Essentially it's an intergalactic peacekeeping force - SHIELD in space, really, dealing with extraterrestrial threats to Earth. Generally run by Abigail Brand (of the gorgeous green hair), and associated with Carol Danvers and even the Guardians of the Galaxy. Which really does open up the show to the galactic…

Oh my god, that was intense. My stomach felt like it was curling up in knots the whole time. And that title isn't kidding, huh? World's End indeed. What does that final moment with Coulson mean?? He's… working on some space station in the middle of nowhere?? Is this AoS' way of jumping into Infinity Wars whether or…

I'M SO VERY HAPPY. To get these storytellers/characters/writers back, I'd be fine, I guess, even if they had to slash the budget and the show had to lose much of its (super good) VFX. Maybe next season Ghost Rider will be wearing a brown paper bag over his head with an orange skull painted on it. To get the flamey…

Seconded. I watched her in Galavant before she landed this role on AoS. And she was already remarkable then - cold and evil but with a twisted heart. Also she sings!! She sings villain songs about being a villain! What's not to LOVE. (Oh man, bring Galavant back.)

Good lord, this show is so completely unapologetic about how damn good it is right now. It just keeps blowing itself out of the water with every successive episode. You think they'll take all episode to break out of the station? Lol nope. We could have had half a season of Fitz fretting and crying about being in love…

What in god's name can we do to get this show renewed? I know I say this every week, and have been saying it every week since the LMD arc (I enjoyed but didn't LOVE Ghost Rider), but this is A+ top-notch quality television in ANY genre. Such a masterfully crafted episode, with so many twists and turns - most of them…

Yes, I thought that was a great touch - a hint that we're really heading back to the world/SHIELD as we know it. This show thinks of everything. I love it!

The way she leaned into him and said, "I followed you", was pretty much the moment my head exploded tbh. It could have been hokey but they really sold it.

Another sublime episode full of character development/insights and callbacks. The showrunners said that this final pod of episodes would reward long-time viewers and, boy, are they right! Watching from the very beginning - falling in love with these characters, getting to know them, rooting for them and fearing for…

Absolutely agree with you both!! I definitely would not have called AoS amazing in the first half of Season 1 - it was okay, occasionally good. But it wasn't any worse than a lot of other freshman shows, and certainly not as terrible as naysayers were saying. I think people were expecting high-octane thrills, with…

I'm a defender of AoS from Season 1 (I didn't find it bland and boring even in the first half). And even I'm sitting here going: who knew this show would be so devastatingly good so many seasons down the line? This is honestly some of the best television on air right now, and as a comic-book adaptation, is pretty much…

Absolutely agree - but the show has had a tendency to do that with its (standard-issue, white, male) characters. Lincoln bored the heck out of me for most of his early episodes, and there seemed to be little to no chemistry between him and Daisy. But, by the end of his arc on the show, I was bereft. I'd come to care…

As an addendum, this line should really read: "This is a tale of men and monsters and machines, and how they are formed by the choices they made and all the things that broke or saved them."

With every episode, it gets ever more certain that this show is going to SERIOUSLY MESS US UP by the end of the season. I'm already having trouble dealing with living in this reality and this timeline that gives me an incredible show and wonderful characters like these… And then throws them into this nightmare…

In a world turned upside down, with heroes dead or no longer themselves, I do believe one thing remains true: Jemma Simmons is the Captain America we all deserve. I LOVED it when she was sassing that boy in the car park - although I agree that him giving her his car was the most ridiculous thing about this episode…

Well, now that's all I want in life.

YES. THIS. I hate that every comment about the show starts with something along the likes of: 'after a bumpy first season', 'after a troubling start', 'with teething problems out of the way' - my goodness. If we DIDN'T have a chunk of episodes establishing the team and drawing out the characters and dynamics so…

Panic attack is right. I watched it at my desk at work and my face must have been a picture. I spent most of it going WHAT. And some of it going NO, WHAT! and also WHAT IS HAPPENING! I haven't been as emotionally shaken by a show in a very long time. What a glorious episode. This seals the deal - Agents of SHIELD is…

WHAT. AN. ABSOLUTELY. FUCKING. AMAZING. EPISODE. Easily the best the show has ever produced (and it's produced some corkers), with a seamless blend of character work, action, humour and heartbreak.

"D'DEW is the most powerful force to ever exist. With it, you can control events, bend them to your will, turn everything to your favour…" SOUNDS LIKE THE FRAMEWORK TO ME! Is this ABC's way of telling us that #GalavantLives???
