Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

And the all Chris.

There is no all Chris. All of the Chrises are the same Chris.

Think about it. Have you ever seen two of the Chrises in one place? Yes. Yes you have. Two different pairs of Chrises, even. But only ever because one of them was a god, and can therefore be in multiple places at once.

I have heard that about gods.

"But Steve Trevor and Steve Rogers are played by different actors. "

Did they Aliterator, DID THEY?

....I mean yes but is still reincarnation, That is why steve fight with a shield, he pick that for seeing diana in the other universe.

Also KG Beast? he work for Hydra in marvel universe but after Steve kick is ass, he jump to DC one expecting to be easier....

bad mistake.

Ok, I have see two episodes and I have to said this:

First of all....Yo yo want a life with mack, children and all? Maybe is because my brother have a daughter and a son but lately I find that charming in a way, is....cute when someone said they want that.

really my heart have warm a lot for Yo yo, going from being abrasive douche to this is....nice.

Also....yeah I will said, I LOVE Hydra fitz, the actor REALLY sell the acting unlike ward(maybe because I always feel he didnt change at all pre and post betrayal).

It is a shame Ward is not here, I would love to see the interaction between him and hydra fitz overall considering Fitz belive in him.

Wait...where in the show are you now?

I've finally, FINALLY picked up this show. It's okay from the two episodes I've seen thus far. All signs are telling me it gets better and better as it goes so I'll give it time.

Yes. Keep in mind that pretty much everyone agrees that the first episodes are the weakest of the show by a long shot. Don't give up to early, it is worth sticking around. I have seen the most cynical reactors being enthralled eventually.

I still maintain that the first episode is one of the show's finest. The final confrontation with Mike Peterson is still, after five seasons, my all-time favorite resolution to an Agents plot.

Coulson's high-octane casual chat with a desperate man at the end of his rope and about to literally explode made me cry. T.T If the show had retained this concept that the characters are in no way capable of going toe-to-toe with the forces they're dealing with but are able to think outside the box and find a peaceful resolution, I think the show would have been much better for it.

I like the Agents better when they're being cops than when they're being soldiers. The show's at its strongest when it's Coulson in an interrogation room going, "Talk to me. Tell me what you're about." It's at its weakest when it's, "I made a super-gun that fires plot-cancelling bullets. Use it to drive Captain Bad Guy into the Phlebotinum Device, which will dissolve him on a molecular level."

Yeah, I never quite followed the idea that the pilot is "meh". It really isn't, it does a great job to introduce the characters and the world. It is more the second episode I have issues with.

Still, the show is at its best when it finally reaches its pay off moments.

The first episode was pretty great, but I think that actually contributed further to the bitterness over the ensuing episodes feeling like a middling-to-bad CW adventure series, because all the guest stars, connections with the greater MCU, and writer/director/budget all just evaporated *snap* like that.

Maybe....but I also think that the expectations were too high from the get go.

"Wait...where in the show are you now?"

After Fitz turn back Daisy powers.

Damn that was fuck up as hell, he took a few epside to be more scary that any other hydra agent ever.

Ah yes, "The Devil Complex." The one that pretty much broke Fitz fans. Also, probably one of the show's best episodes.

Ian is easily the best actor Marvel TV has. By a mile.

Honestly, it is always a little bit odd to go back to the science babies time. Fitz and Jemma have changed so much since then.

Ian and Brett share the top spot imO.

Brett's Hive was just as chilling as Ian's Evil Fitz. The 2 would make a great duo

I think Ian and Elizabeth are the top dogs. I don't know if that's because they had the best material, or if they had the best material because of their skills though.

...my vote's for Brett and Chloe honestly.

I still miss Seasons 1 to 3. I liked the idea of an Alias-like Marvel show, with full-time SHIELD going around and dealing with Mike Petersons and HYDRA and John Garrett's.

The "Dirty Half-Dozen" remains my favorite episode, with "Spacetime" and "The Team" right behind it.

Mnnnh, while I like Jemma mostly, sometimes Elizabeth has a tendency to act overly....dramatic.

Like that scene in the Framework where she tried to convince Coulson of who he really is. A bit too much.

Iain De Caestecker is probably one of the finest actors Marvel employs, tv or movies. He pretty much made Self-Control (the show’s best episode, IMO), and it’s the small things that he does that make his performances standout. Henry Simmons is a close second, and I fully appreciate them completely leaning into the Ho -Yay and Romantic False Lead/Not Love Interest stuff in season 2.

Elizabeth Henstridge and Chloe Bennett's scenes in "Self Control" were the absolute best. They made the episode.

All the actors are really good in fact. Ming-Na’s final speech as LMayD still breaks me.

The only one I can't really get into (though I also don't like the character very much, so that probably doesn't help) is Natalia.

...who?

Natalia Cordova-Buckley, Yo-Yo.
