Ok how do I review this series? We’ll I’m gonna do something different this time, I’m gonna give brief rundown of each Season then talk about spoilers for major occurrences in each Season. But first here’s the list of good guys and bad guys In this whole show.

Good guys:

Phil Coulson (died in Avengers 2012, but now is back from the dead thanks to the Tahiti Project)

Daisy Johnson (introduced in season 1) (there’s more to her then meets the eye, she’s looking for her father who left her long ago)

Melinda May (introduced in season 1) (is Phil’s second in command)

Jemma Simmons (introduced in season 1) (she’s one of the smartest scientists of Shield) (also both her and Fitz end up in a relationship down the line)

Leo Fitz (introduced in season 1) (he’s one of the smartest scientists of Shield) (also both him and Jemma end up in a relationship down the line)

Agent Grant Ward (introduced in season 1) (is there more to him than meets the eye?) (Also he’s the tough guy)

John Garrett (introduced in season 1) (is there more to him?)

Antoine Triplett (introduced at the end of season 1)

Glenn Talbot (a US general who hates Shield) (he was introduced in season 1 and ends up becoming a recurring character)

Daniel Sousa (introduced in season 2) (he’s a technician and he’s an Agent Of Shield) (but there’s more to him)

Deke Shaw (introduced in season 5) (he’s a somewhat nerdy guy who has ambitions)

Bobbi Morse (introduced in season 2) (there’s more to her)

(Hunter) (introduced in season 2) (he had an on and off again relationship with Bobbi)

Robbie Reyes (introduced in season 4) (he’s a ghost rider, yep we technically have ghost rider in the MCU)

Robert Gonzales (is Bobbi’s boss who’s investigating Phil Coulson when he becomes head of Shield) (also he’s introduced in season 2)

Bad guys:

Hive (introduced in season 3) (he’s the original hydra)

Kasius (introduced in season 5) (he’s one of the 3 villains in that season)

Ruby Hale (introduced in season 5) (she’s the daughter of this woman in charge of hydra in season 5, her name was forgettable) (this character is a cold blooded killer)

Daniel Whitehall (introduced in season 2) (he’s a cold hearted psychopath who’s the leader of hydra)

Aida (introduced in season 2) (was once a good guy named Agent 33, but then was brainwashed)

Graviton (he was General Talbot until he turned nuts) (introduced in season 5)

Agent Grant Ward (what? He’s a villain? What a shocker, yeah he works for hydra)

John Garrett (what he’s also a villain? What a twist, yeah he’s also hydra and Grant was trained and raised by Garrett)

Rose-dressed Woman (that’s her name yes, and she’s only in the first 2 seasons)

Is Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Canon to the MCU? Yes. Stop Gaslighting Me, Kevin.

Let’s get one thing straight: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was created as an official MCU tie-in. It literally launched off the events of The Avengers (2012) and Iron Man 3 (2013), and directly reacted to Captain America: The Winter Soldier (the HYDRA twist changed the entire trajectory of Season 1). Nick Fury, Maria Hill, Lady Sif, and even freaking Samuel L. Jackson showed up. The show acknowledged the movies. The movies just didn’t return the favor.

“But Marvel never said it was canon—”
YES. THEY DID. At the time. Go back and look at press interviews from 2013–2015. Feige didn’t start walking it back until he wanted full control of everything under Marvel Studios. That’s not retcon. That’s a business power shift.

Even past that? The Darkhold in WandaVision is a rebooted prop—but that doesn’t mean Agents is invalid. Marvel rebooted the Book of Vishanti too. Props change. Timelines splintered after Endgame and Loki. It’s easy to argue Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. takes place in one of the branching timelines post-Avengers. Boom. Fixed.

Also:

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. introduced the Inhumans before anyone else.

It handled the multiverse and time travel before the movies.

The Kree were in the show long before Captain Marvel hit the screen.

Ghost Rider showed up. That’s commitment.

Coulson was resurrected. The same dude who died in The Avengers. That’s as MCU as it gets.


