What I do for love...
I am not a sitcom watcher, never have been. Big Bang Theory, yes. Pretty much everything else, no. But, because Clark Gregg is a lead on The New Adventures of Old Christine and because TNAOC is on about four times a day, I've been watching. For him! Okay, and a bit for Wanda Sykes and Hamish Linklater.
After a dozen or so episodes, I'd like to make two observations.
One: While I find his character a tad annoying (sometimes more than a tad) I really hope that Agents of SHIELD makes use of Gregg's comic timing. I can't imagine it won't because actors trained in comedy often give the best dramatic performances, but I'd really hate to lose the 100% throw himself into the part sort of performance that Gregg gave in, say, the sunburned balls episode. Seriously. The sunburned balls episode. Granted, that was the B plot but they went all in.
Two: I am really not a sitcom watcher.
