Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S3, Ep.20 Recap & Review – ‘Emancipation’

Today’s theme is choice. Let’s just get it out there: Hive is a very charismatic character whose ideals sound incredibly appealing and noble. He’s the oldest being on the planet (that we know of), meaning he has wisdom that stretches far beyond that of any one person. He aims to stop war, famine, disease, and anything else that...

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S3, Ep.19 Recap & Review – ‘Failed Experiments’

From failure comes success. Or, at the very least, some form of it. We learn so much from our failures (sometimes) because it shuts down avenues of possibility. It’s a “When one door closes, another opens” kind of thinking. But then there are those who have yet to experience such failure and have yet to know what could happen...

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S3, Ep.18 Recap & Review – ‘The Singularity’

A lot is happening. We’re getting closer and closer to the season finale and there’s still plenty of setting up before the big day. Daisy and Hive are after Inhumans and potential Inhumans. Couslon and friends are searching for a cure from Hive’s control, and finding a certain fringe scientist is their only hope. Plus...

Legends of Tomorrow Recap & Review – ‘Last Refuge’

There are already a few similarities — there’s a time ship that looks way bigger inside than it should be, the captain is a rogue time traveller, his jerk bosses want to stop him, and the captain...

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S3, Ep.17 Recap & Review – ‘The Team’

This week marks the first time we see some version of Daisy’s Secret Warriors band together to work as one super-powered team to save Team S.H.I.E.L.D. Giyera takes the S.H.I.E.L.D. plane straight to Hydra base where Hive and Gideon prepare to meet their new captives. Meanwhile Daisy and Lincoln call back Joey and Yo-Yo to help them...

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S3, Ep.16 Recap & Review – ‘Paradise Lost’

In case you haven’t noticed, I’ve been watching a lot of TV this season. What I’ve noticed across almost every show that I have been watching this year are two specific themes: you can’t change your fate, and the past always comes back to bite you in the ass. We see these a lot in superhero stories anyway and in many...
