    The internet says he's alive somewhere. There's a sister, too.

    I'm 6 episodes in and it's been pretty bad. When does it get good?

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    It's been great. So I don't know what you're talking about. I mean there's only been 8 episodes.

    The first season?

    There was literally a line in the pilot where the bad guy said something like: "This is an origin story". I almost spit my coffee out and I wasn't even drinking any.

    And the whole Skye subplot so far has been really eyesrolling worthy. Although I'll put up with her as long as there is an episode every now and then with her in her underwear.

    Okay, well, you're posting in the Season 2 thread where we all said to skip ahead to Season 2 and don't bother with Season 1.

    I figured it was better to ask questions in the most active thread rather than to bump an old thread. So I should skip season 1 entirely?

    The first season gets good about 3/4 of the way in, but the general consensus is that it's not worth the build up. The second season has been very solid, though.

    This applies tp other character as well.

    Otherwise, this episode killed it. They are not afraid of moving this plot forward.

    Great stufffff. It's interesting that the obelisk, the city, Skye and her dad's identity all end up being the obvious answers that most Marvel fans guessed, but whatever. They nailed that plotline, and the last half of this ep was genuinely thrilling.

    3 eps into s1 and I'm not against what I'm seeing. It's fast, colorful, there's some easygoing chemistry, Gregg can really anchor a show, he's great and hilarious, the various references to Marvel's universe are cool to have, but I'm stupefied that there's 21 more episodes of...this. Nowadays, with all the good/great shows being 10-13, 24 seems unending given the lack of an overarching (so far) storyline.

    Has the 24-episode season been played out? Isn't any show better off sticking to 10-13 episodes? Seems like a considerably lesser challenge to actually ensure the whole season will rock.

    So 21 more. Will ride it out. But fuck. 21 more to go.

    Since Skye's mother was pretty much immortal, it's entirely possible that she went to the United States during the 40's and had a love affair with Agent Sousa.

    I was worried at the beginning of this last episode that it's gonna be back to season one's Scooby-Dooing, but everything in the back half was just awesome.

    The expository dialogue in the first scene was sooooo bad.

    However, Talbot mansplaining lawnmowers was fantastic.
