I watched this series when it was on TV, and I think I always thought it was just good. But now, I'm binge watching it on Netflix and halfway through season 3, and it's a LOT more enjoyable than I remember.

Did I forget it was a really good show in the first few seasons and then fell into mediocrity, or is it much more enjoyable because I'm able to binge watch it?

Great show and one of my faves for a while, but like many it probably went on a little too long. I was out once they hit season 6 I believe it was. Just a little too far out there for my tastes.

Still rate it very highly though and scratches that "underdogs doing work with no credit" thing I love. Will also add that AoS Ghostrider is by FAR the best one and when the spinoff idea was cancelled I was genuinely upset.

I wonder if I should finally give this a shot. I watched a few episodes of S3 but watching it live, with commercials, was a real beating. Maybe it's better as a binge?

My favorite season was Ghost Rider/LMD. It was slow to start and fizzled a little at the end, but the turn in season 1 was amazing and it was really good TV for most of its run.

I'll be the dissenter and say it's just not a good show... I watched the first few seasons and found some parts enjoyable, and hey... we all love Phil Coulson. But compared to the *real* MCU and now seeing what they're doing with Wandavision... it's just so cheap and lame. But if you enjoy Marvel you'll probably like it.

Typical network show and just waaaaay too many episodes per season, and just went on and on.

Enjoyed it but stopped right around GhostRider. First season was choice.

Thought the show was fantastic during the rise of hydra. It was great during inhumans. It was good with lmd arc (mostly because evil Fitz). Then it got a bit out there for me, although I did eventually watch it all.

Why couldn't they just acknowledge the snap?

I'm a huge fan of the MCU, but bailed on this after two seasons. This may have been good with a Netflix style 10 episode per season format, but just went on way too long.

I think it's a pretty good show that works better as a Netflix binge type show. It takes some time to find its footing and then goes on a strong run, but eventually starts to decline toward the end. I think the characters are all great but the story gets pretty convoluted.

On second thought... I don't know if I can stomach low budget CGI. I'm sure it's not the worst but I saw some of the inhuman special effects. WandaVision has spoiled me.

at this point, they should just say that this was an alternate Earth, b/c not acknowledging the snap is a huge oversight.

I realize that the making of IW and Endgame was very secretive, so the writers couldn't prepare for it. They do briefly mention Thanos attacking Wakanda in the time travel season, but that was prior to IW release, it's obvious that the only info they had was from the movie trailer.

What would have been cool with SHEILD (same with netflix shows if they hadn't been canceled) would have been to fill in the 5-year gap. Earth would have been in total chaos immediately following the snap. World governments in disarray with vanishing heads of state. It would have been neat to see the lower tier heroes step up and help restore order.

I like the idea of filling in the 5-year gap.

Would watch!

Really liked the show. I have seen every episode. I haven't watched it on Netflix yet. While I did enjoy it overall, the series probably went on too long.

I just finished binge watching it, and I did enjoy it a lot more this time around. In fact, I think the series finished strong, and the only really weak part was Talbot. That character wasn't good to begin with, and he only got worse.
