I find this show to be fun to watch, but the acting seems really crappy at times especially during the fight scenes. Overall though it is a pretty good show. I love that Agent Colsen is in it, he was my favorite from the Marvel movies.

Remember when they tried to do this very same thing with Birds of Prey?
Basically they take a future world where Batman is no longer in the picture and follow the escapades of Helena Kyle, Dinah Lance, and Barbara Gordon (Huntress, Black Canary and Oracle) as they fight crime and act terribly.
I foresee a similar scenario for this show.
I wonder who the genius was who said "Hey, let's make a show where you get to see all the little things that S.H.E.I.L.D. does that isn't important enough to get a hold of Captain America or Iron Man for."
It is perfectly acceptable to fear and admire a being you could not possibly understand.

Yeah I don't see this show getting to far, but Marvel is so huge that I'm sure it will keep going since all the Marvel fans are eating it up.

But remember, comic book fans tend to be a fickle lot.
They may just revolt against the show.

Yeah, I know the comic fans probably hate it, but I was talking more about the fan girls and unsophisticated people who don't have the decency to care about the real stories.

It's kinda crappy. They pretty much just do little criminal escapades, and occasionally throw in the name Tony Stark to keep the fanboys happy.

I agree, I'm still watching it though. You never know, it might become awesome.

I watched the first two episodes. I agree the acting is terrible, but I'll keep watching it because I'm a complete sucker for this stuff.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat.

I wasn't fond of it at the start, but I kept watching for the easter eggs.
I think it is actually getting better as it goes. There is finally some character development, and it is still based off a lot of comics, so I'm actually quite happy with it now.

Me, still not as good as Arrow/The Flash.

I haven't watched either of those yet, but I'm starting to enjoy Agents of Shield quite a bit more.

AoS has a habit of putting all the important stuff in the big "reveal" episodes in the last 10 to 15 minutes. That mid-season finale was almost all filler right up until the end.

Yeah, I've noticed that as well. They seem to be getting better though.

Arrow/The Flash is still better. And we're probably getting Booster Gold before the end of the season, my favorite superhero of all time. Because he's the superhero everyone would probably be.

arrow/flash will always be better because DC is better at TV shows then Marvel,, with the exception of Dark Knight movies, DC is pretty bad when it comes to movies where Marvel wins. but i think Marvel is geting better. i think by the time agent carter finishes shield will be very good

Outside of Age of Ultron and Civil War, I'm far more excited about the DC cinematic universe over Marvel. GotG 2 will probably be amazing as well but let's see who Adam Warlock is played by and how that changes the team dynamic. Ant-Man will probably be a disaster.
I think the Marvel Netflix shows will be much better than AoS.
