"End of the Beginning"

 

Agents Garrett (Bill Paxton) and Triplett are back to help Coulson's team track down S.H.I.E.L.D.'S nefarious enemy--the Clairvoyant. But will Deathlok destroy them all to protect his master's identity?

 

"Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." stars Clark Gregg as Agent Phil Coulson, Ming-Na Wen as Agent Melinda May, Brett Dalton as Agent Grant Ward, Chloe Bennet as Skye, Iain De Caestecker as Agent Leo Fitz and Elizabeth Henstridge as Agent Jemma Simmons.

 

Guest starring are Bill Paxton as Agent John Garrett, J. August Richards as Deathlok, Saffron Burrows as Agent Victoria Hand, Maximiliano Hernandez as Agent Jasper Sitwell, Titus Welliver as Agent Felix Blake, B.J. Britt as Agent Antoine Triplett and Brad Dourif as Thomas Nash.

 

"End of the Beginning" was written by Paul Zbyszewski and directed by Bobby Roth.

Think that was one of the only good episodes there has been.

 

Meh, clearly there's two audiences and apparently the biggest share are expecting Hulk v Wolverine. I expect more humans in S.H.I.E.L.D. I never like Nick and his crew for that reason when I was a kid reading comics. But as an adult, I kind of like it and like the cheesy Saturday morning thing much less.

 

The preview for the  next episode looks like the Beginning of the End to me. Two women going at it in cheesy wonder woman costumes totally out of place with the other characters and environments. It's over. But maybe not, I assume that's what the over-the-top comic till ya drop crowd has been clamoring for. The guy in the tank, I can live with that but that would be CGI. Wonder woman reborn and more cheesy costumes (the reason comics are difficult to translate to the big screen well), I'm not feelin' it.

I still think this show has alot to offer, yes it's cheesy in bits but it's getting good now and when the Clairvoyant is revealed I feel the show could get very interesting. As a big Marvel fan I am sticking with it till cancellation but I can't see that coming anytime soon.

Agreed. I like the Clairvoyant arc, and have liked it so far. But if they get too 70's cheep superhero costumey ... We'll see how the next episode goes but the stills don't look inviting to me. :/

From one group of Heroes to another. Marvel have announced today that Adrian Pasdar, an alum of the NBC series, has signed on to play Glenn Talbot on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

n a sit down interview with Marvel they asked Adrian how it he got picked for the spot for Glenn Talbot. "In the same way that Iron Man [in ?Marvel?s Avengers Assemble?] came up. I got a call from my good friend, (Jeph Loeb), ?Would you come and do this role?? and I read the character description and I thought, ?Oh man. Here it is again. The sanctimonious [jerk]. That?s what they?re coming to me for.? [laughs] His way?s the only way! I said, ?Jeph, are you trying to tell me something? No, not at all! Nobody can play this quite like you, but no.? [laughs] So he came to me and I said yes.

Synopsis For AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Episode 17 "TURN, TURN, TURN

"Turn, Turn, Turn" - Coulson and his team find themselves without anyone they can trust, only to discover that they are trapped with a traitor in their midst, on "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," Tuesday, April 8 (8:00-9:01 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Saturday I got into the mood to watch this series again. Boy was it a good thing for me to stop watching this for a while because I'm loving it now! Started watching at episode 6 on Saturday and I am now at episode 10. I must say that I'm not annoyed by the cheesiness any more at all. Oh, and Fitz owns if you ask me. That prank with the broom that scared even himself was quite funny :p

?Marvel?s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? has recruited yet another special guest star with fan-favorite actor/comedian Patton Oswalt, who will join the cast as Agent Eric Koenig in an upcoming episode of the hit series.

Koenig, who first appeared in SGT. FURY AND HIS HOWLING COMMANDOS #27, was a part of Fury?s original team of World War II soldiers in the comics. Oswalt, perhaps best known for his roles in ?King of Queens,? ?Ratatouille? and countless other films and TV series, came onto ?Marvel?s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? in perhaps the most straightforward way possible?he was simply asked.

