Season Two Review
I enjoyed rewatching the first season of "Agents of Shield" more than I thought I might. The "Whedon" style worked more for me than I thought it might and the integration with the big Marvel Movies of that year was well done. The drift away though is underway now, as the Hydra twist and the fall of SHIELD effectively resets the show for this second season.
Though now operating with no budget and stolen resources, new Director of SHIELD Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) tries to battle the remaining forces of HYDRA, whilst not getting caught by General Talbot (Adrian Pasdar) who is bringing the army's might around in him. Daniel Whitehall (Reed Diamond) leads the Hydra forces, and seeks an obelisk of Alien origin and is using Raina (Ruth Negga) to get it, she has another, superior, leader though.
The first half of this season is spent dealing with the fallout of the HYDRA situation, which leads to the arrival of the Inhuman's in the MCU (Though not the Inhuman's series, that is still a little way away). This gives us the resolution of Daisy's parentage, including a fun performance from the always welcome Kyle MacLachlan. This season introduces Nick Blood and Adrianne Palicki as Lance Hunter and Bobbi Morse, whose chemistry was such that they hoped to spin them off into their own Marvel series, but it didn't progress beyond the pilot stage. The series also finds ways to keep Grant Ward involved in the story.
It's tie into "Age of Ultron" is a little stranger outside of the context of the film. It does explain where the Helicarriers came from in that film, but there's little return context here, or payoff to Raina's visions of "Metal men". In fact, Ruth Negga is perhaps the most illtreated by this season, robbed of intrigue, caked in prosthetics and then killed off.
It's another fun season of the show and I'm still enjoying it, perhaps more than I thought that I would. We'll see long it lasts into season three.
