Agents of SHIELD. Season 1 Discussion Thread

Well, I pointed out the idea of a computer that can process so much information that it can predict the future. Then I saw MODOK's wiki page basically said the same thing.
 
By the way, it might be worth pointing out that while alleged "clairvoyance" can theoretically involve precognition, it's not exclusively about seeing the future. It means sensing things beyond the range of the normal senses, including things in the past or far away in the present. It doesn't mean mind reading either, just perception of things not present (it's French for "clear vision").
 
Yeah, although the wiki article also has that covered. I was just addressing whether Person of Interest did it first.
 
Think of it like this, if the Clairvoyant turned out to be a random person would that qualify as enjoyable? It HAS to be someone significant. I don't think Victoria fits that description. She's already fairly significant in the role she's currently in.
It could easily be someone completely new to the show but well-known to the fanbase.

Exactly.

Uhhh, what? Victoria doesn't fit the description of someone significant because she's already fairly significant? :confused:
.

Yes. It would be like saying we're going to be very happy to find out who's been feeding the walkers on the Walking Dead and then it turns out to be the Governor.
 
Down, down, dow, oh wait we reference or have movie related guest star, jump up, then down, down, level off into slow decline. But it is getting better just taking a long time.
 

While it's not a mega hit, the ratings appear to have stabilized. Add that to the fact that it's number two in its timeslot, and that it's produced by a Disney company airing on a Disney network (they would rather pay themselves than another company), and I think the chances of a renewal are better than 50%.

It's also advertising for the Marvel theatrical releases. Even if not directly, it keeps he brand in people's minds.

One thing I would like to know is how the ratings compare to the same timeslot this same time last year. Rises in those ratings are also helpful in the renewal decisions.

^This is the first scripted drama to do this well against NCIS in a LONG time.

That is another tick in the plus column for them.

I would be more surprised if the show wasn't renewed. I think it will get a second season, and find itself in a different slot on the schedule to give it a chance to grow an audience without being in competition with the CBS juggernaut NCIS.
 
I'm just ready for March 4th! Glad the Olympics are over.
Is it bad I didn't watch any of if? I mean any. Sure I saw highlights during the news but I never sat down to intentionally watch it.
