Few weeks ago, it was announced that Joss Whedon would be writing and directing The Avengers sequel. It was also announced that he would be attached to a Marvel TV Show for ABC network. Was it going to be the Hulk Tv show, Was he in collaboration with Del Torro or was it some smaller character he was bringing to the small screen?

Now, it has been finally announced that, the series Whedon would be working on is none other that S.H.I.IE.L.D. (Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate or Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division). He is set to write S.H.I.E.L.D. along with Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen who worked with him on Dollhouse and Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog. To add to this wonderful news, it was also announced that, he would be directing the pilot too.

My question is – When should we start protesting for it to be un-cancelled? Firefly went on for 1 season and got cancelled, Dollhouse went on for 2 season and got cancelled.. So logically this should last for 3 seasons?

Anyway, this is one of the best pieces of new I’ve received. With the death of Tony Scott and Neil Armstrong, this news was just right to lighten up the rest of the week!
