Agents of SHIELD - Season 2 Discussion Threads. (Spoilers Likely)

Or she might be used come May when the Agents of SHIELD references what is going to happen in Civil War. They might set it up beautifully like the we found it, notify Maria Hill to call the Avengers scene before the Age of Ultron

 

That's what I meant by connecting character, a character who appears in episodes specifically tied to the movies.

 

More Agent 13 works for me - but I agree we won't likely see her until after the next CA movie.

 

Looks like the Mockingbird spin-off will be getting a pilot after all.

 

"not a spin-off"??? In what way is it not a spin-off?

 

Sign me up.

 

Relax, you are just having a little trouble comprehending how ultrapompous some people can be when they're trying to seem important.

 

It probably means its a show whose origins may be with Agents of SHIELD, but it won't be as closely tied to it's mothership series as we might have previously expected.

Less Buffy The Vampire Slayer/Angel and more Cheers/Frasier.

 

Being 35 years younger than you are, I saw that dealio the other way around in reruns.

Why is Lou Grant Younger and funny all of a sudden?

 

Yeah, but that's still a spin-off. I have no idea what kind of weirdly narrow definition of "spin-off" they're using if they think that "an entirely new project solely focused on the two characters to continue their story" somehow doesn't qualify as one. I mean, that's pretty much the definition of a spin-off.

 

I kid! I kid! If I had said a realistic number, it might have been more insulting than preposterous.

I was 1 years old when Lou Grant Started, but I feel old as dirt when I see the filth that the kids today are into.

 

It doesn't make sense to me either. The only thing I can think of is that maybe it doesn't really tie into any of the specific story arcs, other than the Bobbi and Hunter's relationship.

 

I read another article whose interpretation is that Bobbi and Hunter might not actually leave Agents of SHIELD to do their own show, that they might be on both shows at the same time. Maybe it's a prequel, or something that would go between seasons of AoS. So it wouldn't be a spin-off because they wouldn't be off AoS. I still think that might be a bit of a narrow way of defining the term, though.

 

You're talking about this show as if you were there as a participant in the experience, when in reality you share a birthdate with Mary Tyler Moore. In all likelihood like myself you caught this in syndication, rather than that you were an adult (with 2 kids) talking about the jocularity of the new episode around a watercooler in an office circa 1971... Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I'm sorry if you think I was trying to hurt you.

My bad.

 

Is it just me, or does this new season seem to be pretty crowded. I hope the focus is still on our core characters, but if there is a Mockingbird show I hope that the characters leave Agents. There can be too much of a good thing.
