Does anyone else get the feeling that we are getting Doctor Gemma this season? Girl has a "full dark, no stars" kind of vibe.

Now I want Fitz to maim murder and hardscrabble his way back from the edges of deep space and declare his true love ... for Daisy. Everyone's reactions would be amazing

Yeah it made no sense to have YoYo there considering her superpower. She should have been outside and ran in as soon as he swallowed.
I want a full on Man Mountain fight. Thank you to whoever said Snow was in Almighty Johnson, I was wracking my brain as she seemed familiar.

Also, Almighty Johnsons is on Prime. Go watch if you haven't already, it's hilarious.

I just want to point out that most of season 5 was shield, in an unknown environment, basically screwing up over and over because they failed to adapt. Deke is a tech mogul now. Dude is smart, savvy if not strictly intelligent.

Wow, May went all in on that fight with Sarge didn't she! I was clapping and cheering at that point. Good idea to stage it in close quarters after her completely loving up the Shrike guy, though I think she could have at least taken an eye out to really sell it.

Overjoyed that there is an Evil Jemma, and Evil Fitz is her soulmate. Surprised they went Bloody Mary in their interpretation though it does make a nice contrast to Leopold.

Here for Mack n Turbo. I will never get tired of that wonderful bro- lationship.

Fun episode all round, lots of heart bruised moments and solid Hells Yeah!

I liked Fitz Simmons when they were a nerdy pair of nerd friends who kind of unsettled everyone else. I liked them less when Fitz loved Simmons and was kind of a wierdo creeper about his unrequited feelings. Then urrrgh when Simmons loved Fitz back but to my delight they saved the whole thing by making them freaking awesome and very scary

I love Enoch, he's part of the family now. It's funny how characters like Mack and YoYo weren't there at the beginning but now I can't imagine the show without them.

If anything, Simmonds is the scarier genius because she is able to be so nice and normal. Fitz is, well, rather an arsehole tbh and arrogant with it so you start to expect Mad Science.

Urgh, everyone is just do loving stupid this week. Yes, Daisy, you especially. You were trained in hand to hand by the best, you were specifically hiding your power and you react to such a blatant attack? And you, geniuses, everything is weird on your ship and you just shrug it off? Jesus Christ on a bike.

Also Izel should be Aida in a wig. They brought Coulson back, why not her too? It would totally gently caress with Fitzsimmons too

Does it seem obvious to everyone else that the first thing they should do is blow up the tower? Then there's nothing for the truck to run into, and nothing to grow once the wig lady gets there.

Ok, firstly gently caress everyone for killing Davis, that was drat unfair and unneeded. It wasn't even a heroes death. Also, gently caress everyone double for doing what Mack expressly said not to do (give Izel a powerful host).

However, deke being absolutely covered in hickies is just LOL so, maybe they are forgiven.

She's the reason that remains my favorite season. Just watching her act is mesmerizing.

She was up against Ian de Caestecker (most talented regular) and John Hannah (hugely talented guest) and she effortlessly held her own. She should be a much bigger name than she is, considering she acts, sings and you know, looks the way she does.

Chloe Bennett IS very pretty but that shouldn't be the criteria for appearing in the movies. In actual acting talent she's mid tier in the TV series even.
I can see Fitz or Simmons appearing as generic science people, they'd fit right in with the technobabble.

Rewatching, on season 4 and on reflection I think Jemma Simmons is my new favourite character. Realistic, incremental development! Actual flaws and bad ideas! Makes mistakes and learns from them!

They left Enoch behind, those bastards! Poor Enoch, he always get the lovely end of the stick. The actor is fantastic at hangdog expressions (fantastic in general really).

Fun episode, Daisy getting on my tits with her 'we must change things!' bullshit. Everyone's told her to stay in mission but she can't help being all emotional and poo poo.

May is weird rn. I think she actually died and a protector goddess from Izels world came back in her body.

For 30 thousand year old chronicom, Enoch is bitchy as gently caress about 40 years.
I love it! I love him. Never let them forget they left you behind Enoch. Make em suffer!

Also, Daniel sousa is an absolute gem. it is a crime he wasn't picked-up earlier so we could get more of his moments. The hi tech computer room, the small computer, his glee over cellphone pictures. Also really loved the Peggy hints.

This is how he can be left in the seventies, and not age when they meet up next. That man looks incredibly good for his age and him and Ming Na Wen need to donate their bodies to science 😂

Anyway. I kind of want Deke and Mack to find babies Mack and Mack and raise them right. Become the family they need.

Just binged the whole season over the last two days and dang, why isn't Enver Gjokaj in everything? He's great. I am loving this season really don't want it to end. They're dropping so many references to poo poo I've almost forgotten about that I think I need to rewatch the entire thing, just can't decide if I start doing that now or wait until season 7 finishes.

Agreed about Enver. He can sing, dance and act as per AOS and Carter. He should be a lot more famous than he is.

I've seen bits of DollHouse but the main character's lack of, well, let's just say charisma, put me right off. Also the sexdoll stuff was just nooooo. I do remember Dichen was in it, she's good too.

I liked the slightly off lyrics and the 'daisy!' insert. Deke still carries a bit of a torch for Lady Deathquake.

Also Deke has so much heart. He's quite selfish and fairly unprincipled, which makes sense as a survivor, and makes for a rounded character.

May and Yoyo are great together. I'm glad the final season is exploring some new relationships - Mack and Deke, May and YoYo, Deke and Enoch- and having fun with it.

I like that Nathaniel is the big bad tbh. We had a season of Whitehall afterall, and Nathaniel is far more unstable and chaotic. A spoilt little rich brat with incredible power loving up everything....hmmmm topical.
