All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"Shake and Bake" made me laugh.

I see them setting up Civil War with Daisy and Lincoln arguing

Do you think Tony and Cap make up the same way?

A shipper's heart can dream.

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

Maybe thematically, but otherwise Markus and McFeely didn't even know Inhumans were a thing.

This show is fun times. Also I didn't realize the new alien thing is a Marvel character. From Secret Warriors, which makes sense.

Strangely, this negative review makes me even more eager to see it, probably because it helps to calibrate my expectations:

“I have a lot of pain!” “Well I have a lot of pain, too!” “Yeah, well, I think you inflict too much pain on other people!” “Oh yeah, well, I don’t think you inflict enough pain on other people!” “Criminals need to get beaten up!” “No, they need to get killed!” And so on and so forth.

Built for binging! I didn't find a good stopping point until ep 6 (although I took a long pause after 3).

Oh wow, it gets so much better in the second half.

Clancy Brown is a national treasure.

...and then it really fizzles out in the last episode.

I don't love the season as much as the first season. It did some things very well, and other things...less well.
