acting improved in episode 2, so I'm still hopeful. After all, Fringe had pretty meh acting (aside from John Noble) for the first couple episodes as well.
