Kriss & Dpalm are back to continue their rewatch of Agents of SHIELD with the first 11 episodes of Season 2. It’s an understatement to say that business definitely picks up. Looking back at these 11 episodes, we can see the pace that AoS sets that is really just unmatched by any other show. This show also does a great job of establishing that character progression has happened in between the seasons and expects that the audience is capable of keeping up. We see Coulson trying to be director while also trying to hide his urge to carve weird alien writing in the wall, a complete change in Skye (even before her inhuman transformation) into a deadly and very capable SHIELD agent, the split between Fitz and Simmons, a softer side of May AND we get new team members like Hunter, Bobbi and Mack who fit right in.
And then there’s Ward and the fact that you’re led to believe that maybe, just maybe there’s some hope to redeem him and then he just doubles down on being psychopath and it’s glorious. Not many shows are capable of packing this much action, character development and story development into 11 episodes without at least one of those three things suffering. AoS does it and it does it by following the simple concept of “It’s all connected”
Listen as we talk about these first 11 episodes of Season 2 and we’ll be back later this month to wrap up the season.

We’re back to finish up Season 1 of of our Agents of SHIELD rewatch. The first 13 episodes were really good and the pace was great. The back half of the season is even better. It’s fun to go back and see all the threads and seeds that are painted in this first season. You know the season is great when you know the big reveal that’s coming and it still hits you like a ton of bricks. Brett Dalton does such a great job turning heel and you feel the betrayal just like the team does. It’s also a good reminder that this show never hesitated to kill people in horrible ways. Can’t wait to move onto Season 2.

A few months ago we announced that we would be reducing the number of individual shows here at MTR Network and that at the end of this year Super Tuesday Recap would come to an end. Seeing how The Flash was the last of our long recurring shows we covered on Super Tuesday Recap, it made the most sense to bring the podcast to a close. However, before we do that, we wanted to end where we began by going allllll the way back to our beginning and cover the show that started it all: Agents of SHIELD.
It’s been almost a decade since the show debuted and we have to say….it’s still damn good. Lots of folks will tell you that the first season wasn’t good until the big reveal after Winter Soldier but after rewatching the first 13 episodes of season 1, those folks don’t know what they’re talking about. Agents of SHIELD is a prime, rare example of a show that was run by creators who knew what story they wanted to tell, stuck to that script and then had the top cover to be able to take as long as they needed to. The first 13 episodes of season 1 really lay the groundwork for not only the rest of season 1 but the rest of the series. Looking back it’s really masterful storytelling. The pace is actually pretty quick as well which is something to note because in later season the pace picks up even more.
This is going to be a fun and exciting rewatch. Listen as Kriss and Dpalm sing the praises of this great show.

It’s the end of an era as The Flash on CW comes to an end. It’s been a wild ride with some really high highs and some really low lows. And that really sums up this final season as well. The final four episodes though did at least close the loop on themes from the entire show run so that’s definitely some credit there. Are there things we wish that were done better? Absolutely? Did it feel like this season was filled with unnecessary tie-ins for other CW shows (And not the one we wanted *cough* Legends of Tomorrow *cough*)? Yup. But the show at least ends on the themes of family and Barry’s growth with Iris which makes this at least a successful ending. It also makes us wonder what would have happened if not for all the interference from outside. Unfortunately we will never know. Instead we’re left with hoping that the Flash movie turns out good and that the director realizes that Grant Gustin will always be the superior Barry Allen over Ezra Miller.
While this is the end for The Flash and our Arrowverse coverage, it’s not the end yet for Super Tuesday Recap. Before we shut this show down we’re going back to the beginning and are going to do a rewatch/review of Agents of SHIELD from the beginning. We’ll be taking June off then will return in July to cover the first half of Season 1. So stay tuned.

We’re coming up on the end of the Flash series and while this wasn’t a bad episode, we can’t help but look back at the wasted time the other episodes in this shorter season had. With only 3 episodes left, it’s a bit weird to only have Barry in the episode at the very end but we get it. Narratively it works, but as a whole we can see how this final season really suffered from the show not knowing this was going to be not only the final season but a shorter one at that. Hopefully the next 2 episodes do this show the justice it deserves and lands the plane.

Look at that, two great episodes in a row. It’s taken way longer than it should but we are finally getting the final episodes we deserved for The Flash. Taking us all the way back to the beginning and how it all began (while also showing us what might be coming) was perfect. This is what we were looking for.
As Iris receives word of a career milestone, Barry is suddenly nowhere to be found; Barry runs across many familiar faces; Khione continues to figure out her powers; Chester works on a suit for Allegra.

After a bit of a hiatus we’re back with The Flash and it was worth the wait. We finally get an episodes fit for the final season. They gave us Wally, Diggle and most importantly, Stephen Amell back in the suit as Oliver Queen. We didn’t realize how much we missed seeing Amell kick ass as Oliver Queen until we saw this episode again. After some very questionable (let’s be honest, they were bad) episodes, episode 9 felt like an episode that fit in line with what the final season of the Flash should be with Flash fan service. We also get the open acknowledgement of the existence of the new multiverse (not just new timelines) and a proper goodbye between Diggle and Oliver. Hell they even made us feel better about Diggle giving up the power ring to be with his family. This was a good episode and it gave us hope for what’s coming next.
We also talk about the Flash movie trailer and the new Transformers trailer.

We finally get to see Barry using his speed after only being told he was running fast the last two episodes. While not perfect, far from it actually, it does feel like we’re a bit back on track. We’re still very concerned with how they plan on landing this in the remaining episodes. But at least this episode removed the characters (or at least didn’t focus on them) we don’t care about and moved other characters forward from where they’ve been.
We also talk about the Blue Beetle trailer. Is DC finally getting its act together?

Kriss and Dpalm review the latest episode from the last season of The Flash, Wildest Dreams. We’ve officially reached the point where we have no idea what they’re doing. The pace and storyline seem to have no urgency for the last season. And we’re not 2 episodes in a row where Barry not only doesn’t put the suit on but doesn’t even use his speed (on screen). And no offense to Supergirl fans but we don’t care about Dreamer showing up on this show. We really hope they land the plan in the few remaining episodes.
Iris and Nia fall into a fever dream and explore different possibilities for their lives; Barry, Chester, Allegra and Cecile desperately try to help them; Khione feels that Mark is trying to make her something she is not.

Kriss & Dpalm talk about episode 6 of season 9 of the Flash. Let’s just say we weren’t a big fan of this episode before the break.
Barry and Iris prepare for their new life; Cecile takes on a case involving a string of unfortunate and highly unexpected events; Chester and the team work with Khione to figure out her abilities.
