Being unable to find a solid block of 45 minutes I can spend watching TV in a week is getting old, fast. It's basically impossible for me to avoid spoilers, given my procrastinating-at-work internet habits.
At least tonight I should be able to catch up. Should...

Hope you did, today's was pretty action packed. May's fights are always fun to watch, but they really need to work on Bobbi's choreography, she's a bit wooden when fighting. Also a commercial for Agent Carter, starting in January, and a clip of everyone playing with Mjolnir* that lead into the Age of Ultron trailer. Next week the show is on break in favor of a 75th Anniversary Show of some sort.
Also might want to start on Flash. It's less actiony, but more ... I don't know how to describe it really. Slice of Life is about right. I'm enjoying it, they're keeping Barry's power level pretty low, all things considered. At times maybe a little too low but it's more of a nitpick I'm having here, but it's a minor complaint at best.
* Found a clip. Watch it quick, these things seem to vanish fast.
Thor's reaction to Steve's try is amusing, and I bet that plays into Thor: Ragnarok.

I did absolutely nothing this weekend. I felt horrible after being so lazy (as in, physically weak and gross), but hey!
But instead of catching up on Agents of Shield, I watched Legend of Korra instead, because I was so far behind. So final 2 episodes of season 2, all of season 3, and caught up on season 4.
No regrets! But I do need to get to AoS.

Have watched the entire series over the past few weeks and I must say I'm impressed. They drastically improved the show in almost every aspect compared to its meager beginnings.
So, I'm guessing they're looking for Atillan? It wouldn't really make sense for them to be looking for the Kree homeworld or Wakanda & I can't think of another city with connections to the Kree. Being Thousands of years old would make since for the Blue guy if he was around when they created the Inhumans & Atillan.
So I guess Sky & her Father are Inhumans.

I liked Ward better with his beard. When he shaved I was hoping he'd leave an evil goatee or something like that.
Edit to link this. I did miss the reference in the episode. Maybe (hopefully) it's an early step of establishing Castles presence so he can show up in Daredevil.
According to some fan theories, Castle drove the Penske truck in Cap 2 that helped Fury escape & the same truck that later hit Sitwell when Bucky threw him into traffic. I kind of think Castle could work in SHIELD, but would certainly prefer he show up on Netflix which is unrated. While I don't expect them to go the HBO route with the Marvel Netflix stuff, I think some of it may be closer to R than PG13.
Casting the same guy & having him cameo in both would be better for my inner fanboy, though.

Read that on Reddit and I really dislike it. Both situations would need him to know precisely what would happen in which location at what exact time. To me it seemed like some people grasping at straws because they really want something specific to happen. I prefer the namedrops in the Mandarin One-Shot and now AoS. Even if I missed both and only read up on them afterwards.
I still really don't get the argument that something needs to be R rated. Either way, considering the next wave of Netflix shows and DC's treatment of Constantine I think we can do a pretty decent street level vigilante show featuring Frank, and they could even swing him between the all the mediums. He's never done really well by himself, but paired with another character he's got a pretty good chance. Like one week he's in Daredevil, then the next Agents of SHIELD, and then a cameo in a Captain America movie.

I missed the last two minutes, but overall a pretty slow episode. We're still meant to be pretty clueless to Ward's mental state, though it's all but apparent that he's better with the beard.

If you are interested in the last scene. Skye's father finds the dissected body of the Asian woman. He vows revenge against the person who did it to her, referring to her as "my love". It was late at night and I may have dozed off for a minute or two during a commercial break but I think it was the first time showing the relationship between the two and implying that she was Skye's mother.
But I'm not sure if that was the final scene or if the one talking about Ward's brother's murder-suicide was. Again, late at night and I cannot remember the order there.
I thought it was great when Paul AtreidesSkye's Father said he wanted to look his enemy in the eye, implying he was speaking about his encounter with Coulson's team, but was looking Whitehall right in the eye at the time he said it.. Dunno. It was done with just the right amount of threat without being *too* obvious.
I liked the episode, I'm just not sure how they're going to put off the Inhuman connection until the movie comes out. We shall see.

2 episodes until the mid-season finale, then the Agent Carter mini-series, then more SHIELD. Considering I don't think Inhumans is due out until 2016, that is a long time to search for Attilan.
I'm guessing the temple they'll search in the next episode may be where Attilan was & now its on the moon.

Might be they introduce the Inhumans way earlier than the movie so they can use that concept in Civil War if needed. And the Inhuman movie then gives us the royal family.

That could work. Terrigen mists create Captain Marvel perhaps? If Sky's real name ends up being Carol then I guess we'll know!

I really don't want Skye to be Captain Marvel. Her character has improved drastically since the first episodes but I don't see her (the actress) capable of pulling an entire movie.
I'm not a particular fan of this line of thinking, but are we dismissing the possibility that it's K'un L'un or the Sanctuary of the Ancient One? I mean, I don't like it because it's outside the source material and aren't actually connected, but it would be an in to introduce Iron Fist or Dr. Strange, both of which's appearances are closer than the Inhumans themselves. I realize it's convoluted and likely a bit more complicated than necessary, but it crossed my mind. I'd still only put money on it being Attilan.
Either way, the Magic Healing Avatar Smurf in the tube from last season has been confirmed as Kree to pretty much no one's surprise, and will apparently be revealed on the Dec 2 episode.

Katee Sackhoff is a front runer if not already confirmed to be Carol Danvers, so I highly doubt it. I'm more excited to see Skye's dad snap and in turn snap some necks on screen. Preferably Whitehall's.Also, Ward is back on the board and he's finally interesting! This season has been much more enjoyable now.
