I liked it a lot. The characters are so far pretty glib and superficial, but the action and plot were entertaining enough to make that a minor concern for now, and I suspect we'll see them grow and deepen as the series progresses. I thought it was above-average action-oriented TV fare. Clever, amusing, exciting: well-done, overall.
I liked it even though I had my othet eye glued on the new Young Avengers chapter. The guy with the superpowers reminds me a lot about YA Eli Bradley a.k.a. Patriot by the way (even the serum thing hit home)! But yeah, I'm looking formard to next weeks episode. And Lola <3

This show is shaping up to be great!
It seems to be slowly improving, but, honestly, if it didn't have the title and MCU connection, no one would be tuning into this lackluster action show.Expanded thoughts at my blog: http://sparebedroom.wordpress.com/201...
Still, I keep tuning in. So they must be doing enough right.

I think this show is getting a bit better too. I just wished they had a major villain to follow, but judging by the current episode, it seems like there is some kind of villain giving out centipedes to people.
Wow, 4 episodes in and it is still shockingly bad. Skye might be the worst TV character of the year.

I like Skye's character. So far, I like the show. I does seem to move a little slow, but I think my impatience with the longer (series) story arc is also a measure of how invested I already am in the show. I also liked the centipede/hydra thing. But admittedly, the whole cutting off a foot, doesn't have quite the same mystique. Plus, the other feet are already there.


So, what are your thoughts on this series so far?
