Yup - M:AoS really upped their game for S2, it went from being 'passable' for the 1st half of S1 to being OK for the second half of S1 to being rather quite good for 1st half S2 to being must watch!

I think that is an accurate trajectory description. (I actually stopped watching in S1 and am not sure of where/how I got back in, movie tie-in probably)
A show with 22 episodes...I hope they can maintain that heading.

So who else is stuck with watching the UK schedule of Agents of SHIELD?

[Lurking Lawyer]

Me! Can't be arsed with the faff of torrenting any more, and there's always a host of other stuff piled up on the Sky box to keep me occupied, so I've settled for just waiting for it to pop up on C4.

[Easternlight]

Why the rush to see it a few weeks earlier? You'll see it eventually.
Maybe I'm just patient

I'll be waiting for the UK screenings, I can't be arsed downloading it because I have plenty of other stuff to watch in the meantime.

However, this thread popping up did prompt me to google to find out when it's back, 10th January it seems.

can't honestly say it's a faff - d/l overnight then watch the next day. Job jobbed

I admit, if I had the ability, I'd dl the st out of it...but alas, I do not, so I cannot.

UK stty C4 scheduling for me then.
C4 are twunts, if they can one +1 day for Fargo, then they can sort this.

It's apparently a lot more expensive to buy the rights if they want it the next day. At least that was why C5 didn't do it for Gotham, assuming this is the same

And then they wonder why torrents appear.

it's much the same with a lot of TV progs

[Halb]

I guess it's prerogatives...but that makes me wonder...both TBBT and SHIELD are now hugely popular...so why not splash the cash? Spending too much on dating and pieky programmes?

[poing]

Saw an advert saying it's back 10th Jan so that confirms it for me. Stupid Sky box wouldn't let me set the record that far ahead!

[Lurking Lawyer]

Looks like Channel 4 has all but given up on AoS - series 3 starts in the UK at 02.10 on Monday 11th January on E4. And then they'll wonder why no-one watches it....

There's no way I'd have spotted that if I hadn't had it set up as a Sky Never Miss reminder!

[Halb]

Wow, what a stty time.
I've seen trailers for it starting, but had no idea it was in the twilight hours.

Copying here from the other thread:

Cross-posting something I just posted in the AoS UK screeing thread, just in case anyone has this one bookmarked and not the other:

That's the repeat, it's on Sunday 10th at 9pm on E4.

[Halb]

That makes more sense!
I was hoping that c4 were leading up to simulcasts... But a Shiite channel like c4 wouldn't do that! 😀

[irocfan]

& a reason why people use 'other means' to watch. Progs like this frequently have plot twists which, if you have to wait 3 or 4 months to watch are no longer twists or surprises :-(

[Lurking Lawyer]

Cheers ajprice - I did a search in the Sky+ app and it was the only listing it gave for S3E1.

Just checked again and the 9pm showing has now been added.

[Halb]

I see it is on E4...it was on C4, wasn't it?
