I just finished watching it. She's got an angsty past, sooper speshul computer science powers, and she's an amazing field agent on her first undercover mission. She's a Mary Sue.

She gets credit for quick thinking and learning. She did remember how to disarm the guy and got away pretty quick.

Everyone has a special past and special powers and are amazing agents. That's the whole team. Why does she get the special hate?

Because she gets the spotlight and the narrative that tells us over and over how awesome she is. Team Nerd might be the same, but they're not shoved in my face every other scene so they don't get the hate.

Yeah, but the whole 'truth serum' thing was likely a hoax and I'm not convinced that her sooper spheshul computer science powers are all that super special, given that Ward had already all the info she offered to get into from SHIELD files.

How was she an amazing field agent on her first try? She got busted and she only got in because of her Rising Tide connections. Yeah, she scraped by when she was made but it didn't seem as though she actually had a plan aside from "don't get killed" and she certainly couldn't sell the bad guy the idea that she's playing SHIELD instead of the other way around.

As for the angsty past;: so do Ward and May, and Coulson might not even actually be Coulson. One, it's their world is based on comics where everyone has a tragic past and two, the characters were created by Whedon.

Based on only the pilot I would have agreed with you, but since then they toned the Sue-ness down and started giving the characters depth, which is why I personally think that just yelling Sue is unfair at this point.

Not to mention lives in a van, yet is ridiculously put together. I know they're all attractive but come on. Muss her hair. Put some glasses on her. At least pretend.

If they'd at least introduced her up to her elbows in oil, grease, or yuck as she tried to fix the engine on her van after it had crapped out due to her, well, due to her living in a van with no visible means of support and presumably not being able to fix the van. Perhaps even have her having greasy hair and a grotty hat too. Yes, she can look DDG after being given a shower on the Smug-Jet, but they should have introduced her as having looked as if she lived in a van. Hell, she isn't even as realistic as Penny the suspiciously well dressed and groomed for a part-time waitress and broke actress in TBBT.
