What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Jed and/or Maurissa may have written for Spartacus, but they didn't showrun it. (If that's what P-C was saying; I was a little unclear.)

It was and it wasn't! I wasn't sure whether they showran it or not, but it would have made my point better if they had.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I believe DeKnight was the showrunner for the whole series.

Now THAT'S the Coulson I like. (evil smile) "I know."

All he needed was his taser.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Finally got around to watching last week's episode. I liked it quite a bit. Not sure how I feel about Skye joining SHIELD for a "true and noble purpose" but at least we understand now why she was so willing to sign on and get with the program.

Not sure why they felt the need to blow Chan up instead of just shooting him. I mean, even if Coulson only brought the knock-out gun and May doesn't carry a gun for inexplicable reasons, they seemed to have beat up plenty of armed guards.

I did like Coulson's "They gave him a name." and immediately reaching for his gun.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh, I totally forgot that we didn't watch last week's episode b/c we were out. I wonder if that will be a problem for watching tomorrow's episode. So, I gather from what Kalshane posted that Skye officially joined SHIELD? Anything else significant happen?

Phil got his badass on with a hacker who was all "It's different when *I* sell information for money, I'm still as noble as I ever was." Definitely a "I'll taser you and watch Supernanny as you drool" moment.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Steph, it's up on Hulu if you have time first.

This past episode spawned a faint hope in me that Skye being annoying was not the actress acting badly, but the character. I know. But maybe?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It's a re-run of the pilot episode tomorrow, btw.

Makes sense. First arc, What is Skye up to?, is done, time for a recap of sorts. Then proably on to, Can she redeem herself/Further suspicions of Coulson/Who are those baddies?

Didn't Chan incinerate all the bullets they shot at him?

I thought his motivation was tissue thin. All that talk about being meant for bigger things and meanies suppressing the use of his gift, but he never seemed to spare a single thought for anything useful he might be able to do with it. Apparently the masses were supposed to just fall down in worship because he could light his hands up as if he were a Bic. At least in the pilot Mike seemed to have some inclination to actually use his powers to save people from danger.
