I don’t know, it’s not like Jed and Mo haven’t had success away from Mutant Enemy, and Jeffrey Bell is a talented cat as well. I really thing S.H.I.E.L.D. just suffers from too many cooks in the kitchen syndrome. Hopefully it will work itself out.
]]>I’ve been arguing with my friend, a die-hard Whedon fan, over where SHIELD is going. I see it going nowhere fast. Like you, I appreciate a good accent, and believe the other half of the FitzSimmons team, Iain De Caestecker, is horribly underused on SHIELD. Anyone who caught The Fades saw what he is capable of, and being comic accent fodder is a shame.
Sadly, I think Captain America will hurt SHIELD more than help it. Holy hell night – Robert Redford is at the helm in the movie? That makes the TV show seem so small by comparison, especially with the pathetic character development we’ve witnessed so far.
I think letting his bro take the reins wasn’t Joss’s best move to date. The ratings go lower every week and the series is bleeding viewers, but I have no doubt the movies will be blockbusters. It’s all very sad.
PS – Sara Lance doesn’t have an H. Who knew? I didn’t for the longest time!
