Agents of SHIELD ep 2
Oct. 4th, 2013 09:04 pmI know I said I wouldn't say any more about this show unless I thought it had improved, but I do actually think ep 2 was better than ep 1, so anyway...
I've conceived an intense hatred of Agent Ward. I want him to die!!!
Is this wrong?

I wish Magneto would go evil again (again) and kill him.

There is an element of that, though at least Ballard had the grace to be majorly creepy. Ward doesn't even have that.

Date: 2013-10-05 04:42 pm (UTC)I'm not sure now why I thought this ep was better than the first. It could be because, apart from Ward, I wasn't quite as annoyed by the bland kids playing Sky (Skye?), Fitz and Simmons.
On the other hand, Mrs Smouldering South American Stereotype who couldn't keep her shirt buttoned was annoying enough for all of them.

I watched The Crazy Ones for about 10 minutes and could take no more.
I want a show to obsess about!!!!!

Date: 2013-10-05 04:48 pm (UTC)Well, I doubt everyone thinks they're so terrible. The show isn't aimed at our age group. ;) There are probably hundreds of fan boys out there who think they're all marvellous.
I can't see it getting cancelled, when it can have Samuel L Jackson cameos in it.

That would have removed two annoying characters from the cast (Ward and Skye (Sky?) in one fell swoop.

*sigh*
