From the early days where everything tied in wonderfully with the MCU films, to this last episode where the show's own path comes to a fantastic conclusion, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D has been consistently one of the best superhero TV series to ever exist. With constantly evolving concepts and stories, real character development, and a heartwarming mix of drama, action and comedy, this will hopefully go down as a show to stand the test of time.
A lot of people talked about the divergence of the timelines in this series, and wondered if it was pushing towards rejoining the MCU as a whole, but I'm so glad they didn't. While the first few seasons handled the movie tie-ins with skill, being given the freedom to craft their own narrative in the last few years has helped Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D come into their own, this last episode being a prime example. The combination of not only this season's stories, but all the history behind it gave everything a bittersweet feeling that felt perfectly set, mimicking the characters themselves.
Will I be sad to see it go? Of course. Do I think they should make more? No. The stories we've witnessed were told just as they were meant to be, and we can't ask for more than that.
"A thing isn't beautiful because it lasts. It's a privilege to be among them."
