Some minor spoilers within.

So we're two weeks in now, and I'm curious as too everyone's thoughts on the show. I do like the show, and am rooting for it to continue, but I feel like it's a bit too closed off to the average viewer (as in, anyone who hasn't watched the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe series so far), which could hamper its ratings and appeal in the long run. And also, Skye is...kinda annoying.

I'm still curious as to what the Rising Tide group is supposed to be and how they will play into the overall story of the series, and while I'm sure that the scene in episode two with Skye and the text message is supposed to be suspenseful, I'm just waiting for the inevitable episode later in the first season when Shield and the Rising Tide come to a head and Skye chooses the Tide first before confirming her change of heart and sticking with Shield.

I also like that not every episode is not about a new powered being. Having an over abundance of super heroes may work for comics, but introducing 20-24 new powered beings to the film universe in one season would be a bit overkill.

Finally, I like that the movie casts are making cameos to tie the series to the films. Cobie Smulders and Samuel L. Jackson have both appeared and Agent Hill and Nick Fury, but I'm curious if we'll ever see one of the main six Avengers in the series in any capacity.
