I'm liking this. Each episode has gotten a little better. The production values and overall storylines have overshadowed the many little flaws.

I like the show. I'm a bit dissapointed that a show about super heroes is focusing on a story arc about an enemy that is turning people into cyborgs though. so far they've only faced one guy that had "super"/mutant powers, and that was the first. I'm also not a big of big story arcs,

The show is NOT about super heroes. It is about people living in a world with super heroes.

It's about SHIELD. their job is to handle super heroes. 

 

either way I like it, but I Would rather have people that have xray visions that cybernetic eyes and super soldier implants.

No. The AVENGERS are the superheroes. That is a division of SHIELD. The rest of SHIELD does not involve them. Thought they made this clear in the first episode.

sigh...

 

yes, and shield's primary purpose is to do what ? that's right to police the new people that's growing dangerous super powers in the world. they cooperate with some of them to a degree with the avengers program to help take down the super villains, but they handle the lesser "mutants" and handle the prisons for pretty much all of them. 

 

a Show about shield agents, you expect them to take on some badass people, not people who's being used by a cyber doctor with control issues.

What/who told you this show was going to be about heroes? It's about the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division which is an espionage and law-enforcement agency.

To everyone who still thinks this series is going to be about super heroes, keep waiting. Before any of these episodes aired, months before the first episode even, they stated that this show wouldn't be about well established super heroes. They stated that it would be about Coulson and his group of agents handling strange new cases after what happened in New York. Yes, that also means newly discovered superhumans around the globe, but not superheroes like the Avengers, X-Men or any other Marvel Comics team.

Super heroes was the wrong term, but people with powers. I didn't expect to see the established super heroes there. but they should be capturing people with powers. 

 

and they should cut off those stupid useless rear engines on the plane, they annoy me every time I see them :p

Who says they should be capturing people with powers? S.H.I.E.L.D. means Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division so they do a whole lot more than capturing people with powers. I don't think you fully understand what S.H.I.E.L.D. does :p

I may be wrong, but I get the feeling that light and cheesy are what they are aiming for. Serious stuff almost never happens on our network TV. 

I think so too, but I think they could take it a little more seriously.  I'm enjoying the show, but it does come off as hokey from time to time...

    • This is how much iPhone 18 Pro could cost after Apple's price hike confirmed

      By Phillip0web · Posted

      They aren't going to want to. Most would just go with the 17 Pro and save money. Why would they want to spend $300 for basically the same thing? It's not worth it if there are hardly any changes from year to year.
    • Windows 11 version 26H2 is now available for testing in the latest preview build

      By Steven P. · Posted

      24H2 rolled out to the Release Preview Channel in early June 2024, so this coming a bit later in the Experimental Channel (formerly Dev) doesn't really say much more than earlier H2 releases that came out in October. I am not sure what the thinking is here by putting it in Experimental, one would think that the 26H2 stamp means features are locked down and it's now bug tested until October? I don't even pretend to understand Microsoft's strategy for Windows Insider Program though

      By Fiza Ali · Posted

      Nothing Ear (a) and CMF Buds Pro 2 with active noise cancellation drop to lowest price ever by Fiza Ali With Prime Day 2026 scheduled to run from Tuesday 23 to Friday 26 June, Amazon has already begun rolling out early access offers ahead of the main event.

Nothing Ear (a) are equipped with 11mm dynamic drivers featuring a PM1 + TPU diaphragm. For noise control, the earbuds offer active noise cancellation (ANC) of up to 45dB across frequencies reaching 5,000Hz. The smart ANC algorithm adapts to surrounding noise levels, while a Transparency Mode allows users to remain aware of their environment when needed. Connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.3, with support for AAC, SBC, and LDAC audio codecs. Additional features include IP54-rated earbuds for dust and splash resistance, paired with an IPX2-rated charging case. Furthermore, users also benefit from pinch controls, in-ear detection, Google Fast Pair, Microsoft Swift Pair, dual-device connectivity, and a low-latency mode designed for gaming and video playback.

When it comes to the battery, the earbuds house a 46mAh lithium-ion battery, while the charging case contains a 500mAh cell.

With ANC enabled, battery life is rated at up to 5.5 hours per charge and up to 24.5 hours combined with the case. Finally, fast charging is also supported that should provide up to 10 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge with ANC turned off. Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds (Black): $53.20 (Amazon US) - 33% The CMF Buds Pro 2 feature a dual-driver audio system consisting of an 11mm bass driver and a 6mm micro-planar tweeter. The earbuds use PU (polyurethane) and PET (polyethylene terephthalate) titanium-coated diaphragms and are tuned by Nothing to deliver balanced audio performance. They further support active noise cancellation of up to 50dB across a frequency range of up to 5,000Hz, and noise control features include a Smart ANC algorithm, Adaptive ANC, Transparency Mode, and Clear Voice Technology 2.0. For calls, the CMF Buds Pro 2 use a total of six microphones and feature an environmental noise-cancelling algorithm, Clear Voice Technology 3.0, and Wind Noise Reduction 3.0 that should improve voice clarity during conversations.

      I'll move to it when it hits beta, I suspect.

      The entire world moved to the vastly superior and now universally supported Dolby Atmos technology a very long time ago, mate.
