I read a great review of this on CBR the other day.

Anyone liking it? Ye Olde Black Widow subplot good?

Okay, I just looked it up.

I kinda like the idea--especially since I didn't see Whedon's name anywhere near it--but I'm not a fan of prequels. They tend to depress the hell out of me. That's why I'm not bothering with Batter Call Saul. I mean, I already know what happened to the guy.

The only time they haven't put me in a dreary mood is when they're in videogame format.

I didn't even bother checking out Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was never a fan of the non-superpowered parts of the MCU.

Is that the one where Bob Odenkirk opens up a cake bakery?

It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness.

Been watching it since it came out, but quite often watch it days late as I have very little interest in it.
The acting is incredibly wooden, even from Atwell, and it's just constantly goes on about how a womans place isn't as an agent etc.
It's too damn "try hard" to be making a PC statement in an era that was not PC.
I will be glad when AoS is back and this is finished.

It has promise if they can get away from all this womens lib saturation and stop being so damn cheesy as well.
I even know women who roll their eyes about how much this show is concentrating on the sexism side of it.

It was okay. Mostly, the best part was the cameos by Vanko, Zola, the Howling Commandos, etc...

Seemed like a sop to the SJWs rather than something they hoped would become a continuing series.

It was all right to watch but I will not miss it on the schedule next year.

Sequel, old boy, sequel.

I like Agents of SHIELD (the first season was mostly dumb, then turned good after Winter Soldier and the second was cool) but this just bored the shit out of me. I'll finish watching it at some point because I'm I guess I'm invested in the MCU continuity but I'll probably do it while playing Mario Kart so it doesn't count as wasted time.

Its a prequel to Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D as its about the origin of that organisation. For Captain America, it is a spin off, not a sequel.

Pretty much my feelings. In fact, I completely forgot about the final episode and only ended up watching it a week later, just before AoS returned from its mid season break.
