River ,'The Message'
TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.
Yeah, that speech perfectly encapsulated what's going on with Coulson and Gregg nailed it. May's reaction was perfect as well.
I hope Fitz gets more to do than be jealous of Trip.
While some character-building was necessary to get here, I wish it didn't drag on so much beforehand. The show might have been better-served by starting as a mid-season program and had a condensed build-up to the HYDRA reveal.

Yeah, the logic in forcing the show to just tread water for 15 episodes seems kind of shaky to me.
Well, we got a sense of SHIELD workings and had Ward settle well into clueless dork mode. So the shock of the change was bigger. I've enjoyed it, anyway.
Well, it's not Game of Thrones, and security guards during an invasion are different from a character who's been the driving character of the series and in several movies
I think it being on network TV is why it's not Game of Thrones, not the whole Disney thing. Besides, they killed Bambi's mother, didn't they?
Dude, SPOILER FONT.
I kid, I kid.
(I didn't see Bambi until I was 20 or so, and I had no idea they killed Bambi's mother. I was possibly more traumatized than the little kids in the theater.)
Skye is kinda a Disney Heroine, at that. And HYDRA probably killed her parents....
She allegedly has some sort of interesting attributes. I suppose Garrett will want to grab her for experimentation in the future.

I just don't trust the show to not rehabilitate Ward, or at least do so in an interesting way.
There was a line where somebody asked him something to the effect of doesn't he feel like he owes Coulson - and he said yes, but that he owed Garrett more. I thought that was interesting - that his loyalty may be split, just Garrett has tha larger portion - and that might be what turns him around. (And not Skye's Magic Doe-Eyes, please and thank you).
I suppose Garrett will want to grab her for experimentation in the future.
I was unclear on why he wanted her killed, since she's an 084 (which I'm starting to think is SHIELD's code for "Mary Sue") and therefore totally desirable to experiment on, but Tim reminded me that only Coulson knows Skye is an 084.
Ah, it's going to be a Sudden Revelation of Powers thing.
Edit: great, it's going to turn out she's the real Clairvoyant.
