Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
That was never anything other than fan shipping. Nothing in the show showed them as anything other than friends. I can notice another guy has a nice physique without being attracted to him.
Mack has a sexuality of "neutral" all season long, and there's the scene where he grabs the ID of one of the guys killed on his ship.
You learn to spot these things.

Oh, I remember now, thanks. First few seasons are a bit muddy to me.
That's fine. There were hints of something more and Mack's sexuality still isn't confirmed two seasons in.
It would've been a million times more interesting than watching two siblings get together.

The flight plan I just filed with the agency list me, my men, Dr. Pavel here. But only one of you!
I remain eternally unmoved by the "eww, they are like siblings!" complaint, given that we are 3 seasons down and there was absolutely clear and obvious romantic/sexual tension between the two by, at the very latest, the mid-way point of the first season.
Show could continue for 10 more seasons and end with FitzSimmons married with 3 kids, but folks would still be like "yeah but they had a semi-plutonic rivarly for like the first 3 episodes so it sucks"

Fitz hearing DL and immediately jumping to "Down-Low" is the moment where it was like "ok, yeah, this is totally deliberate."
Them ending up together is really weird, given that it plays into all the obnoxious stereotypes the storyline seemed to be trying to avoid in the first place. With literally the entire case (except mack) all having relationship drama in S3, it makes me wonder if there was a studio note.
What? My first thought for DL is "down low" as in "keep it on the DL". I don't even know what you're referring to there.
I mean, I'm not disputing anything else, it's just that's not indicative of anything.
Do some googling. Urbandictionary or something similar should be able to help.

You are correct, and that is almost certainly the intended meaning. However, there is also a specific (generally black/urban) meaning of "down low" referring specifically to a closeted dude (generally in a relationship with a woman) hooking up with other dudes. The idea that this is what they were implying on the show is what we call "projecting"
Mack is all about that Yo-Yo though.

Cmon if they off Daisy they have no show.
Yeah, I won't deny she's the main reason I tune in and stuck through it when it was pure garbage, but I do think they should have used the finale to establish that the main cast isn't as safe as we keep thinking they are.
I would have been okay with them offing May and using that to bring back to Mockingbird.
But he is so slow though. Yo yo is all about that speed.

"Mack, I like you. Let's go for drinks tonight."
"Wait, what are you saying?"
"Ah, you're so slow. Just kiss me."
"Now you're talking."

I hadn't noticed how they let Daisy's hair grow back out through the season until that video. It was way short at the beginning of S3!

The sex will never be good enough.
Yo-Yo is into Mack but he's been pretty guarded romantically towards her. I like how it's projecting him being either gay or bisexual when there's been nothing to suggest he's straight, either.
I'm sure it's going to happen though, because starting with S3 this show has regressed back into some pretty boring conventional stuff.

Been spending the last few days reading this thread on and off.
Gutted that HiveWard blew up in space. I have come to love Brett Dalton. People have mentioned he could come back as a LMD, but wouldn't it essentially be a different character then? Unless SHIELD has a policy to scan all their agents brains or they pull some stuff like they created an AI from videos of his exploits.
Not a fan of long haired slight goth Quake. A bit too tryhard. And that's coming from a rocker who generally likes that type

Not a fan either, but it was essentially a disguise so she could get close to Hinton's wife and daughter before SHIELD recognized her. She must constantly switch between looks while on the run.
Cmon if they off Daisy they have no show.
I would love it if they offed Daisy. The show has way too much invested in her character and the show really suffers for it (because she's annoying as fuck).

Here's hoping. She is naturally stunning and I felt that look took it away somewhat.
Would also like to agree with the people who said the bro out between Lincoln and HiveWard at the end was amazing. They both knew nothing was to be achieved by dramatics so it was nice to see some groundedness if that is the right way to describe it
Nonsense.

Is Ward offically gone for good now

FitzSimmons avoided the curse because it hit Coulson, May and Daisy's relationships this year instead.

So I just finished this earlier today.
Daisy being the main character is a little annoying, I mean I get it's a show about her but Half of S4 is going to be
Coulson "Daisy pls come back"
FitzSimmons "She is emo now it's hard for her"
Coulson "Daisy Pls"
Mack is such a boring character, I get it they need a big guy but c'mon he is so boring. Him and YoYo can both leave for all I care. At least Hunter was somewhat funny and Bobby was fairly interesting.
May hasn't done anything of worth in forever. Daisy has basically surpassed her as an Agent and Coulson just ignores her when she tries they "wisdom of tough agent with a heart of gold" thing.
Lincoln was an awful character, glad he is dead.
Ward being gone is a shame but after HiveWard I really don't care. It was a bad route to take the character, Coulson crushing his chest would have been a better conclusion.
It wasn't an amazing series but it's better than Arrow has been. Looking forward to next season.

Daisy annoying as fuck? For real?

can they just have her look like this already?
Only if Chloe wants to cut her hair that short, which I doubt. I think she had it as short as she was willing to go this season.
Other than that, give her the giant gloves.

I guess my joke didn't work as well as I'd thought.
She's definitely way too central. They need to freshen up the perspective.
Hopefully he will come back as one of those robots.

I don't think Chloe Bennet can pull that look considering her chubby built.

He'll be back. He still needs his chance to redeem himself.
please tell me you're joking, I can't seem to tell the difference these days.
She's not a tall skinny model who could stand on the catwalk. Nothing wrong with that eh. I don't think her head could sport this sort of haircut either, different people have different styles that suit them better.
Chubby is a bit of a strong word though.
I agree with this. There is no way that Chloe can pull that look off. She have a different build to her.
