I was actually very disappointed in this show, which is surprising because I love most of Joss Whedon's work. I say most because there are some film and TV shows he's done that I have never seen. Overall, I love his writing style so I was excited for this but it really disappointed me.
Everyone know that pilot is usually the worst and most series get better but I'm still on the fence. I was expecting more from this show but it just hasn't captured me all the way. The cheesy, comedic one liners worked so well in The Avengers but in this show, they're just really cheesy and it makes me cringe.
I've only seen the first two episodes so I'm hoping it gets better after a while. Watching all the Marvel Phase One films, S.H.I.E.L.D. seemed pretty bad ass and cutthroat but this shows just makes them seem weak. I mostly blame Disney and the rating system for the ABC network. Despite the huge following Marvel has, the content is becoming really watered down for the sake of having a TV show fit the PG, _G-13 rating.
Unlike, most I don't have an issue with the effects or anything else because I know a TV series will never have the same budget a Hollywood block buster has, but I'm just not sold yet. I have enjoyed the shows "Arrow" and even the series premiere of "The Tomorrow People" more than Agents of SHIELD and that show is just a huge rip off of other films.
I was hoping that Marvel and Disney would use this show as a platform to introduce some secondary Avengers/Marvel superheroes but so far I've seen nothing. But I guess this is about SHIELD and not the Avengers. Joss Whedon should have took a totally different approach. But I will continue to watch with hopes that it will get better
