[QUOTE="Derren, post: 6223869, member: 2518"] Sadly this series is not what I expected. Except for maybe 2 episodes you hardly notice that it is Marvel. Just compare it for example with Arrow which is choke full of references. But here? A Fury cameo and 2 one shot- movie references, that was it. But neither the protagonists nor the antagonists are tied to the marvel verse. I am also missing a continuous story which ties the episodes together. Yes, you have Coulson and the question about his ressurrection, but they drag that out too much. By now everyone understood that something fishy is going on, but they still only hint at that issue if it comes up at all. And the rest? Rising Tide appeared for a few episodes and vanished again, the Asgardians likely will to, etc. In Arrow you had the list which was present in nearly every episode. Imo the show also focuses a bit too much on the team and its members. That is actually a good thing but I find most of them pretty boring. So I am not exactly thrilled about hearing more about their feelings and histories. I think some of the problems this series has is that it can only use a very limited amount of Marvel lore either because of rights issues with Fox and because of the entire setup where the Avengers are the only superpowered people on earth and can never meet Coulson so won't appear at all.
