Agents of SHIELD: Season 6
- Thread starter OCD Geek
- Start date
Just in case you want to go into your rewatch fresh I will spoiler code...
After inadvertently being exposed to terrigen, Andrew transformed into the Inhuman-killing Inhuman Lash. The changes were more than physical and Garner's personality was actually subsumed by his need to eliminate Inhumans. He was killed by Hellfire while battling Hive / Ward. It was actually a disappointing and too easy of a death considering how indestructible he had been portrayed as being all season long. If I'm being honest, season 3 is the only season that has had a disappointing ending. Even the generally weak season 1 had a very strong finale, indeed the back nine episodes of season 1 are amongst my favorites. I have no such stretch of episodes in season 3.
Oh, that's right. Thanks for the refresher. I knew he became Lash and was reoccurring in that form, but I had forgotten how he died. I guess because it was so disappointing, I blocked it out.

He played four of the five Koenig quintuplets. They haven't been seen since season 4. The first Koenig that we met was Eric Koenig, which was the name of one of Nick Fury's WW2 unit, the Howling Commandoes.
Ah, yeah, I definitely blocked that out of disappointment.
Oh, and another person(s) that need to return in the final season: the Koenig brothers!
Edit: I didn't even see Jayson's post before I said the above. Jinx!

.@jeffward1230 was originally cast as Virgil, who dies after 2 episodes. He killed the table read SO HARD that the show decided to cast him as Deke instead!

Meh. Nothing against the actor, but I'm so sick of Deke. I still wish Tess had been the Lighthouse character that stuck around and not him. Bleah.

They completely won me over though when they retooled the show with Season 4. I thought the Winter Soldier arc and "4,722 Hours" were pretty solid, but the rest of Seasons 1-3 were shit. Granted, they were being executive meddled on two different fronts by Kevin Feige (forcing them to keep Hydra alive well past their sell-by date for an agonizing 40+ episodes until The Avengers killed them off in the opening minutes of their sequel) and Ike Perlmutter (forcing them to provide a ton of set up for his Inhumans film-turned-TV series).
Given that the show was originally cancelled by ABC after Season 4 (until Disney CEO Bob Iger himself stepped in and forced them to uncancel it), I'm just thrilled that we got three bonus seasons. It's nice to see a shitty show really turn things around creatively and actually be rewarded for it. This could have very easily been a Sylvester McCoy era Doctor Who/Star Trek: Enterprise situation. "Oh, shit! It finally got good!!! ...And it's dead."

I would call season 2 an equal to season 4 any day. How can you go wrong with Kyle MacLachlan? And as I said a few post back, the back 9 of season 1 are as good as anything the show has ever done.
Season 2 wasn't my cup of tea, but MacLachlan was a goddamn delight in every scene he was in. The dude was clearly having a blast, and it was infectious.
"Best. Day. Ever."
Well, I'm sad to see SHIELD go, but we got at least a couple more seasons than I expected so I can't complain. It's been a (mostly) good run.
Very well-constructed claustrophobic thriller this week — they’re clearly feeling the tight budget and favoring bottle shows, but this was a marvelously handled bottle show, with excellent structure and pacing, especially in the first half as the mystery unfolded and we tracked the enigma both back and forward. Plus we got the answer to the big mystery about Sarge.
And he's actively evading the truth about who/what he really is.
