[up] Nah, it just happened that his car and his ex-girlfriend have the same name. The last SHIELD had good issues, but overall was just okay, while this one is...still just kind of okay. It doesn't help that the very first storyarc was interrupted by a Bat Family Crossover called Avengers Standoff.

Although, now that I think about it, the crossover issue where the Agents of SHIELD fight against the New Avengers was actually the best issue so far.

[up] That issue is also damned near a reprint of the New Avengers issue.

Eh, it was still good. As long as some Al Ewing magic rubs off on the book. (Goddamn is Ewing a great writer. Now I want the Plunderer to show up on AOS, but he has to have his Plunderbots.)

[up] American Kaiju would be too big budget for AOS. I want the New Avengers to have their own movie and for the American Kaiju to be the big battle at the end.

[up][up][up][up][up][up]I was actually considering not watching the episode due to that trope... then I remembered I watch them through a scrying pool so it doesn't matter

The people that make the show have little to nothing to do with making the ads. It's also incredibly easy to not see the ads if you don't watch it live.

I'll give the current Tonight, Someone Dies marketing a bit of a pass this time around since the actual characters on the show know that someone in SHIELD is going to die thanks to the vision-inducing Inhuman.

Plus this is a show where the protagonists are constantly getting involved dangerous situations, and last season had a pretty significant body count during the last 3 episodes. So if anything, it would almost be weirder if no one died.

It's not like we are watching a show along the lines of, for example, The Office and the marketing abruptly starts declaring that Tonight, Someone Dies towards the end of the season, despite the fact that no one has ever died on the show nor is anyone at any meaningful risk.

[up] I don't know, Arrested Development had a good version of the Tonight, Someone Dies trope: they advertised it in the show and then at the end, it turned out it was someone's racist great-aunt who had never shown up before, making the entire thing a waste of time and hilarious.

It won't come as a huge surprise if the person that kicks the bucket is Lash. It was called earlier in the thread as well, and it would fulfill the "someone dies tonight" while also being kinda a cop-out.

By this episode's end, I'm going to regret not seeing Civil War this past weekend, aren't I?

And how long has it been since we've actually seen Daisy hacking?

Considering it already spoiled information about the accords and other details early on I would imagine that OT will have more spoilers probably.
