Just finished watching, and it was better than I expected. (I have very low expectations for the show, so I'm rarely disappointed in it.) Had some "Yep, saw that coming about ten miles out" and some "Huh, didn't expect to see *that* coming at all".
My remaining quibble is the use of the phrase "Bob's your uncle" by an American character in an American TV show. That phrase *is* British, isn't it? (Living in the UK as a child makes me easily confused as to which phrases belong to which country.) Hmmm...I suppose Coulson could have heard it from FitzSimmons, though, so I won't scream too loudly about it.
I am also going with the theory that Fitz probably says it a lot, it's the kind of thing Fitz would say, and it's crept into Coulson's phrasebook that way.
