Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was de tie in voor de Marvel Cinematic Universe films, alleen verliep alles anders dan verwacht. Het was niet slecht en het was niet super en door het herkauwen van karakters en decors haakte veel kijkers waaronder mijzelf af, zelfs de komst van Ghost Rider kon het zinkende schip niet meer redden. Vandaag is bekend geworden dat het zevende seizoen een einde maakt aan de serie. Maar daar over kan je alles hier onder lezen.

The simplest answer is so that we can end on our terms, really. How many shows do you know that just suddenly ended, and you feel like, but wait a minute, there was more. Yes, in the chronology of this is we thought Season 5 was the end. If you go back and you look at the end of that season, it is written that way. Actually, the last episode of that season is called “The End.” Honestly, we thought we were turning out the lights and going home when we got a call from ABC that said, the material is so strong, do you think you have another season, do you think you have another 13 because we sort of like this idea of doing it again.


Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen and Jeff Bell, who have been there from the very beginning, went away and came back and said, we have a cool idea. That cool idea became Season 6. The show started to come in, then about halfway through that season we get another call from ABC's Channing Dungey, who is a big fan of the show, super supportive, and she says, how about a Season 7?”
