    For those who are not comic book fans Shield is the fictional organization in Marvel comics that deals with super hero threats.

    I'm a big Joss Whedon fan, but this has biiig shoes to fill as its going to be looked at as almost like the Avengers movie- tv show.Do you think its going to be like dollhouse or firefly ( 1 season ) or will it be like Angel, and Buffy were and go on for a while?

    I don't think this is a spoiler as it's in the preview, but is anyone else happy as all get out that Coulson is alive?

    Coulson is awesome but to be honest I already thought he would be, reasoning that he'd of
    used a life model decoy

    Sweeeet. :D There are several advert billboards where I live, and, frankly, they are lame. I see the billboards and I think, "I'll pass." I watch Agent Coulson, though, in that preview clip, and I say, "Sweet! Coulson is back! I'm there!"

    I'll give this show a try when it comes out on Megashare or Netflix.

    I think I saw a trailer for it on one of the UK channels. I should quite enjoy it if I manage to catch it!

    And speaking of Agent Coulson, I recently heard that the Blu Ray versions of the Marvel movies include "shorts" (short films) as part of the extras. I think there are four shorts total. This one came up on my Google search for them. :)

    Got to watch the 1st season tonight. I approve. :happy: Coulson is beyond cool. His brand new little Shield team is quite a mixture of, um, "interesting" people in a way that reminds me of the 80's "GI Joe" cartoon. Each person has a one-of-a-kind personality and is an uber-specialist in something (maker of little robots named after the Seven Dwarves, biogenetics, James Bond espionage, pilot). And, of course, it doesn't hurt that the computer hacker is a total babe. ;) This first episode did a good job of introducing the idea and scope of Shield, the person of Coulson, and the mission that Coulson is going to lead this team on.

    She still looks damn good. Wasn't she in Stargate Universe as well?

    Mushroom De-powered to come back better than before.

    She was Chun Li.....for her sins.

    I personally didn't like the first ep. It was very...i dunno...generic.

    The Joss Whedon style banter is there but he is only the Exec Producer which means that he overlooks the general program but not sure how much influence he has over the show. (In the end studio gets final say and its the Directors and Producers who have general control).

    I'm hoping it will grown on me though.

    I've seen the first 2 episodes and it isn't really grabbing me yet.

    Just looked her up on Google. Wow hard to believe it was her in Street Fighter, can only just see the resemblance in her eyes.

    The third episode is pretty good, it introduces the origin story of one the main super villains in the Marvel Universe, but I found the fourth to be a bit mediocre.
