Comicopolis Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I enjoy the show, it's different than other stuff out there and it is improving week by week. I should probably try it again. I really want to like it and I do like Clark Gregg but what has turned me off the most is that wannabe hacker woman (don't know actress or character name) who was just too much of an insufficiently_thoughtful_person for being any kind of government agent. She breaks the suspension of disbelief that normally makes a show like this so fun. She reminds me of when I was supposed to believe Denise Richards could be a Nuclear Scientist in that Bond movie...just not even possible for a second. C'mon though - it was Denise Richards.

Miscellaneous Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I'm finally caught up on the show. It's been disappointing for the last few episodes as there's slow developments. They kept on hinting about Tahiti but there's no new development on this. At least other characters are getting their own storylines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdoginohio Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Ward = Jayne May =Zoe Wonder Twins = Dr. Tam & Kaylee Skye = Enora or River ? Colson = Mal ? Shepherd ? Am I reading too much into it? I mean, how many shows has Seth Mcfarlane put out with the same formula? Also, can someone give the Whedon brothers Steven Moffat's number?

Oh I'm a fan of hers but for me that Bond film was as distracting as watching It's a Wonderful Life with Sling Blade in the Jimmy Stewart role. I mean make her a spy or an athlete or almost anything other than a nuclear scientist... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slym2none Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 OK, I got caught up on this over the weekend, I had missed the past two episodes. Not one comment on Mae kicking with the Asgardian staff? Nothing about Mae & Ward workng off some staff-induced anger issues on each other in the bedroom? Nothing about how the last episode, while good in backstory, had a main story that has been done to death?? BTW - I am slowly falling in TV love with Elizabeth Henstridge. She looks better than Chloe Bennett any day. I also still think Ming-Na is hot. -slym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditch Fahrenheit Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Why do so many people hate Denise Richards (who's obviously smokin' hot)? Is it the Richie Sambora thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slym2none Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Watch that stupid reality show she starred in, for one episode. I know, and I know, and I know... but in the same way you think the Kardashians are petty , you will think the same about Denise Richards. -slym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slym2none Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 The only sense I can make out of that, is he thinks Asians don't find Ming-Na attractive. Which is a broad stroke to paint, as beauty is quite subjective. -slym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ming Na Wen just happens to be on a list of Asian women in American media that most Asian guys (that I know) are like "really? her?" when someone says she's hot. Obviously everyone likes different stuff, just a weird theory that seems to hold true with people we know. That being said, I think she's a pretty good actress and solid on the show. *** a new edition to the aforementioned list would be the non-love interest sidekick girl from the Wolverine movie.
