Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D a Fangirl Review

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D a Fangirl Review

If you follow my blog, then you know by now that Joss Whedon can do no wrong in my eyes.   So it’s needless to say that I’m loving Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.  To be back in the Marvel Universe on a weekly basis with new stories, a new team and Agent Coulson is every fan’s dream come true, well at least it’s one of my geeky dreams!  

The first two episodes of the series have me excited for what’s to come down the road.  Between the possibility of tying in story lines from upcoming movies and perhaps a cameo or two by the big guys is enough to keep me watching every week.  I don’t need a cameo to keep me watching, but how great was this week’s?  I guess he still has his “eye” on Agent Coulson!

As with every Joss Whedon show I’ve ever watched, I need time to fall in love with the characters, Agent Coulson excepted.  He has a great way of sucking you in to these people’s lives and before you know it, you’re hooked and you wonder, “How did he do that to me again?”  I already like all of them and I’m eager to find out more about them as the show progresses.

 

Without a doubt the best part of the show is Agent Coulson!  Clark Gregg is great and you can tell in his performance how much he enjoys playing this character.  “How did Coulson live?” will be an ongoing mystery throughout the entire first season, heck maybe longer.  Who knows how deep the plot line goes or how intricate it is to the entire series. I have my own theories on it of course, (clone anyone), but I don’t need all the answers in the first 2 episodes.  I’ll enjoy the reveal when Joss decides to unveil it.  For now I just enjoy him being the leader and bringing the team together.  Don’t think for a second that Coulson doesn’t know what he’s doing with Skye, he knows more than he’s letting on and I’m eager to watch it unfold. 

Are you in for the long haul with S.H.I.E.L.D? What did you think of the first two episodes? Who is the Rising Tide damn it? I need Level 7 clearance now!

For more on what I thought of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D be sure to listen to my podcast Strange Adventures with my co-hosts @NicholasStrange from strangeamusements.com and Holly Strange.  I’ll have all the ways to find us below and for all your nerdy needs please LIKE us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter @Fangrladventure.

Fall TV podcast part 2

The Fall TV premieres are upon us!  So far, I’ve watched Fox’s “Sleepy Hollow” and “Dad’s”, but tonight starts what is sure to be a great week in TV…hopefully. 

Will Beckett say “yes” to Castle?  The ABC drama returns for a 6^th season and needless to say, that question has been on the minds of every Castle fan over the summer.    If she doesn’t say yes, Richard, I’m available!  Tune in tonight at 10pm EST to find out!

Marvel’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.”, perhaps the seasons most anticipated show for all us nerds out there, premieres Tuesday night at 8pm EST!  Reminder to everyone who listens to our Strange Adventures Podcast that we will be doing a podcast right after the show, and it will be available to download on September 25^th!  We’re going to review the show and discuss what we think and where we think the show will go in future episodes! Be sure to check it out.

Also this week, on Thursday night we have “The Crazy Ones,” starring Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar on CBS at 9pm, and Michael J Fox returns to primetime on NBC with “The Michael J Fox Show” also on at 9pm!  Hmm…my DVR will be working overtime on Thursdays!

Still having trouble deciding what shows you want to watch this fall? It’s not too late to get informed, and get your DVR prepped for what might be one of the better fall TV lineups in a while!  All you need to do is click one of the links below and listen to our podcast!  There are so many shows this season that we had to break it up into 2 episodes.  Part 1 covers the smaller networks and Part 2 covers the big 3 (ABC, NBC and CBS).  Here’s all the ways you can find and listen to our podcast.

A Fangirl Adventures Fall TV Preview

The Fall TV season was so much simpler when I was a younger! We had 4 networks (ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox) and with shows mostly going for more than 5 seasons, new shows were few and far between.  Nowadays shows are lucky to make it to 5 episodes before getting cancelled and sometimes it only takes 1 before they are.

 

The 2013 fall lineup looks good, and I actually have more shows to watch this season than ever before.  My most anticipated show of year without a doubt is Marvel’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D”!  Coulson Lives and I couldn’t be more stoked to find out how that happened.  In Whedon, I trust and with this show being on ABC and not Fox, we’re sure to get more than 12 episodes and a guarantee it will be aired in the right order.  Whether or not we see the big superheroes in the TV universe will remain to be seen, but nobody does TV the way Joss does TV, so I feel we’re in for something special with this series.  Fingers crossed anyway.

On top of the new shows, I can’t wait for my returning favorites, Castle, Walking Dead, Arrow and, my guilty pleasure, Nashville!  I’m usually looking forward to Glee as well, but without Finn, I don’t know if I can watch it.  I’ll have to wait and see.

So what shows are you most interested in? Do you have your DVR filled to capacity with new shows like Dawn does?  Which shows are you excited to see come back?  Maybe you need help deciding what shows to get into or what shows you should catch up on with Netflix so that you can watch the new season? 

If the above applies to you, then you need to download Part 1 of the latest Strange Adventures Podcast where we discuss all the new shows coming out this fall across all networks.  We had so much to cover that we had to break it up into 2 episodes.   Part 1 is out now on iTunes and Stitcher, Part 2 will be out this Thursday (9/19), and on Tuesday 9/24, we will release a detailed review of the first episode of our most anticipated show of the season: Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D!
