Above average, with enough Joss humor to keep it from being another dead-serious fantasy show, a la Grimm.
Can already see possibilities for how the inevitable twists and turns develop.
Also looking forward to finding out the reality of Mr. Coulson's "Trip to Tahiti".

Damn. Missed it. How much air time did Ron get?
Added: Just watched on Hulu. Not bad. But a lot more Ron would have made it a lot better.

I think it'll be up on hulu tonight? We can't get that or Castle so we always have to wait until hulu posts it to watch...

See, I missed the light bulb jokes. Nice to see so many familiar faces though.
And from the previews , it looks like Simon loaned S.H.I.E.L.D. his concussion stick. What's the back story on that device ?

Even though it is Joss, I had dialed my expectations way down. I knew it wouldn't be as awesome as Avengers or Captain America or Iron Man, and that we would only be hearing about those characters while watching the adventures of lesser heroes. It is too soon to tell about the supporting cast, but Clark Gregg is perfect for this project.
Long live Coulson!

I liked it, didn't love it - but I do think there's a lot of potential.
One thing that struck me - there's one staple of successful Joss ensembles that this cast is missing - the asshole. They need a Jane or Cordy or Stark. Its part of what makes his cast dynamic sing, I feel.

I agree, I wasn't Wowed. But there's definite potential. To me this first episode was kind of generic, but I know Joss always starts slow and leaves a trail of breadcrumbs along the way.
I wasn't too thrilled with the tall dark dude, but I like the young hacker girl. And please give Ming Na more to do. Seeing Ron was great, hope we get to see some more FF vets like Badger and Monty, maybe even Saffron.
SGG
