Is that even legal? Can a supreme court judge hold a position in a law firm? I wouldn't think so.
My problem with this article is they focus on Coulson's behavior. Particularly with regards to this last episode. When Akela asks Agent May what they did to Coulson, why are we to assume that she's asking because he's acting different? She had X-ray eyes. There's no reason not to assume she used them on Coulson. When they first met, she'd have use the X rays to check to see if he had other weapons hidden on him. So if he's a total robot, wouldn't she know it, and say that...
Also, 'Arrow' has a very interesting visual style, that stays true from episode to episode. Shield doesn't. It looks very generic.
I find her as believable as Jodie Foster was in essentially the same role. She was supposed to be a psychological profiler, after all, and not a field operative.
Having seen that the show got picked up for the back nine, I finally binge watched the first episodes. I liked it a lot. I assume the pitch was 'Silence of the Lambs' with Professor Moriarity instead of Hannibal Lechter. And of course they've thrown in the random conspiracy elements to tie the individual procedural episodes together. That seems like it's a requirement for any network drama these days. I haven't worked on a pilot in years that didn't have a secret...
I thought they've been playing the similarities to Howard's mother since the moment they introduced Bernadette's character.
There, fixed that for you. Breaking the 4th wall wasn't exactly a recent innovation. After The Office, Malcolm in the Middle, Parker Lewis Can't Lose, Burns and Allen, and a host of other shows, it's kind of odd to credit that style to Modern Family. Heck, even the Second Doctor did it in at least one episode.
You know, Ming-Na kicks some serious ass for a 50 year old. I hope they give her some opportunities to actually *act* at some point, since she's by far the most talented and accomplished actor on the show. I'm enjoying SHIELD so far. Not great, but decent. It has promise.
Oh man, I find some the one liners by/about her to be the best gags in the show. Like in "First Days" when she was super motivated for school, and Mitchell said "Sometimes I forget to factor in the Asian", or when Cameron said "Oh Honey, no one ever leaves home and doesn't come back" and Lily replied "I did".Maybe its because I have an adopted daughter from Asia and can relate.Anyway, I have enjoyed the new season so far. While I agree the show can be a bit hit or miss,...
Trying to write stories about Annie and Auggie in the field leads to awkward storytelling, true. But it worked quite well when Auggie was more like the comic character Oracle, the handicapped super computer hacker helping behind the scenes. I liked that dynamic very much. I thought it worked great and was very interesting. I think it has cheapened the story to see them in action scenes together in the field. And I think I'd check out completely if suddenly he regained his...
