Thoughts on some series I've been watching recently.
Agent Carter, season 2
Was it just me, or did it feel like the writers were just as surprised as everyone else that they actually got a season 2? ( Spoilers whole season )
Agents of SHIELD, 3.11
That was... actually pretty good? ( Spoilers )
The 100
I'm done, I'm out, I'm gone. ( Spoilers 3.07 )
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, season 11
No show should ever run for 11 seasons. That said, the Gang still manage to wring humour from utterly despicable characters for another round. They've got their character dynamics down so well they can plop them into any plot - this season, including an 80s college comedy and a courtroom drama - and just let them wreak havoc on each other. The shtick is old and we know what's coming, but in a world where Full House gets rebooted, I'm glad IASIP exists to remind us that sitcoms were always just 22-minute slices of sociopathy.
Plus, y'know, if you're going to satirize Trump, do it right.
Oh well. Bring on Game of Thrones and Daredevil. (Has anyone written a Weredevil AU? I'd be disappointed with fandom otherwise.)
