MARVEL's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The new TV show based on some movies you may or may not have heard of the past few years.

It's really the only new show I'm looking forward to.

I checked this out last night. I don't know if it's because I'm sick or what, but I couldn't understand what the British couple were saying a lot of the time. I did think the pilot was ok, and I'll probably watch it again.

I liked it! Agent Coulson is one of my favorite Marvel characters, so I was thrilled that he has his own show now. I thought that it was very Whedon-esque, if you are a Buffy/Angel/Firefly fan.

I wonder if Colbie Smuthers will come over full time after HIMYM ends.

And wow, Gunn has aged.

I was not impressed. It didn't feel Whedonesque at all. I could single out a few lines that were Joss zingers, like Coulson coming out of the shadows, but that's all. The pilot felt really weak. Hope they get better, and soon. Sleepy Hollow is my favorite show so far this season, and felt more like a Mutant Enemy creation. Very disappointing.

I was underwhelmed too and I'm a diehard Whedonite. I haven't liked any of his newer series. This felt meh, like why do I care? I would have been more impressed if it was a bunch of seasoned actors like Ming Na and not this Teen Beat/CW crew. Especially the Mary Sue hacker girl.

I really wanted to like this but I checked out after half an hour. I'll give it one more try, maybe, but I'm underwhelmed.

Underwhelmed.

I'll watch a few more times but I'm not seeing anything past Coulson and Ming Na that'll hold my attention.

I thought it was cute. Fitz and Simmons need to talk more clearly. I also love Ming-na (anyone remember her on As the World Turns?). I like Coulson's humor. And J. August Richards, although I guess he's just a case of the week. I'll keep watching.

I also love Ming-na (anyone remember her on As the World Turns?).

I do! (But I couldn't remember which soap it was she was on, just that she was on one I used to watch. So thanks!)

[pathtaken]

I've been watching this faithfully but really don't think it's too good. The plots have been very predictable and it is kind of stupid that Coulson's "team" is so lame physically/fighting-wise.

Black Widow would be shocked.
