I thought Coulson's enigmatic quips were fun when he was a supporting character, but got kind of annoying hearing one every ten seconds. Loved his entrance though. It is a shame Cobie Smulders is tied to HIMYM, but as it is that show's last season, I assume she'll be there for next season. Don't like the male agent, but Skye and Melinda May are cool. Everyone else is on kinda "whatevs, brah" status.
You're right about the archetype thing; it's like Whedon has one spreadsheet for all his stuff and just plugs characters in as necessary.
I'll probably tune in again to see if it gets better, but yeah, there are other shows of its type that sound more interesting.
