    Memorable character for sure in Iron Man. Worth a shot. but TV has very rarely met the quality of the big screen when it comes to special effects, which a superhero series will need to rely on. Doesn't seem that sustainable to me, but I hope for the best and I'll probably check it out.

    I think it will be an updated version of the Buffy/ Angel series but without any vampires, of course.

    I would be over the moon if that ends up being true. Still my favorite Whedon series/universe. Sorry, Firefly.

    I certainly give it a look. It's Joss Whedon's show and that man knows good TV.

    Pretty much what I expected. Generic, badly acted, cheesey and cheap (when you have to inevitably compare to the movie). Only saving grace is Agent Coulson. I'll give it a chance to find its footing but I'm skeptical.

    Disappointed but I'll probably watch next week.

    The premiere of the decade was Blacklist yesterday.

    I probably DVR it regularly and watch it when i have a chance.

    Not blown away, but I'll give it a chance to play out.

    Pretty darn bad. To what extent is Joss involved with this show? Does he actually have a hand in its day to day operations?

    What did people not like about it? Did you all want more recognizable superheros?

    I don't see how it differed from the first episode of Buffy or Angel
