Chances are {Spoiler}Quake is probably gonna be this show’s “Mephisto” in that people expect and anticipate her showing up… but she doesn’t.

I just thought it was stupid as hell the rumors suggested she would just cameo in Episode 3 and Fury would put her on a super team in episode 6. If she appears it won’t be until the second half when Fury and Talos are backed into a corner against Super Skrulls and needs.

I'll be honest, I wouldn't know Quake if I saw her.

I think a gigantic problem with this show is as someone who's kind of just a casual at best fan of the MCU I can't really tell you anything about anyone in this except Nick Fury and I'd only describe his character as, "Generic leader guy."

I enjoyed the Pulp Fiction remake they had in the car.

So one of two things about that shocker… {Spoiler}…either Gi’ah gave herself the Super Skrull treatment before that happened and the Extremis will help her evade death or all of the future scenes are her as her human form…looking at you Abigail Brand.

Think she is a super skrull as there is a shot from one of the trailers where she discovers all the human shells the Skrulls are using and guessing this is where she learns her shell is Abigail , and also confirming she is not infact dead.

Some of the spy action in yesterday's episode was laughably bad. No drama, no tension, no suspense, no intrigue. Just blah. Bless Ben Mendelsohn for trying his hardest. He's carrying this show right now, and the writing and the plotting are failing his efforts.

yeah, I'm a big Marvel mark, but this is just meh right now. The ending of the show was surprising, but it didn't hit as hard as it probably should've. It's fine... but that's it... just fine.

Me yesterday: “Shit, gotta watch the new Secret Invasion!”
Me 5 minutes in to the episode: “You dumbass, you watched this last night”
That pretty much summarises how I feel so far. I really, really want to like this show but it’s so incredibly “meh” so far. We’ll see how things shake out by the end, Marvel shows tend to be best evaluated as a whole not episode by episode but it’s not winning me over thus far.

Prior to this series, unless I had something to do that took me out of the house, I was watching these shows the evening the release after work. I don't think I've watched any of the 3 episodes on Wednesday. It's been Thursday or Friday. It's not a bad show for me... it just hasn't felt "must see" as I thought it would be.

Maybe this show should have been kept a secret.
Also with the trailer out for the Marvels and fury is on his little space base does this show take place before or after that?

The Marvels was supposed to release before Secret Invasion. Supposedly they had to adjust the ending of the series to adjust for that.

Granted it's only a few episodes in, but I think this is the worst Marvel show since Inhumans. Going to stop watching unless I see a lot of people whose opinions I generally trust say it gets better.

If people wanted a good Secret Invasion adaptation, they could just watch the Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes version of it from the show's second season.

And if folks want some great spycraft stories, even though they don't feature Skrulls, the first four seasons of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., the best live-action MCU show, have exactly what one is looking for.

What gets me is they already said Rhodey won’t be suiting up. So the shit is this…we have an army of Super Skrulls possibly and a Skrull who fully knows how to access and use the War Machine armor but he won’t?

What honestly annoys me right now about SI is that there’s a really funny Jackson/Mendelsohn crime busting show with Olivia Colman as the antagonist that we didn’t get because Feige really wanted to do a political espionage show and it makes me sad.
