I really want to like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D but it's boring and a disappointment. Most of the problems aren't even creative just lack of basic problem solving. What follows is a nit-picky list of “why didn't they just do X?”
In "The Magical Place" Skye is running away from a bad guy through the atomic test town and he gets hit by the team in their truck. Magical timing is so lame it isn't even funny. But wait, they have mini-copters. Why not spend $400 on a WiFi enabled GoPro, put it on a real quad or octo-copter and give us a Fitz drone's POV looking down on the chase to explain the timing. That makes the team so much cooler.
