Watching it at the moment, the music isn't bad thus far but _very_ incidental with tiny little flourishes to underscore some statement. Also sounded like Raya singing the opera style track near the beginning. I liked the touching music at the resolution of the standoff and he gets shot in the head
Gags hit the mark for me, even ones like "I'm not Hermione". Fitz & Simmons are enjoyable, though I struggled to understand them a couple of times (this despite me being British). Can't imagine how American's are coping with the accents.
I want me a Lola!

Someone told me this is going up against the season premier of NCIS (I don't watch the show). It will surely be crushed.
"Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. . . . delivered 11.9 million viewers and a 4.6 adults 18-49 rating. That makes S.H.I.E.L.D. TV’s highest-rated drama debut in nearly four years (since ABC’s V premiere in November, 2009).
"S.H.I.E.L.D. . . . ran against huge competition: NBC’s The Voice and CBS’ NCIS are two of the most popular shows on television. And how did it stand up? S.H.I.E.L.D. actually managed to tie the two-hour The Voice overall in the demo (4.6) — and beat it head-to-head during the 8 p.m. hour — while trouncing the return of NCIS in the demo (3.4), though obviously losing among total viewers (19.4 million)."
I wonder what kind of drop-off we'll see next week and over the season.
I must say I was very impressed with the numbers. Though the fact that V was the last time a drama reached those numbers doesn't particularly warm my heart (since V got cancelled at the end of its second season...) I have high hopes for this one though.

I’m not sure why people aren’t liking this show. It’s not Firefly, but neither were Angel or Buffy three episodes in. I like most of the cast (I’m not crazy about Skye or Ward, but I like everyone else), I like the writing, I like the Marvel setting, and it’s a genre show I can watch with my kids!
Music-wise last night was the first time I noticed it outside of an action scene. It’s good, it just doesn’t take front stage so far.

I don't love the show yet, but I don't dislike it, either. My biggest problem right now is not that the team is not much of a team yet, although I'll be much happier when they are, but that they're so boring. It's taken them three episodes to get May to admit what we knew from the moment we met her. Ward is just boring as all get-out and needs some layers, stat. Skye's arc: also pretty boring. She's part of the regular cast and, aside from Coulson, the star of the show. We know she's not going to betray the team or, if she does, that it'll be resolved. And FitzSimmons really, really need a chance to shine sooner rather than later. We're three episodes in and there's just nothing fresh about any of the characters or the character arcs, and nothing exciting about the team dynamics. And since that's where Whedon tends to shine, I really hope we get there very very soon.
