TV Episode Review - Watchdogs (Agents of SHIELD S3, E14) + A Dead Man Feels No Cold (Gotham S2, E13)

This time, SHIELD tackle an online hate group with terrorist like intentions while in Gotham (which returned this week by the way) Mr. Fries becomes the Freeze we all know and like:

Watchdogs
Following the events of the last episode, Mack takes some down time to be with his brother while SHIELD tackle the online hate group known as Watchdogs (which is kind of ironic considering that there is a game called that as well, but with an underscore) and some interesting events occur. There is some stuff going on in this episode. I don't think its the best one I've seen, but I think Marvel did the right move in not making the name of the episode sound like that video game. Its saved them from being sued by Ubisoft (though I don't know which is bigger between the two). 7/10

A Dead Man Feels No Cold
Long story short, this episode is more or less dedicated to Mr. Freeze who throughout the episode, we see slowly becoming the anti-hero we all know and love. Despite this, we do still see how Penguin is getting on at the Asylum while Bruce carries on with investigating the murder of his parents. Not much else to say than that. Its a good episode that carries on the theme of giving us the origins of many of Batman's villains old and new and I'm satisfied with the way they handled Freeze here. Knowing the Batman world like I do, this won't be the last we see of him no doubt. 9/10
