ABC just aired a promo that had the series' return subtitled "Uprising," and flashed an image of Captain America's shield a la the eyepatch logo in promos for the second episode... hmm.

Promotional material for Marvels new movie. I am shocked.

 

[DECK'ARD]

So are they going to walk around a set from The Winter Soldier for 5 minutes and then go off and do something nothing to do with it?

Hype!

LOL I like the way you think.

Hyyyyype

 

[Moaradin]

You guys are really cynical of this show.

I like it ;_;

 

[gazele]

I like it too, low expectations are key

They need more D-tier references too, I know they're coming, like Batroc the leaper (although he's in the captain america movie)

 

[J10]

The show is called Agents of SHIELD and there's a shield behind the title.






















































That's clever.

"please be excited"

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Hype is rising...I'm trying to lower it, but it won't.

Does this link work?

NICE! Thanks

 

[Mariolee]

If this is as linked to Captain America as that video implies, then that must mean the spoilers posted before are probably true. Good.

 

[SRG01]

Plot twist: Fury joins the team and it basically becomes Secret Avengers.

Oh God, I want this to happen soooo much.

 

[Father_Brain]

If this is as linked to Captain America as that video implies, then that must mean the spoilers posted before are probably true. Good.

Eh, I wouldn't say that. Given the central role SHIELD has in TWS, it was pretty much a given that the series would tie into it more substantially than it did with Thor: TDW.

Spoiler

if Skye displays technopathic powers, on the other hand, those spoilers were probably legit.

 

[Father_Brain]

New Not-Joss and Tancharoen interview on the remaining nine episodes. No real news here (and they unfortunately weren't asked about the impact of TWS on the show), but it's funny how their response to every other question is to reassure readers that there are even more actual Marvel characters coming!!!, given that several of the interviews/panels earlier in the season deemphasized precisely that. Though those may have been more Bell/Loeb, I forget.

 

[TheOddOne]

Agents of poops returns today with a new episode:

Season 1: episode 14 "T.A.H.I.T.I"

Spoiler

Coulson goes on the attack to save Skye--enlisting the aid of Ward's former S.O. John Garrett (Bill Paxton)--and uncovers shocking truths about his own life and S.H.I.E.L.D.

 

[Cornballer]

- IGN with a few comments from the cast & crew on tonight's episode and the upcoming arc (some spoilers)

 

[BattleMonkey]

Including Marvel characters is the least of the shows needs.

 

[Cornballer]

- CBR: Whedon & Tancharoen Answer Your "Agents of SHIELD" Questions (some spoilers)

Unfortunately, most of the answers consist of "We can't comment."

 

[BlackNMild2k1]

- CBR: Whedon & Tancharoen Answer Your "Agents of SHIELD" Questions (some spoilers)

Unfortunately, most of the answers consist of "We can't comment."

so really it should say Whedon & Tacncharoen "Answer" your Agents of SHIELD Questions.

or possibly respond to.

But I'm confident that they will provide us with something much more entertaining in the remaining episodes, than they have in the previous ones. Especially, but not limited to the first 9 or 10.

 

[dead souls]

Including Marvel characters is the least of the shows needs.

Exactly. Introduce whoever you want, if the writing doesn't improve the show won't improve.

 

[Father_Brain]

Exactly. Introduce whoever you want, if the writing doesn't improve the show won't improve.

If it can just maintain the quality of the last two episodes, I'll be reasonably satisfied. Though I'd prefer if the writers used TWS as an opportunity to genuinely shake up the premise and cast (*cough*killward*cough*).

Honestly, the lack of any serious attempt at MCU world-building (outside the Academy episode, which not coincidentally was one of the best to date) has been much more disappointing to me than the dearth of canon Marvel characters/elements. It's mostly just been generic evil corporations and generic SHIELD facilities, with a few scraps here and there like HYDRA scientists fleeing to South America or Asgardians secretly living on earth that aren't really fleshed out.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

So tonight is NOT the one with Sif, right? Is that next week?

 

[Pai Pai Master]

So tonight is NOT the one with Sif, right? Is that next week?

Her episode is called "Yes Men" and is either next week or the 25th, can't remember.

 

[Father_Brain]

Sif episode is next week.

 

[Dai101]

NICE!! A new WS spot.

 

[richiek]

Sif episode is next week.

Elena Satine is listed in the opening credits. Are we gonna see Lorelei tonight?

 

[kirblar]

Actual stakes for an episode. Hallelujah.

 

[anaron]

Elena Satine is listed in the opening credits. Are we gonna see Lorelei tonight?

Hopefully it means the beginning of better serialization.

 

[richiek]

Coulson & Skye are healed with Asgardian science. I'm calling it.

 

[The Elite]

It would be faster to use a search engine.

 

[Khezu]

That doesn't even make sense.

 

[Nokagi]

Coulson & Skye are healed with Asgardian science. I'm calling it.

Yeah. This always seemed like the obvious answer to me.

This episode is pretty good so far though.

 

[Quick]

Coulson & Skye are healed with Asgardian science. I'm calling it.

Seems to be how it's going to turn out. Sif coming next week with Skye potentially still out is too convenient.

 

[Dai101]

T.A.H.I.T.I.

 

[fallengorn]

Episode so far is pretty mediocre. That was such a terrible shoot out.

 

[Slayven]

The Enchantresses' baby sis? Wow, I love this show.

 

[Nokagi]

Huh.What/who was that in the tank?

 

[Ripclawe]

seriously? fucking seriously you are not going to tell them her drug came from a being? come on.

 

[ZeroGravity]

What the fuck was that
