It really feels like the show is starting to find its feet, after the last few episodes. I'm starting to wonder how much of its weak start was them holding off on things until Cap 2 was released, because they had to have had this planned out since the beginning.
I've really enjoyed the show all season but this ep just blew me away. Twist after twist after twist! I haven't seen the movie yet but I'm not made at being spoiled because it was just so damn good.
I've said all along that Joss shows take time to build; I wish more of my friends hadn't given up on it because it is so good right now!
I've enjoyed it for the most part, but there have definitely been some things in earlier episodes that have felt a bit weak. The last few episodes, though? It's really feeling like the show might be finding its stride.
I am excite. And confused as hell. I still don't trust Hannah. But she dead so I guess not an issue now. I was upset at Bill Paxton being a baddie, but OMG Coulson's face when the lightbulb went off for him.

On the one hand, I'm actually really thrilled that there is continuity like that. One of the things that I really disliked about DW/TW/SJA is that their plots were so distinct despite them being in the same universe, because if something major happened on one of them then it should have some affect on the others.
On the other hand, they could have at least waited a couple of weeks before airing the episode. Or at the very least made it more obvious that there were going to be major spoilers for the movie in it. I saw Cap 2 before watching it, but just barely, and the trailers and such they showed really didn't make it clear just how spoilery the episode was going to be (especially since the Thor 2 tie-in was barely spoilery at all).
