Season 2: Or how to grow a beard

Pros:

Good build up for later films

Improved effects

Greater ambition

Moral grayness

Highly connected storyline

Grant Ward

Lance Hunter

Callbacks to season 1

Mysteries about Skye and Coulson not padded out

Improved pacing

No true villains during second half

Skye and Fitz's development

Better characterization

Koenigs

Daniel Whitehall

Finale has huge impact on MCU

Good tie ins with mcu

Cons:

Still some narm

Age of aultron tie in was a bit of a let

Real SHIELD had almost no buildup

Simmons during first couple of episodes of second half

Mack's fantastic rascism while understanding could get annoying

Whitehall as cool of a villain he was didn't do much

HYDRA pushed to background in latter half (Understandable but still flaw)

Ian Quinn and Gravitonium plotlines not touched on

The long, LONG wait to season 3 ( though ant man should help)

Bottom line:

This season was a massive improvement over the decent but flawed first. The heroes faced challenges both physical and moral. The villains with the exception of Hydra were not complete monsters. The new characters wer (mostly) awesome and the old guard was still strong. This show still has flaws but is slowly but surely becoming a classic.

Score: Please give this show a second chance/10 (9/10)

"I'm the one who kills Gordon" should be a meme.

Update: Second season coming out on Netflix. Show support by watching/ Converting as many people as possible. Ratings are going down so give this show the attention it deserves. Don't let it become another Invader Zim.
