Well the pilot has been met with a lot of negative opinions. I personally liked it. Wasn't the most amazing thing on telly, but it was enjoyable. Plus it's only the first episode and it piqued my interest. Many questions need to be answered over the series, the biggest of which is what really happened with Coulson?
I think there will be great character development. I mean Coulson was a bit part in Iron Man and now he has enough fans to warrant a TV show centering around him. I immediately disliked the hacker girl. She had amusing one liners but she was pushy and egotistical, she not only thought she was smarter than everyone, she thought she was a better human being. A conspiracy theorist with a Messiah complex. This tones down and I think Coulson seeing potential in her makes her more tolerable. I can maybe see myself even liking her eventually. I'm reserving judgement on the others. I was a little thrown by the science couple. Random choice of accents but then hey look at Stargate Atlantis!
A lot of people have had issues with the plot, I won't go into detail so as not to spoil it. This may be a case of expecting too much, it may be a case of knowing the background too well. Like when a film is spoilt because you know the book inside out. But hey I liked it! Maybe I'm just more easily pleased?
Overall I'd say it's an enjoyable way to spend an hour, just don't expect something the level of Avengers. I look forward to seeing how it turns out. I expect better things!