If Disney wants to erase it from canon because they didn’t make it themselves, that’s on them. But from a story, continuity, and character standpoint? Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is MCU canon. You just need to accept that it lives in the multiverse sandbox they built and then promptly forgot to organize.

Clearly this isn’t every character, these are the ones I remember. Also does anyone remember this ABC Logo intro that played at the beginning of Agents Of Shield?

If u do then u r a veterinarian

Agents Of Shield Season 1:
Spoilers – The big twist of Season 1 is the Hydra infiltration of S.H.I.E.L.D. as revealed in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, which hits the team like a freight train. Ward turns out to be a Hydra agent, betraying the team and breaking hearts. John Garrett is revealed as the real puppet master working with Hydra, and Coulson’s Tahiti resurrection is explored as a shady, mind-altering project. Skye is revealed to be an Inhuman named Daisy Johnson, and her father may be dangerous.

Agents Of Shield Season 2:
Spoilers – We go deeper into Hydra and Inhumans. Whitehall is introduced as a creepy Nazi doctor who experimented on Skye’s mom and dismembered her for longevity. Skye meets her biological parents—her mom Jiaying becomes a key antagonist who wants war between Inhumans and humans. Coulson builds a new version of S.H.I.E.L.D., clashing with Robert Gonzales’ faction. Ward continues spiraling into deeper villainy. Bobbi and Hunter are introduced and almost get a spinoff that never happened.

Agents Of Shield Season 3:
Spoilers – Hive, the ancient Inhuman, possesses Ward’s dead body, turning him into a cult leader trying to create an army of Inhumans. Lash, an Inhuman monster, turns out to be May’s ex. Fitz and Simmons go through space and trauma—she gets trapped on an alien planet for months. Lincoln (Skye’s love interest) sacrifices himself in the finale to kill Hive and save Earth. Coulson straight-up murders Ward in the snow before Hive takes over his corpse.

Agents Of Shield Season 4:
Spoilers – This is the Ghost Rider season, and it’s broken into three arcs: Ghost Rider, LMDs, and The Framework. Robbie Reyes bonds with the Spirit of Vengeance, while Aida (a robot assistant) becomes sentient, turns villain, and creates a virtual world where Hydra rules. Fitz becomes a twisted Hydra scientist in that world. The team escapes, but at great emotional cost. The Darkhold (a cursed book) plays a major role. By the end, Coulson makes a deal with the Ghost Rider and uses the power to kill Aida.

Agents Of Shield Season 5:
Spoilers – Time jump! The team is flung into a dystopian future where Earth is shattered and ruled by Kree, including Kasius. They fight to return to the past and stop that apocalypse from happening. Gravitonium becomes a major plot element, leading to Talbot going full villain as Graviton. Daisy is accused of destroying the Earth in the future. Deke Shaw turns out to be Fitz and Simmons’ grandson. Fitz dies, but there’s a spare version of him in stasis. Oh yeah, Coulson is dying—again—and he walks off into a Hawaiian sunset with May.

Agents Of Shield Season 6:
Spoilers – Coulson is dead (kind of), but a new character named Sarge who looks like Coulson arrives. Turns out he’s a fragment of a being from another dimension. We get more alien mythology and dark monoliths. Sarge’s team hunts alien parasites, but he starts to become more Coulson-like. Fitz and Simmons reunite. Eventually, Sarge dies and the team starts prepping for time travel.

Agents Of Shield Season 7:
Spoilers – Time travel hijinks! The final season is basically a love letter to the show’s history and classic genres. The team jumps to different decades to stop the Chronicoms from erasing S.H.I.E.L.D. from history. We get noir episodes, ’80s hijinks, and even a time loop episode. In the finale, Coulson becomes an LMD, Daisy fakes her death to stop the villains, and the team parts ways in a bittersweet ending. Fitz and Simmons get their happy ending offscreen. The series ends with the team scattered and S.H.I.E.L.D.’s future uncertain, but hopeful.
