Excuse me if I have grammar or spelling mistakes, I don’t live in an English-speaking country.
Two days ago I watched the new Agents of Shield episode, (I don’t live in America so I have to watch the episodes after you, or most of you), and I saw of a couple of things I think are worth mentioning so let’s get to it:
Why was Skye there? What was she doing inside that train? If nothing would have happened after, she would have been completely useless (and she was still useless after). A month ago, I made an article ranting about this show and I kept saying that it really annoys me that “agents” like Skye or Simmons keep on going to the battlefield or the scene of the action. But they always give us the same excuse: To make this plan work, they have to be there. So if they are so good, why do they have to keep on going? Supposedly, Skye is so extremely good with computers that they recruited her without knowing her or without any kind of training or academies. If she is SOOO good, why does she have to be there? Do you know where the computer guys should be? Here.
Although someone is going to say that Coulson wants to keep an eye on her because she is an 0-8-4, blah, blah... You know what I mean. Anyways, like I was saying, why did Skye have to be there? It just itches me a lot. If nothing would have happened she wouldn’t have had to do anything. She would have only interfered or slowed them down. So after, she pretends to be a spy and goes inside Ian’s house. These are the kinds of things that just makes me feel like I am watching another thing that isn’t shield. That’s Reason 1. Instead of her, bring another field agent and that’s it. She is just a computer girl, I wouldn’t even call her an agent.
Then, another thing that annoyed me was Simmons. First, let’s just ignore the fact that she shouldn't have been on that train, because after thinking about it, I can still accept it, maybe she had to be there this time, I can see that, i can understand that. But then after that scene were she pretends to be Coulson’s daughter I can’t stop thinking negatively. I could see a realistic scene of a film were a scientist called Gemma Simmons goes undercover with a CIA agent called Phil Coulson with made up background and a plan for the mission and I would completely accept it. But then we see a bunch of random guys with no plan or made up back stories that get on a train to do a mission. You see Gemma making a drama inside the train pretending to be Coulson’s daughter screaming and yelling at him when he didn’t know anything. It looks taken out of a cartoon TV show. They are Shield agents! They are professional! What the hell is this thing Joss? Seriously! They were supposed to have a plan with everyone knowing it. Like: “Hey, you are going to be this person, here you have your fake ID and your back story, next!” And also, Skye didn’t know that Fitz had gadgets to open the door of the train. That was Reason 2.
So after those two reasons, you just completely forget what you are watching. This is not funny, this is not childish, this is SERIOUS. This. Is freaking...
I don’t take this show as a normal one, as a regular one, it’s childish. I can’t imagine for example a married couple sitting on the couch watching this. Even if sometimes guns appear and Skye got shot. People also die in Disney films. That is not a justification, it must feel realistic.
I am enjoying the plot of the TV show and that’s why i keep watching it. I think the plot has improved the series but some things must really change. Thanks for reading. I am BaronZemo.
