Not a fan of the eye makeup, but I am a fan of the way this season started.

The Pennance Stare was a Danny Ketch/Noble Kale thing. The Johnny Blaze/Zarathos Rider had a lot of hellfire, Ketch/Kale had hellfire, animated chains, and The Stare, and Robbie seems to have more knives and chains and hellfire, but his spirit is more like Zarathos (a demon) than Kale (the Angel of Vengeance, an agent of both Heaven and Hell)

Of course, it seems like the MCU Robbie has a spirit of Vengeance. Not like they haven't changed things for the show before.

What a loving drop from causing an avalanche thousands of feet away and bringing a SHIELD base crumbling around her to 'Can't hold off a steel shelf consistently' though.

I think it comes from going "Hey these are some cool powers. Now let me do other stuff for a while," to "Must use my powers all the time. And screw those gauntlets that help keep my arms from breaking, they can probably track them."

Pretty much what I was getting at. Terrorists don't have to have to be Arab.

Here's a weird thing I noticed - if Yoyo was a Columbian national, why does she have old friends in Miami now that she relocated to LA from Columbia a year ago under Shield protection? It's not impossible, but it's implausible and feels like the writers were kind of lazy. They wanted to keep her event and Daisy's event geographically separate to avoid story cross-contamination but made her "Hispanic American Lady" in the process, which wasn't really her identity before these couple of episodes

Well, on a quick Google search, Florida has the highest population of Columbian Americans. Yoyo and her brother were acting as revolutionaries, so it's possible they had friends who already fled the country.

Also, Uncle Eli did not look all that disturbed by the Darkhold. He looked excited. I suspect he's got a few more secrets.

It might also just be something the book does. It might enthrall you to make you want to use it once you read it.

I was super happy with this season beginning because it felt like a totally fresh breath of air with the format change-up and I am probably one of the few SHIELD fans who was so sick of Ward that each time he miserably came back from death, I would throw a pillow at the TV and yell "enough with the creep already!"

But already this season feels like it's falling into the same mid-season doldrums and being tied to the movie schedule totally blows. It's still magnitudes better than the DC offerings but I am finding I prefer the Netflix series since they don't have to pull their punches as much. Not being stuck with the standard serial television episode cliff-hanger probably helps there too.

This year's mid season doldrums are a crazy person who is painted orange and his opponent. One of them will be elected to rule a country! Neither will get anything done because the other party has already said so! gently caress.

Okay, I think I hate the US election even more than I have over the past few months of political commercials, just because of this cliffhanger.

I didn't even think of an LMD being a perfect counter to mind-altering magic but it totally makes sense.

I caught the hint with "no human mind could handle all that knowledge."

My local ABC affiliate in Portland is no longer going to be carried by my cable company. When do new episodes show upon Hulu, and how long are they available?

Most local ABC channels still broadcast OTA so it's also worth seeing if you can get a signal the old fashioned alway.

Agents of Shield managed to keep the 1st overall trend on twitter in the US from its east coast air time until at least now. They must be doing something right with the show.

I was just coming to post this. So the headline "The last part of season 4 will reward long time viewers" was actually a hidden pun.

Because ABC hates us.

I really was not anticipating enjoying this episode so much. Holy poo poo.

Also random agents got a lot of lines this time.

Honestly I think they may have been afraid of Brett Dalton shooting scenes for the show getting leaked. They wanted his return to be a surprise for the fans, so we get a six week delay. Blame the internet.

AIDA is trying to round up the whole team now. She knows Daisy/Skye and Jemma aren't under the framework control, so I wonder what her plan is.

Edit: lol bad commercial timing. United CEO interview commercial followed by plane crash type situation Grey's Anatomy.

I also wonder whether the framework is actually running 7 billion fully conscious people all the time, or whether some of them are just "cheap" emulations.

It's probably using the computer techniques where the heavy duty AI is only simulated when a real person is near by.
