Looking forward to this, hopefully they can keep the momentum they had at the end of last season.

Been looking forward to this! I wonder how much time will have passed in-show since the S1 finale.

I just question why Ward still needs to be a regular. Any attempt to rehabilitate him would be stupid. It's not like he was an interesting character either. Tripp was far more effective in that role later in the year.

I'm going to DVR the first few episodes of this season and get caught up on S1 through Netflix Latin America.

I'm sure there will be a redemption arc for the first half of the season. They can't possibly redeem Ward within the first couple of episodes.

Re: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (S2E01) -- Season Premiere -- "Shadows" -- 9/23/14
Redemption? He murdered Saffron Burrows and all those other people in cold blood. I'm just not buying it.
|
Re: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (S2E01) -- Season Premiere -- "Shadows" -- 9/23/14
He'll redeem himself and die in the process. That's pretty much the only way they can believably do it.

Re: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (S2E01) -- Season Premiere -- "Shadows" -- 9/23/14
They will probably need Ward because of special knowledge he has of HYDRA.
It would be better if they just moved on from him. |

Awesome opening!

^ Agree, it was a like a mini-Raiders of the Lost Ark .
Absorbing Man was cool to see as well. I need a refresher: what happened to Fitz to mess him up so bad? Interesting twist with Simmons . Seems like this season will be a bit darker than last year, which I guess is part of them taking advantage of the later time slot. |

The WWII flashback was awesome, but I don't know, I'm trying to like this because I like the Marvel universe, but the main cast just isn't really doing it for me. The actress that plays Skye seems like she belongs in some teen soap opera, and I don't buy Ming Na Wen as a badass. I liked the premiere of Gotham better than any episode of this series. |

Good start to the season. Looks like Ward is going to be playing Hannibal Lector for a little while.

Fits has brain damage from being without air when he and Simmons escaped from the container Ward dropped in the ocean during the last two episodes of season one.

Re: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (S2E01) -- Season Premiere -- "Shadows" -- 9/23/14
Got the same Hannibal vibe as well.

Re: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (S2E01) -- Season Premiere -- "Shadows" -- 9/23/14
I loved this episode, and totally geeked out with Creel (especially his "wrecking ball").

Re: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (S2E01) -- Season Premiere -- "Shadows" -- 9/23/14
I guess JJ Feild was unavailable for the opening scene. It would be nice if they could get Neal McDonough signed on to do Agent Carter.
It was a better opening then the first episode from last year. In addition to the assumed Cobie Smulders role later this year, they should try to pry Emily Van Camp for an episode or two. Also, this wouldn't be a bad time to try to land Scarlett. She might not want to commit to a movie with the new baby, but a week's worth of work in front of the Avengers movie would be a good tie in. |

Some of my deepest fears in life are limb damage and tight spaces, so between this and The Strain, it's just been a banner week for me :p The Absorbing Man? So we're just totally ignoring the Ang Lee Hulk film now? Solid season premier, setting up SHIELD working in the dark and needing resources and being ragtag. So what is that thing? Apparently Lucy Lawless won't be a regular. "People need our help, whether they know it or not. I know what it's supposed to mean, but that was awkwardly phrased, and wow, did it sound fascist. "Football or American football." It's called "soccer." You know, it's irritating, for some reason, the English think they can speak the language better than we can just because they invented it ;). |

That whole Fritz thing was pretty sad and............Caps gotta know that Colson is alive by now, right?

Love this episode. The surprise with Fitz was great. The absorbing man was cool. The oh so predictable bad guy is still around was even cool.
|
Re: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (S2E01) -- Season Premiere -- "Shadows" -- 9/23/14
I was highly entertained. And I also hope that only made Ward helpful, you can't just fix what he has done, there is no way to do that.

Tonight's episode was really good - it was very cool to see Crusher Creel as The Absorbing Man! My guess is that this season they don't shy away from the superheroes or super villains the way they did for most of last season.
That was a great way to open up the 2nd season. And, for the record, Ming Na Wen kicks ass. |
