The Review at the End of the Universe
“The Last Day” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD debates the finer points of time travel as the team try to figure out their next move. The reveal in the previous episode of the older version of Robin (Willow Hale) was no real surprise as she is the most natural fit for being the source of all…
“Together or Not at All” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD reunites the majority of the team and starts to move towards the end game of the future set outer space story arc. Nobody could accuse this season of being slow so far. Things have moved along at an impressive clip which means that there are fewer…
“Fun & Games” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD brings Fitz back into the fold and moves forward with his plan to rescue his friends under Kasius’ control. Fitz being in the future is a great thing all on its own because it brings the entire cast together even if they haven’t been in the same scene…
“Rewind” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD goes back to the past to explore what Fitz got up to after the rest of his team were taken. Fitz being absent from the show this season has been a burning concern both in and out of universe. Other than a vague postcard promising that Fitz is on the…
“A Life Earned” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD continues to build the world of the dystopian future as the characters navigate their new surroundings in different ways.

“Orientation Parts 1 & 2” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD begins its 5th season by sending the team into space and exploring their new surroundings. The cliffhanger ending at the end of last season was a really compelling one as it set up a really compelling altered premise for the show to explore. These episodes capitalise…
“World’s End” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD closes off another season and wraps up the Framework plot and deals with Ophelia’s plan. The return of Ghost Rider at the end of the previous episode was both a blessing and a curse when anticipating this episode. On one hand it’s great to see Gabriel Luna come back…
“The Return” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD returns to the real world and deals with the immediate problems that come with that. The immediate problem is that Aida is now a real person with a collection of InHuman powers and Fitz in her possession. Much of the episode is spent exploring what it means to suddenly…
“Farewell, Cruel World” Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD engineers an exit from the framework as Aida’s plan to make herself human comes to a head. It’s been interesting and fun to spend time in the Framework but we are so close to the end of the season that things need to start wrapping up. The new…
