Give me an overarching plot line - like Alias. That show had a terrific building overall plot that was able to fit within the structure of weekly subplots in a great way- until they purposely dumbed it down because viewers thought it was getting to complex.

Truly one of the more disappointing turns for a show that started to hit its stride and could have done great things only to have the network step in and force them to dumb it down.
I guess my issue with it right now is that it seems to lack an edge. It almost feels like an after school special or an episode of Power Rangers.

Maybe they're trying to channel a more retro batman style to start. It's just to nice, it needs to shake people awake a bit.

Plus the whole Coulson is a clone arc isn't going to surprise anyone when they're telegraphing it this badly.(lol I wonder if they'll change his name to 'Cloneson' after the reveal???)

It's just got too much of a retro campy feel to me, it needs it's edge.
