i haven't read comics in years, so is shield like a bunch of humans who try to do shit normally and then ask for help from the avengers when they can't handle it or is avengers just like a team within shield, which has other superheroes too?

Never read the shield comics but yeah they are just a Special Forces unit and when they couldnt handle something they went and assembled the avengers and would call on them occasionally. Only real member with any superpowers was Captain America/Bruce Banner, everyone else was normal like Black Widow, Hawk Eye, Fury, Tony Stark, Hill ect. Then again I guess it all depend on what Universe you're going off of

There's actually quite a few super heroes who are shield agents as well. Ms marvel and spider-woman to name a few

The comic history of SHIELD will not have much to do with this show I imagine. It's gonna be a lot closer to X-Files than a superhero show. If they do it right it will be like the various "case of the week" cop type shows, just with superpowers. Either powered person is killed, or person is killed in a way that indicates it was a superpowered killer. Engage Castle/L&O/CSI mode.

I wouldn't be surprised if it started as basically a superheroic procedural, but given Whedon's past work, there will be underlying plot buried even in the early part of the season.

I think this could work.

Mesh the typical weekly Network Cop show with Marvel universe.

Every week they investigate a case involving various mutants and super humans needing to be classified for shield. Have a X files like Hero of the week. Franchise help drives ratings as well. Could be good.

And the guy that plays Coulson is good enough to be the main character on an ABC show. Cast seems solid considering what it is.

Executives at Warner Brothers have to be pissing their pants. DC Comics has been part of a major media conglomerate for over 30 years and the best they've managed is admittedly kickass animated series and Smallville/Arrow. Disney buys Marvel and within a few years has a dominant multi-picture franchise in the form of the Marvel Movie Universe but also manages to tie it into this on their major network? The only thing holding Marvel back now is that their IP is scattered across several different companies thanks to really bad decisions regarding movie rights in the 80s
