Spoilers Agents of SHIELD- The Final Season Discussion

There’s really not a weak link in the cast except I think after season 1 Ward was never well utilized. The Fitz/Simmons relationship and Daisy’s journey of self discovery are the emotional cores though.

When was Yo-yo officially considered a regular? At once point she seemed on the same level of importance as melty metal guy. Then he just went away Yo-yo appeared more and more.

I’d probably put Deke at the bottom because he was in comic relief mode even when not appropriate for the scene. And Bobbie a little lower on the list because she had this way of seeming constantly expressing being annoyed by the ridiculous things everyone else is doing with her facial expression.
 
Watching late season 1 knowing who the baddies are is different. The behaviors of those characters actually do track to if they’re playing a long game.
 
I hate to sound like an idiot, but I can never remember which of these, <>, was greater than, and which was less than.
The little mouth wants to eat the bigger side. Though in that case, they're being used as arrows.
 
I'm surprised no one posted this sooner (and that it's been out for a week and I haven't seen it):

If the whole sequence start-to-finish could use the series' credits typeface and McCreary's SHIELD Overture?

Perfection.
 
^ Yeah, my math teacher a lifetime ago told us to imagine it as a gator chomping <
(EDIT: with the Gator wanting to eat the bigger meal...)

She used to also always tell us that "My Dear Aunt Sally says we multiply first." and I thought she was just senile and talking about her Aunt Sally I didn't realize it was a mnemonic My Dear Aunt Sally - MDAS - Multiply Divide Add Subtract. I must have missed the day she explained it lol.

Yeah, you read left to right so of course pointing to the right indicates increase.
I don't think I was even taught that, it's just self evident. I don't think I've ever questioned it until now.
 
I keep forgetting the rule lately. I usually have to think a bit before I remember which is which. Welcome to your 60s, Forbin. :lol:
 
I was taught the alligator thing, but it's also kind of visually intuitive; the larger/wider end is greater, the narrower end is less.
 
Wait, Peggy Carter appeared in the season 2 premiere? Was that before or after the show?

I did not recognize her my first time through.
 
Quite soon.

And the stuff with Peggy on Agents of SHIELD takes place in between Captain America the First Avenger and her own show.
 
It's also weird watching these episodes now knowing where Mack ends up. From a newbie's perspective he's a rando probably doomed to be 24ed, not a future main who ends up in charge of the whole organization.
 
Yeah, I definitely remember thinking back then that I didn't expect Mack to last long. It'll definitely be interesting to watch his early episodes again.

If I recall, this was before Agent Carter aired. It was a midseason Hiatus show between the two halves of Season 2.
