I totally got the Simmons/, Trip was his charismatic self and she was a little twitterpated around him. Although maybe they were just doing that to highlight how it made Fitz jealous.
Put me on the "pissed (if) Trip is dead" bench. As soon as he ducked into the circle, I knew it was bad. I was waiting for someone to die, because 1) Joss 2) mid-season finale and 3) written by Jeff Bell (see #1). It almost seemed like they had us going with Mac being possessed, and then were like, "just kidding, we're going to kill the OTHER black guy. hahaha fooled ya."
It's possible I'm projecting.
I went back and watched the first two episodes with a friend on Thanksgiving, and holy CRAP I'd forgotten how annoying Skye was. And May is a chatterbox now compared to then. I do appreciate the character development for both Skye and Ward, for sure.
So Cal was humming "Bicycle Built for Two?" I had a hard time figuring that out.
Bobbi better not be evil, dammit. Just because I say so.
I don't mind if Bobbi has done evil stuff, though. I like to think of SHIELD as the School of Hard Calls.
I guess I was looking at Simmons/Tripp from Tripp's POV. Especially considering how twitterpated
I'd
be around him.
Who knows--maybe the actor got a gig so he can't film now/again. It's really not only writer decisions here, although folks always blame them first. Maybe he just hated it and quit--we will never know if he doesn't come back.
Yeah, people were pissed that Harrison got killed off on Scandal, but it turns out that the actor was an addict and was a mess onset, so they had to fire him.
I know all that's true and it is stupid to think everyone you like is going to survive a Joss show. And he was underused this season. I'm sure I will get over it.
Yeah. I can understand why his death served the story and still mourn that his character didn't get more development and time to be awesome.
I just watched the episode again. That's the first time I've rewatched an AoS episode immediately, and it held up. I kind of want to watch it again. I'm kind of digging the possibility of Ward and Not!May going off to have wacky hijinks together. Kind of agents of chaos... instead of Hydra or SHIELD. And I want to see what happens to Skye. Congrats, writers, I finally don't hate Skye and Ward.
eta good lord I said "kind of" a lot in that post. Kind of embarassing.

Yeah. I can understand why his death served the story and still mourn that his character didn't get more development and time to be awesome.
Is there a term for a minority character that gets fridged? Or is it still fridged?
So far, he's only been killed. Who's the target of his fridging, and how have they responded so far?
