The move to bring in another direct link to the Marvel movie universe appears to be an answer by the show’s creators to criticism from Marvel Comics fans, who want more elements of the Marvel Universe included in the S.H.I.E.L.D. TV series.

Lee told the TCA that he felt “very good” about the prospects for the second half the show’s inaugural season, and Entertainment Weekly also reports that Lee promised the TCA that the identity of the mysterious “Clairvoyant” character will be revealed by the end of Season 1.


Really kind of wish that we DIDN'T yet get that. There's something to be said for "Leave them wanting more."

Which makes me wonder why there's going to be about 6 weeks worth of sporadic breaks of the show in America.

Thought it might be something like that. No idea how you keep up with a show in the US with all the stop-start programming.

parkmania 01-17-2014 10:58 PM

The stop-start stuff is a fairly recent phenomenon, as least as extreme as it currently is. A part of it is explained fairly well in the following video starting at the 2:30 mark.

SPOILER: show
Confirmed that J. August Richards will be Deathlok

Kalyx triaD 01-23-2014 11:14 PM

I am very hype for Sif's appearance. They should also have JARVIS and General Ross appear.

Blonde Moment 01-24-2014 09:07 AM

SPOILER: show
Its a shame the character isn't interesting enough to have its own series. Still awesome to see orgin story that took people by surprise

A William Hurt cameo as Ross I would love to see.

Not only that but...

SPOILER: show
But we'll have Sif and Lorelei showing up as well.

Stan Lee will be in the next episode. :D


Lock Jaw 02-04-2014 10:09 PM

Was expecting Skye's mutant abilities to kick in

Shadow 02-05-2014 10:07 AM

Me too.

Krimzon7 02-05-2014 10:54 AM

I am going t ogive this a second chance. I will try and find the eps on Hulu or just download them all and binge on them.

Corporate CockSnogger 02-06-2014 02:46 PM

Yeah I was thinking Skye was gonna do some special power shit too. Probably good they held off on something like that, although I often hate it when characters get fatally wounded only to survive.

This is all really coming good now though. Every character has found their niche a little more and the plots are intertwining. The comedic beats are far better and Whedon-like than earlier in the series. The bit with Coulson and Ward trying to work the hologram table was like something straight out of Angel, and was great.

parkmania 02-08-2014 12:48 AM

I HAVE TO WAIT TIL MARCH 6TH FOR MOAR?!?!?!?


dammit.






I will say that I'm never a fan of the "let's show the same 5 minutes of activity from each character's POV", but I hated this one considerably less than most of this type of episode.

SlickyTrickyDamon 02-08-2014 01:11 AM

Do you get episodes on Thursdays instead? New episode March 4. Really strange how they are staggering the episodes. This is what.. the third significant break without new episodes?

Shadow 02-08-2014 09:07 PM

Last break was a midseason weirdness, then we had the President's speech and now we've got the Olympics. Yeah it is frustrating but there it is.

parkmania 02-08-2014 10:38 PM

Didn't research what day of the week it was, but I thought I heard March 6th. Gonna have to review the DVR to see just how full of it I am.

The Olympics are on NBC though. Confused.

parkmania 02-08-2014 11:31 PM

If you think enough of your demographic is going to tune in to the Olympics no matter what, why waste new episodes during that time?

Frank Drebin 02-08-2014 11:32 PM

Same reason for networks not to air new shows going up against the Super Bowl.

Kalyx triaD 03-04-2014 09:23 PM

Okay...

SHIELD's been dealing with some strange shit.

Lock Jaw 03-04-2014 11:10 PM

Was that "GH" torso thing supposed to be recognizable as something from the comic books?

Shadow 03-04-2014 11:47 PM

Speculation is ranging from an Ice Giant to an Atlantian to the Kree.

Lock Jaw 03-05-2014 12:29 AM

Kind of looked like "The Pale Orc" from The Hobbit movies. Maybe it is him.

Kalyx triaD 03-05-2014 01:21 AM

Kree is a good guess, that could lead to Ms Marvel. Skrulls aren't on their list of characters to use and Atlantean is more likely gonna be hosted by Fox than anything.

Corporate CockSnogger 03-05-2014 07:15 PM

Couldn't really get into this episode for whatever reason. Thought a lot of the acting was really hammy and terrible, mostly from Clark Gregg funnily enough. Dont think he's too great at playing serious. I did have that worry prior to the show starting but I think this episode is the first time I actually noticed it heavily and it took me out of the story a bit.

Corporate CockSnogger 03-05-2014 07:25 PM

Also the scene with this Triplett guy and Simmons was the single most cringeworthy thing I've seen on tv in a good long while.

parkmania 03-07-2014 09:46 AM

I'm wondering if that might have been Thanos. It would make sense if they're starting to build to an Infinity Gauntlet-based movie in Phase 3. There was speculation that the item Starlord is going after at the beginning of the Guardians of the Galaxy trailer is an Infinity Gem.

EDIT:

This
Asshole (Awesome, Abnormal, something else)
Humanoid
Is
Thanos
I.

Lock Jaw 03-07-2014 01:30 PM

Thanos was last seen alive and well and not a torso in a tube.

Kalyx triaD 03-07-2014 02:04 PM

Not to mention it's a fucking stupid idea.

VSG 03-07-2014 04:09 PM

ROFL if Shield has Thanos cut up and contained, the whole Avengers franchise is doomed.

parkmania 03-07-2014 09:32 PM

Ok, so I didn't realize we had seen Thanos somewhere in MCU already. Sorry I'm behind on my movie-watching.

I thought that there was a chance the guy could have been rendered unconscious somehow after a battle and kept catatonic to be used to harvest GH325 from until the mountain blew up.

In that case.....


*Spoiler Alert*

parkmania 03-07-2014 10:25 PM

No worries. I still haven't STARTED watching Phase 1 yet. I'll probably forget about the spoiler by the time I get a chance to.

SlickyTrickyDamon 03-13-2014 05:56 AM

Oh and another 2 weeks without a new episode...

Dark-Slicer Diago 03-13-2014 08:30 AM

These constant breaks are annoying, same with Arrows current break, at least these are "hopefully" the last breaks until the season finales.

parkmania 03-13-2014 10:42 AM

At least the break for next week sees us get a special about the MCU.

Shadow 03-13-2014 12:45 PM

Yeah these breaks aren't really doing the show any favors.

Corporate CockSnogger 03-13-2014 01:12 PM

Also Clark Gregg's unfortunate inability to act well in serious scenes isn't really helping much.
