Mad German scientist + late 40's setting makes "he's a former Nazi" a pretty reasonable assumption.

I would have been okay with Jemma-Trip (in a world where FitzSimmons never really became a thing); they did have some pretty good chemistry.

There's easily half a season's worth of trauma for Fitz to get over after this, so I think he'll probably be safe.

I'm pretty sure the blue soap was a reference to the blue Kree growth hormone that was used to keep him alive during the Tahiti project; the fallout from that was what helped him remember the real world in the first place.

When the show first came out, I distinctly remember thinking "ugh, they're going to try to hook the two boring scientists up, aren't they? How droll."

A cool thing about copperheads (and cottonmouths, which are closely related) is that juveniles have a brightly colored tail that they wriggle around like a worm. I believe this is the snake version of ordering room service.

Sounds like the coral snakes have the potential for a profitable partnership.

I think you'd probably be safe with that, since even using an image of Jeff Bridges is probably more money that AoS can afford.

My take on that is that his real world experience is bleeding through enough that it just seems like he's a natural.

Without Coulson, Tony probably wouldn't have survived Stane's attack in Iron Man 1; it's also likely that Thor would have had substantial trouble getting his hammer back.

In the Access Hollywood video ("Grab her by the Pussy") he mentioned that he took a former AH host furniture shopping when he was trying to "move on her like a bitch."

Toss the partially printed one in the recycling bin and start from the beginning. Please don't pay any attention to the screaming, it doesn't have a soul yet.

He does seem the type to hoard his precious bodily fluids.

AoS also had a much more appropriate taken on the "Are Hydra Nazis?" question this season.

The hundreds of clowns who died when the 4 tanks of the 10th Bozo Armored Cavalry Unit were lost deserve a memorial, damnit.

Yeah, going into slomo for Bobbie's final scene wasn't the best idea; it masks just how much force she hit those guys with. Having the bad guys immediately slam into walls when she punched them would have really emphasized how outclassed they were (which would have actually heightened Naomi's narration at the time).

The Space broadcast has the full opening credits and doesn't censor any of the fucks. Definitely the better version.

I'm pretty sure the ring would count as a third major plot device

I really liked book 6; even the glut of POV characters was helpful at illustrating just how widespread the fallout of dropping the rocks was. I'll admit, they certainly could have consolidated a lot of the one-shot characters on Medina station, but other than that, I think it was successful.

He also had combat experience at some point, given that he was in the same unit as Ava's son. I'm guessing he went into SIGINT afterwards?
