Poll of the Day > So I've been catching up on Agents of SHIELD and something's bothering me...

(+) Yeah! (+)

about it. Daisy has these amazing powers of vibration but her powers are way too under utilized. She can vibrate apart multiple guns at once, but she can't vibrate a bolt loose? They've already established that she can use vibrations to mess with frequencies, yet she can't do anything right now when the enemy utilizes frequency? I can understand that Daisy might forget about these things, but Fitz and Simmons shouldn't ever forget about it.

How far along are you? It did take some time for Daisy to develop and master her powers.

Yeah her character and powers rarely matter in the show

i still think its funny that they end one of the seasons by showing that she can fly and then they just ignore that going forward

Just finished the most current episode. She still hasn't mastered her powers.

Well, she can't fly, she uses her powers to power herself into the sky and then uses them to cushion her landing. But if she ever actually worked on her powers, I think she would be able to fly. Ride them vibrations yo.

Propulsion? Super jump? Launch? Kinda like early Thor, he didn't technically fly, but his hammer moved him forward.

Wasn't it more of a they tried to make a spin off show and when it bombed they backed off using the powers as much type of deal?

I guess that could be it, but I don't think so. I think they just unintentionally made her OP.

I'm actually still upset that Afterlife was so short lived. I felt that was were she would have learned more about how to use her powers but noooooo.

I think they tamed her to make the show more "Agents of Shield" and not a show focusing on her.

Personally I really really wish the show was more what they promoted. The whole "Artifact or person of interest a week" It would have been way better. I mean Marvel has thousands of do-hikeys that could keep the show going for ages. Could have had an entire season of the Hand trying to get a mysterious artifact, or played Ghostrider more with someone trying to use a hellish idol for something. The possibilities are endless. But instead... we got what we did which was a whole bunch of "Meh"

Her weakness is bad writing.

Hopefully they know that putting a powered person in a show like that makes the show about them. I know when I heard about the show I thought it was going to only ever be non-powered people in it.

We are talking about a show that the public VERY openly stats that one of the best parts was GhostRider. And they never did anything more with him sooo.....

I found Agents of Shield to be a real mixed bag. Some clever ideas. Plenty of bad plots/characters. But mostly? Just a whole bunch of mediocrity.

The early seasons practically revolved around Skye/Daisy. To a sickening degree. She was basically becoming a mary-use until they finally put her back in check.

AoS doesn't hold a candle to the best Marvel live action shows like Daredevil, Punisher or Jessica Jones. I'd have a hard time recommending it to anyone, honestly. Mostly feels like a waste of time.
