How long did it take before Dick Grayson or Bucky Barnes had badass fighting ability?

The fighting on this show makes no sense. Skye beats a group of Hydra this week and barely beat one dude a month ago. She can draw Agent 33, who almost beat May. May was even with Bobbi, who managed to do well against a Kree, a guy who beat Sif.

Flashback scene with Koenigs better than this whole episode. Even though episode was great too

Yes Raina was telling the truth but there was still no doubt she was planning on using that information for her own goals. That's the beauty of the episode. We expected Raina to **** things up, or at least SHIELD, but having Gonzales extend the Olive branch and have Jiaying single-handedly start a war is what makes the twist so shocking

I really liked the episode. Enjoyed both the twists with Ward (always great to have evil Ward involved), Raina and Jiaying. Really hope we get to see Cal tearing up the jet.

You can dislike the episode, that's your opinion, but you can't argue against fact. A twist is a twist. Something the general viewer didn't see coming.

Oh you saw it coming from a mile away? Congratulations, you're Raina. Go make lots of money on the stocks.

Shows like AoS need conflict to keep going. Hydra is taken care of and AoU is over, so the writers needed something new. It's only natural for SHIELD and the inhumans to clash now, and the writers found a creative way of doing it. If you don't like it, that's your opinion. All I'm saying is if you don't like that, comic book-based TV shows and movie probably aren't for you

Hi guys

So I watched the first 3 eps of season 1 back when this originally aired and I didn't like it that much.

Does it get better? And specifically, are we ever introduced to actual people with super powers and cool stuff? Or is it just a bunch of S.H.I.EL.D. versus other regular humans all the time?

Yea Thingy it gets much better

After Turn, Turn, Turn (ep 11 or something in season 1) the show becomes GOAT. If you've been following the MCU movies there are nice tie in episodes.

Would highly recommend pushing through the drudge in season 1 and watching every episode up to now

Yes we get powered people. Don't expect any major cameos though

That episode did not make sense.

"We all hate what Coulson's been doing, but we'll agree to his declaration of being director because 'Ultron'." Nothing that happened in AoU changed anything about any of their complaints.

And Jiaying's behavior at the end was both crazy and stupid. It seems like if she's crazy and stupid, we should have seen some indication of it before now.

There were inferences in both the show and movie that Coulson was responsible for providing the helicarrier.

I know. So what? No one ever said that SHIELD didn't accomplish things. They were complaining about things being too secret.

Well in light of recent events maybe they figured that saving the day was more important than full disclosure. Plus his solution allowed them to have oversight over everything. Seems like an amiable compromise.

Haha, great line. The best parts of this show are the one liners like that thrown in every now and then aka avengers style.

Thought the finale was v mediocre. Wayyyy too much hand to hand fighting and not enough special effects/inhuman awesomeness.

The tension and suspense was also pretty lackluster and jiaying was a terrible villain. Seems like they really rushed things.

Oh despite my gripe about too much hand to hand combat, bobbi fighting ward/33 was SICK and for sure the best scene of the episode for me.

agreed with this. they should have shifted her to next seasons main villain. giving here the tail half of this season and all of next season to become more intertwined with Skye would have cause major conflict within her, rather than her just turning on her pretty quickly.

and why didnt the teregen gas kill the fish?
