It stars Ming-Na Wen, her show killing ability is almost as good as is Summer Glau's.

A quick look at IMDB shows that 3 of 4 shows on which she was a main cast member were canceled after 2 seasons or less.
I like her fine, but yeah, it doesn't bode well. |

If there is a warren zevon song anywhere near the show, that's the coup de grace. Love the man but three chords from him can cancel a fall lineup.

However super heros are just not made for TV because even the best funded network does not have the time or money for expensive action scenes on a regular basis that is required to effectively translate superhero antics imagined for the pages of comic books to live media. That and what makes me raise an eyebrow is that Whedon is legendary in terms of picking the perfect talent, from what I have seen so far in the trailers of this marvel TV show, it looks like the network did the casting and took all the rejects from other shows to make this garbage. Bring in some Anna Torv and then we can start talking. |

FWIW, Nick Fury and SHIELD had their own comic book before most in this thread were born. While I doubt Jackson/Fury will show up for more than a cameo here and there (if that), Agent Coulson has been one of the more popular supporting characters throughout all of the recent Marvel flicks. IMHO, bringing him "back" to anchor the show was a good move. Doesn't mean the show will be good or do well at all, of course, but the original SHIELD comics were great. |
