Director Whedon, sorry to say, isn't as interesting or as entertaining as the television scribe.
My mileage doesn't vary sadly. I'm not hating Agents of Shield but some of the characters are very familiar. I think the problem with Joss is that he is now allowed to do what he wants to do rather than what he needed to do, to paraphrase him nastily. He's able now to put his beloved world of comics on TV, where it doesn't necessarily fit, instead of the character exploration he did so much better. Sigh!
