I'm just gonna skip straight to the point and tell her to watch Agents lol
The announcement was a week ago. So she's definitely part of the second arc and haven't shown up yet.
Well it certainly feels like I'm watching a whole new series with beloved characters.
I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about this plot development and setting, but it has the right amount of tension keeping me very engaged.
... Also Coulson still has the best one-liners.

Finally saw the premier and gotta say: AoS is the ultimate comic show.
You can put these characters into basically any situation now and it's awesome. The dynamics work, the writing is very strong, and the mysteries unfold quickly.
I just love it.
Special shout-out to Mack and his fantastic entrance.

Just finished S4. The Ghost Rider stuff was awesome, but the LMD and Framework arcs took it to another level. I have no problem calling this the best comic book show on TV now. Hell, it might just be the best Marvel property put on screen period.
And fuck, the Mack stuff got me good. Pretty much had full on tears by the end of the last episode.

What I've been saying for the past weeks. Make a portal appear in outer space and in comes the Ghost Rider on a space biker and fire on his chain. Damn it would be epic!
I think someone else said earlier in the thread we probably won't see Fitz until the second part as he was in London shooting a movie for JJ Abrams during the filming of the first "pod."
BTW, I love how Mack in 15 seconds pointed out the ridiculous of Alien movies.
I have a hunch they're gonna pull a reverse "4,722 Hours" and have an episode focused entirely on Fitz's attempts on solving this problem. It'll be an acting showcase for Iain de Caestecker and an emotional gutpunch a la Futurama's "Jurassic Bark" and "Luck or the Fryrish", or LOST's "The Constant" with the timey-wimey related stuff.
Or that's what I'd want to happen.

yo i was not ready for that guy to get wrecked through the back of his head in the first episode. caught me off guard and grossed me out :(
aside from that, the episodes were amazing and i'm so fucking hyped for the rest of this season! bring it onnnn

i loved that moment
reminded me of the blood spray from S4 opener when the Rider was a horror movie monster
I got some real Dead Space vibes from the opening hour of the premiere. Music was on point, as always. McCreary still killing it.
Superior Star-Lord and the mechanic girl are great new additions to the cast.
I can't remember the last time I got excited to watch network TV on a Friday...

shotgun-axe is the best thing that happened to Mack.
And it looks awesome as well.
Finally saw this (thought it was starting at 9pm on Friday, not at 8pm... whoops!), and I'm mixed but mostly positive.
All told I think the twist was cool, but I can't help but be disappointed because... while "prison colony Earth" is pretty cool, a true modern cosmic story still feels cooler to me. So it was sort of swapping one idea that I was super into for one that I'm kinda into. Thusfar I really can't see where they're going with this, or how they'll stretch it to ~10 episodes, but if the SHIELD staff is good at one thing, it's delivering a fun ride. So I'm definitely on board for wherever this is going.
New cast is fine, the evil Kree dude and his magic ball lady are both fine. A bit cliche but the visual identity of the ruling class is cool enough to make up for it. Deke is a bit boring, the same "surly, self-interested white dude" that we've seen from this show a lot, so he'll have to put in work to keep my attention. Tess is alright, she's sort of in the same space as him - jury's out until I see more (but the actress is gorgeous which, uhh, gives her a leg up).
More than anything though, as always, goddamn at their "ship" effects. They always looks SO much better than a network TV show has any right to. That scene with May piloting the trawler was super impressive, even by their already high standards.

Shotgun axe needs to be upgraded with one of those Kree blades.
The definitely went out of their way to establish that the Kree have both axes and shotguns. It's really only a matter of time.
You see that Kree axe, ....then that shotgun for the human hunger games...100% coming back.
So, end of episode 2 speculation..
whatever happens to earth will be shortly after they are kidnapped. Fitz rebuilds the framework and programs instructions on how to get back into the weather report, along with Aida as the backup bartender. I also like the idea of LMD fitz showing up.
It's looking like we won't see Fitz until the fifth episode on 12/22, based on the synopsis.
Not a single actor from the recurring/guest cast in space so this might be completely based around Fitz.
With the surprising help of Lance Hunter, nothing will stop Fitz from finding the lost team as his incredible journey is revealed, on "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," FRIDAY, DEC. 22 (9:01-10:01 p.m. EST), on The ABC Television Network, streaming and on demand.

Guest starring are Nick Blood as Lance Hunter, Joel Stoffer as Enoch, Catherine Dent as General Hale, Lola Glaudini as Polly Hinton, Lexy Kolker as Robin Hinton, Zibby Allen as Lt.

I'm not familiar with how this works but are they going to add the new episodes regularly to Hulu? I'd assume so since they put the premiere but I don't know for sure. This is my first time watching the show fully caught up.
looks like my speculation was right. Yay! I hope it's as good as it can be - because, honestly, I think Iain's the best actor the show currently has. Jed and Maurissa shouldn't waste the chance to have that man have the spotlight for an entire episode.
Re-watched the final 7-8 episodes of season 2 and I am so glad that Bobbi and Hunter are no more. I can't stand their characters.
Crazy talk. Bobbi and Hunter are part of the reason the show jumped into greatness with season 2. Hunter was hilarious and Bobbi was a complete badass.
Excited to have Hunter back soon.
I also never liked Bobbi and Hunter. They're just sort of... generic. Mack felt like he added a new perspective to the cast, while they just took up space. Hunter got better in S3 when they went full comic relief with him, but Mockingbird never really brought anything to the table beyond some cool action scenes.
I think the current lineup (Coulson, Daisy, May, Fitz, Simmons, Mack, and Yo-Yo) is the best the show's ever had. No dead weight.

100% agree the cast is perfect and they all have great chemistry with each other.
