Well, facebook is going ballistic after this latest ep. Apparently Jemma is the worst person ever.....I don't get those people, I really don't.

What? That was a great episode, she survived on an alien planet and when she met up with what'shisface they made a plan and executed it. Not their fault it didn't work.

She didn't do anything others wouldn't have done and she did a hell of a lot better than most of the team would have.

[acesn8s]

For most of the episode I was wondering if Will was imaginary. Kinda like Tom Hank's Wilson.

It was more about her

sleeping with him. She's being slut-shamed like crazy (for sleeping with one guy when all hope was lost?) and apparently she'd put Fitz in the friendzone (even though she hasn't). People are calling Fitz weak and sad for wanting to save Will, which is just something a decent person would do and part of his job description.

People are making such a big fuzz, it's ridiculous.

It's sad really, made even more sad because it's ignorant anger directed at a fictitious show. This episode was good, though rather predictable, and who cares if Jemma ends up with this will dude? If it works for a good story then that's the way it's gotta be.

[LinearPhilosopher]

I do not blame her at all. In fact im shocked she stayed committed to fitz as long as she did.

[Coco with marshmallows]

they've been teasing the 'shippers for 2 years. after last seasons cliffhanger, and then the start of this season, it looked like there was FINALLY going to be the resolution they wanted.

And then this curveball.

Of course they're going mental. It's understandable, for all that it's pathetic.

[Whisperzzzzzzz]

Okay, I'm not done with the most recent episode yet, but something struck a huge chord with me.

Spoiler

When Will and Gemma are walking to the portal, Will says that the geologist thought that someone "...consumed this world." And a synonym for consume is devour. And the Devourer of Worlds is Galactus. I don't know where I'm going with this, but I really want to see Galactus.

interesting, however:

Spoiler

I don't think Marvel have the rights to Galactus at present - they're bound up with Fantastic Four with Sony (i think?), which is also one of the reasons why the movies are using Thanos as a main villain.

Similar to Shield using Inhumans as substitures for mutants (persecuted by govt, wide array of powers, some harmless, etc) - Fox has all the mutants.

[Serenity]

Fantastic episode If someone had told me a couple of years ago that this series would be producing episodes of this quality I would've laughed at them. This series has come such a long way

[Binder of Demons]

Yeah, that was a good episode, which should go to show the creators that decent writing and direction will trump the need to default to silly action and dodgy visual effects. The show has improved leaps and bounds as it has gone on.

I wasnt aware that the internet was upset with Jemma. If it's over anything in that episode, then people are stupid.

Welcome to the internet..... :/

[Binder of Demons]

I do consider most internet comment sections (that aren't moderated in some way) to be the cesspool of humanity.


With regards to the show, I am curious as to how the world through the portal fits into the wider Marvel universe. or if it does at all?

[LinearPhilosopher]

well it's a big plot point so im sure it will get expanded upon in later episodes where they inevitably find their way back to the planet, and there they have a nice chat and cup of tea with that thing and realise it was all a big misunderstanding

[QuickTidal]

Goddamn, not only has this show had a pretty solid 3rd season so far....but the most recent ep had a humdinger of a reveal!

Spoiler

Blair Underwood's Andrew character is Lash the blue hedghog?! I did NOT see that coming...like at all. Well played Marvel. Well played.

I thought Lash would be Rosalind. Thought it being Andrew was very cool.

Not really sure what it was exactly. But

Spoiler

but he seemed way too reluctant, way too contrarian and way too opposed about letting inhumans be on the team until after he "knew everything" about them

So I told my self that he was Lash after the first appearance
