Recycled plot lines? Among any superhero TV show, AoS has had the most diverse plot lines. How many times was Agent Ward the villain? How many times have they faced off with Hydra? Each time they say Hydra is dead, Hydra returns-- usually with Ward playing a role in the whole thing. How many times has SHIELD has gone underground, been legitimized, been disgraced and gone underground again? How many times has Daisy turned away from the team and come back? Half of the show revolves around the Fitz-Simmons love story, which is stale in its own right. Coulson is dying, no wait he's fine, no wait he's dying. The show sucks. It has its bright spots (Ghost Rider, Mac, Bobbi, the occasional Coulson one-liner), but the writing sucks. They spent half a season in an imaginary world with virtually (see what I did there?) no stakes; and followed that up by going into an alternate future with no stakes whatsoever. The cartoon villains in the latest season were the worst of the show to date. I support it because it's Marvel-- and make no mistake, there have been legitimately good episodes. But overall, the show sucks. What superhero tv shows are you comparing it to? I don't watch the CW garbage or that Gotham show if it's still on the air. Comparing AoS to the Netflix Marvel shows is a joke. I love the show but it really is time for Hydra to die. In the show and the movies. I didn't mind it in the virtual because it was interesting for me to see a Hydra controlled world, but I'm tired of it in general. AoS and the Marvel Netflix are very different in tone but they can all have inconsistent or repetitive writing. The Hand/ninjas have been getting pretty tiring.
I wouldn't say there were NO stakes. They all could die in that world then die in real life, but I do understand what you're saying.
Like I showed earlier, I enjoy some seasons of AoS more than some seasons of the Netflix shows. I'd say some of the best AoS episodes are better than a decent amount of the Netflix shows, in my opinion.
