Agents of SHIELD 1.02

[quarter_to_five]

I'm beginning to feel perversely bad for Wade - ie, he of no personality. He obviously has no personality on purpose, and is being set up as the show's foil (in terms of ideology and, well, style) in such a mechanical and boring way, that i'm kind of on his side. He's a soldier-action-dude. He's pretty good at what he does. Now a bunch of chirpily ever-so-cute feisty people with no experience show up and he's expected to bond and be everyone's best friend, and we - the audience - are supposed to resent him when he doesn't take to that like a fish to water?

Honestly, I kind of want him to take on the mentor role with Skye, and all grow as a person and go outside his comfort zone and learn as much from her as she does from him and realize his manly isolation thing is only hurting him and all the usual stuff...and then to have her utterly and totally, irrevocably, betray him. I'd watch that.
