New Description via the Press Site
Joss Whedon (MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) shows us not all heroes are super with MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.
Fresh from his role in the summer’s box office smash, MARVEL’S THE AVENGERS, Agent Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) returns to the worldwide law enforcement organization S.H.I.E.L.D. He puts together a small, highly trained, team of Agents to tackle the cases that haven’t been classified yet, the new, the strange and the unknown. That team consists of straight arrow Agent Grant Ward (Brett Dalton), an expert in combat and espionage; pilot and martial artist Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen); and brilliant if socially awkward scientists Agent Leo Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) and Agent Jemma Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge). They’ll be joined by civilian new recruit and computer hacker Skye (Chloe Bennet).
Prepare for an epic adventure that showcases the hope and wonder of the human spirit. This is a world of Super Heroes, aliens and the unusual – of action, spectacle and world spanning stories. The show will speak to the human condition through the lens of our very human, non-powered S.H.I.E.L.D agents – that together we are greater than we are apart, and that we can make a difference in the world.
Executive Produced and co-written by Joss Whedon, Jed Whedon & Maurissa Tancharoen (Dollhouse, Dr.Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog), Jeffrey Bell (Angel, Alias) and Jeph Loeb (Smallville, Lost, Heroes) comes Marvel’s first live-action TV series, MARVEL’S AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.

yes its been
ReplyDeleteYeeeeeah
ReplyDeleteI'm not so sure about this, to be honest. Especially the "civilian new recruit" that's about 20 y-0 or the fact that all the characters are made up and none are from canon. As much as I love Son of Coul, I'm gonna probably wait to hear what people are saying about this first, before I watch.
ReplyDeleteI prefer the previous name.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, the previous title is more ominous and more powerful.
ReplyDeleteI prefer Shield to be honest. What is with ABC and the long titles anyway?
ReplyDeleteIt's probably because there is already a show called The Shield, plus this also makes it very clear its a Marvel show (in case some people didn't know)
ReplyDeleteSo excited!! I'm on board with any and all things Joss Whedon.
ReplyDeleteAs a reader i would prefer to get the real source, not just post ABC.com. Anyway this is the real source:

I think you're right. They need to make it clear what the show is about through the title to the TV audience. They named Avengers as "Marvel's The Avengers" so they probably want to do that here as well. But "Marvel's S.H.I.E.L.D" would have sufficed I think.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know how many episodes will there be in the first season?
ReplyDelete@arun279:disqus It's not been picked up. It's still just a pilot.
ReplyDeleteThe timeslot ABC gives this will be crucial.
ReplyDeleteI think this represents the show better, as to avoid confusion with ''The Shield''. Great show by the way. ;)
ReplyDeleteAny specific reason you want the "real" source?
ReplyDeleteYou should not trust blindly on what fan-community`s says. There was a lot of fake press releases especially with Lost.
ReplyDeleteI just came to know about this show and was extremely happy about it. But the very next moment, I saw it's on ABC. I started having my doubts. Do we have to worry about ratings just like we did on Fringe? Or worse this is gonna get cancelled just like Firefly after a few episodes?
ReplyDeleteNetwork TV is the worst place to launch a show like this, IMO.
Who really cares... the show will have a short single season at best.
ReplyDeleteThey do know we are just gonna call it SHIELD, right?
ReplyDeleteWe makes sure to post our material from authentic sites.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to this, though they better explain Phil's "resurrection" in a satisfying way.... I for one want him to have actually died in the Avengers (otherwise it cheapens the sacrifice) and he's back as an android, like Vision....
ReplyDeleteI'll third this....
ReplyDeleteAgreed!
ReplyDeleteMarvell's shield would have sufficed