    • First time clicking on a Sayan Sen article after he started making clickbait, vague headlines recently. Didn't read, just came here to say the headline doesn't look like very cheap, vague clickbait this time. Are you okay?
    • Good review, and yeah the benchmark breakdown is pretty clear but also a little messy in a good way. It’s kinda interesting to see where the RX 9070 GRE slides in between the 7800 XT and the 9070 XT , especially when it comes to AI tasks and Blender style workloads. The side by side with Nvidia’s RTX 5070 and 4070 makes it feel obvious just how competitive the mid range GPU scene has gotten lately, and that’s great for creators and gamers too since you can pick based on your priorities rather than only chasing one single thing.
    • That's it. I finally uninstalled Firefox because they often keep pushing buggy updates, only to test them later and make users suffer. No longer is it my alternative browser to Edge. What a waste of energy. Firefox is bad for the environment, just like Chrome (wasting RAM/energy).
    • Microsoft Weekly: new Surface, Windows 11 26H2, and more by Taras Buria This week's news recap is here, with Microsoft announcing Windows 11 version 26H2, launching new Surface devices powered by Snapdragon X2 processors, GTA VI preorder date and cover art, fresh Windows 11 preview builds, a quirky phone-sized e-reader with a physical dial, and more.

And, of course, you may find a word or two about older versions. Windows 11 version 26H2 is now official. Alongside Windows 11's new preview builds released this week, Microsoft confirmed version 26H2, which is coming later this year as an enablement package based on the same platform as versions 24H2 and 25H2. A newly published blog post details what IT admins should do to prepare for the upcoming launch. Next, we have new Windows 11 bugs. Users report that this month's security updates for Windows 11 cause all sorts of issues, including BitLocker bugs, OneDrive issues, black screens of death, and third-party integration in Office apps. Microsoft has not confirmed those yet, but it acknowledged other issues with its operating system. What Microsoft has confirmed is a bug where Recycle Bin delete prompts display internal file names instead of actual ones, and a year-old Windows JScript compatibility bug caused by security-focused engine changes. Moving to more positive news, Microsoft and Adobe are working on improving Windows performance in popular creative apps like Photoshop. Thanks to SPGO optimizations, users can expect up to 20% better performance. Finally, we have a few useful articles that can help you recover your PC or make it perform better. For one, we published a guide detailing what to do if your computer cannot boot after a clean Windows 11 install. There are two important steps you can try to get your system back to working in no time. Additionally, there is a more detailed guide on various CPU performance modes that could notably improve performance.

This week, Microsoft announced its newest Surface devices powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon X2 processors. There is the 12th-gen Surface Pro and the 8th-gen Surface Laptop. Both devices feature little to no visual differences compared to their predecessors from 2024, and most changes hide inside, including a better processor, faster graphics, enhanced NPUs, and more. The Surface Laptop also received a new haptic trackpad. Mozilla is currently working on a major Firefox redesign, and earlier this week, it published a roadmap of upcoming features and highlights of the upcoming "Project Nova" rework. Files, one of the best file managers for Windows 10 and 11, has been updated in the Preview channel with a long-requested feature. Tree View is finally available in version 4.1.4, allowing you to quickly browse deeply nested folders without leaving the main view. In addition, the update improved the Windows Fonts folder, allowing you to preview each font without opening the default viewer.

It also includes patches for ARM-based Windows PCs, OneDrive removal improvements, and more.

Reviews are in Here is the hardware and software we reviewed this week Earlier this week, we reviewed the DuRoBo Krono, a portable, phone-sized e-reader with some interesting physical controls. This device has an Apple Watch-like dial for page turning, frontlight adjustment, and more. Software is simple and no-nonsense, but it also lacks some useful features and customization. Overall, the device proved interesting, but not flawless. On the gaming side Learn about upcoming game releases, Xbox rumors, new hardware, software updates, freebies, deals, discounts, and more. Forza Horizon 6 received two big updates this week. Alongside the Series 2 content update, developers pushed plenty of bug fixes and balancing tweaks. However, they also had to acknowledge the Eliminator CR-farming exploit and shut down the online mode temporarily. Luckily, only a few days later, another fix arrived, which re-enabled Eliminator and patched the exploit. Microsoft announced new games for Game Pass subscribers. Those include EA Sports FC 26, Junkster, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Abyssus, RV There Yet?, and more. Some existing games are leaving the catalog, so be sure to check out the full list here.
