I thought this was pretty good, if they can resist temptation to drag this story out it could be pretty entertaining as far as "dream world" storylines go.

Now that's how you do political allegory (Supergirl).

The great thing about the show now is that the whole world view (Hydra) fits in neatly with the current political climate.

Love the Agents of Hydra stuff with the logo. Looks like this will be a fun ride. And kind of a reset with powerless Skye, Ward as good guy and Fitz and Simmons being split up.

So true. But so far I'm digging his return. That season where he was possessed by the goo was where he wore out his welcome.

Fun so far, but still too much of a Matrix rip-off for my taste. Will probably get some level of Matrix like search for the key master and architect now so they can get out!

Also like Star Trek's mirror universe with everybody having an evil counterpart. Except Ward whose opposite is good instead evil.

Their added wrinkle seems to be Coulson and they seem to be going with the idea that his Tahiti experience makes the difference.
