AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Reportedly Casts Anthony Michael Hall, Brings Two Guest Stars Back For Season 6

@hummingbird68 - no problem my man ;-) SHIELD is a perfect reason to come out of 'retirement' and put an article out!

So...
- Daisy's centipede serum enhancement will be focused on in season 6, the showrunners have said this much
- I'm not sure if they are going off to space immediately. I thought that they were on the Zephyr at the end of season 5 and preparing to head out to find Fitz. But the first look photo is of Mack at the Lighthouse (which I guess is the new AoS land base). But a good chunk of the season seems to be space-based. Chronicom hunters evidently show up, and I think they are going to be hunting Enoch.
- I'm guessing that when we see May next, she has already left Coulson and he has passed
- Vijay Nadir is the one big plot thread that they haven't addressed yet. I'm guessing they handle it in season 6 or 7

@hummingbird68 - my ranking:

1. Season 4
2. Season 5
3. Season 3
4. Season 2
5. Season 1

I found season 1 pretty dull and boring until the Kree body shows up, and then the rest of the season was great. Yes, in hindsight there was a lot of 'world' building and character development going on, and that was necessary for the rest of the season to be as good as it was. But I can certainly understand watching it so much for it to hold a special place for you!

Best SHIELD episode ever is definitely 4x15. And my pick for best pod was the future space pod (first 10 episodes of season 5), that really showed there was no bounds for what this show could achieve. There's a lot of fantastic episodes, and a lot of really great moments. The Devil Complex (which features the show's best acting courtesy of Iain), Past Life (which has one of the show's most beautiful moments, the epic music scene that begins with Flint in space), all fantastic moments from last season. Probably the saddest, most emotional moments for me: Hunter and Bobby's goodbye, Lincoln's sacrifice (his final words with Daisy, his speech with Hive), future Fitz dying, even Radcliffe's final drink on the beach. Best villain was Aida, best 'guest' character was Ghost Rider.

I could go on and on about the plethora of great episodes and moments from this show!

@bobevanz - Michael Anthony Hall as Dexter Morgan would have been very interesting lol

@MrCamw1 - freaking love that movie

@Luigi - yes. And in a universe where the earth wasn't cracked apart

@Repian - If they have Walker on the show, I hope they show how brutal he can be. Dude was like the love-child of Captain America & The Punisher.

@MalseMarcel - yeah that's a curious statement in the article, "set in a post-Avengers End Game world". Which itself would sure seem to suggest that it would have to on some level acknowledging whatever the hell happens in End Game, and yet with how we know the security level was just on Infinity War, it's gotta be 100 damn times that for the true conclusion. And so a significant portion of that would be shared with (what would then have to be) an entire show's writing/producing staff? (not to mention to some degree the actors)
And a series that has only gotten further and further away from really bothering trying to connect with the cinematic universe with each additional season?
sounds kinda fishy.

@HeavyMetal4Life - To be honest I think that communication is very limited. Season 5 didn’t deal with Infinity War’s aftermath and Feige doesn’t seem to acknowledge the shows at all

@HeavyMetal4Life - I meant more of how the snap affected the show. I think three episodes were released after Infinity War, and with prior episodes released after a movie they did tie into the movie. But guess we'll see how it ties into season 6

@StarlordsDad - well in the beginning, at least, it was. Very MUCH so, it's like the entire second half of season 1 was designed to go hand in hand with The Winter Soldier.
That's why I had so much fun with (insert bit of shameless self-promotion here) the extended edit I made a few years ago, where I took all of Winter Soldier and spliced it back and forth in chronological order with the most relevant portions of the last 7 episodes of AoS season 1, to make a 4 hour movie all around the discovery of and beginning of the "Hydra War". It got the most play of any fan edit stuff I've ever done.
