Great, hanks.
Agreed.Honestly, I don't know what you're expecting the show to mention.
Infinity War happens over a couple days, realistically. We're likely right before the Wakanda battle in AoS time.
The only thing they could have directly mentioned is Tony Stark's name. That's really it. They can't show or even mention Spider-Man in the New York battle because of Sony and the idea is that the battle already happened (in an evacuated area, as Infinity War told us).
After the New York battle, the only other thing in the film that would be known to the public would be the results of the very end of the film and we're not there yet in AoS. The New York battle at the beginning of the film is the only thing that makes sense for the show to mention and they legally can't mention one of the three heroes involved.
Yeah, he was fantastic, owned so many scenes. The tension was great too.Okay, I'm sold on Tablot as Graviton. It's a great development for the character. He was awesome this episode.
Wow, I like it, that's a good theory.Just thinking about this, and I think that's the swerve. I'll post my speculation in spoilers, even though there's no IW info:
Thinking this through, future Yoyo said trying to save Coulson is what ended the world. Well, Daisy was trying to save Coulson by going this whole centipede route and now they have a potential Talbot stopping option. Now of course next episode they're going to have to choose what to do, and after much debate they would logically choose to use it on Talbot to save the Earth rather than save 1 man. BUT, what if that's what sets Talbot off? We know the centipede formula can potentially make a normal Human explode violently if it goes wrong, what do we think will happen if it makes Graviton kerplode? Sounds like something that would crack the planet wide open. I think the swerve will be to not use it on Graviton and instead use it on Coulson so he can do something to stop Graviton. Maybe let Graviton absorb him so Coulson can get through to him in his mind?
Man, won't happen but I'd freaking love it.I want a SHIELD movie. Just give me Daisy wrecking shit with a ridiculously high budget.
There's no way they knew that much. There's nothing in the show to suggest that they TV writers knew anything beyond having seen the trailer and the comicon/d23 footage. They knew something went down in New York...and that's it. In fact, they over estimated how big that would be. The New York fight was small, localized...a block or two of minor building and road damage and a tree or two in central park. The ship itself caused some strong winds, a few signs to blow over, a few cars have insurance claims. The news reports in SHIELD act as if a second incident happened.I personally think the showrunners knew the bare minimum necessary to do a basic tie-in. Without seeing the next episode, they probably were told"New York gets attacked by Thanos's children, the movie takes place roughly around 24 hours, and at the end half of the population dies and these are the effects we used."

When it affects the show and the future of the show being in that universe, then yeah they have to tell them. I don't know why you're being so obtuse about this.

Why? The show doesn't serve any purpose as far as Marvel Studios is concerned, and it's effectively run out of a separate division of Disney altogether post-2015. This is wishful thinking, IMO.

Of course, the heated debate the team is about to have, over which path to take, could wind up being small potatoes if TV's S.H.I.E.L.D. — having already made passing references to the events of Avengers: Infinity War — fully dovetails with the end of the blockbuster movie. (No spoilers here!) After all, this week's episode revealed that it is now daylight again on the East Coast of the United States. And if you subscribe to the math that Infinity War spanned a little over 24 hours, big things should be happening soon.
Should S.H.I.E.L.D. fans worry that small and big screen worlds will calamitously collide in the TV show's season finale next Friday?
"We think of our last few episodes taking place during the film," co-showrunner Jed Whedon said when presented with our math. "You're free to worry about anything you want to worry about," he chuckled, "but for us, really, [Episodes] 19 through 22 are pretty much one day."
On the flip side...Just thinking about this, and I think that's the swerve. I'll post my speculation in spoilers, even though there's no IW info:

At this point I expect that it's getting renewed, but that where it's renewed is currently up in the air. Explaining a lot of the dissonant weirdness surrounding this one.
Is something other than "Standard TV show on streaming service" in the mix?Not just where, but in what format. There are apparently a couple of options in consideration.
haha that's a confirmation if I've ever heard one.
edit: Holy crap stop using that goddamn word outside of spoiler text.
I'd enjoy an animated AoS.

Deke & Daisy reacting to Coulson & May kissing was too funny. Great moment
They could also mention the following but probably didn't because they weren't told about it.
Scotland. Yes it's smaller but it's still super heroes fucking shit up.
Also, the show is making the NY thing a lot bigger than it was in the movie because they didn't actually know the scope of it.
If this'll happen and we get the original writers plus voice actors plus crazy superhero budget, because Cartoon, I'd be totally okay with it.
Yeah, he really went all in, that was great.Yeah, I was cautiously optimistic at first, but he leaned into it and is is really owning it. He's been excellent.
What's crazier honestly is know pages on facebook or twitter just openly posting IW memes likeHonestly, it might be time to just allow open spoilers. After next week, we'll almost certainly be seeing the impact of the end of IW in the show itself.
But no one is talking about spoilers here really. What are you referring to? My post was mostly talking about the trailer.
Edit: Oh, I see a mod had to make an edit earlier in the page. Maybe you meant that.
What's crazier honestly is know pages on facebook or twitter just openly posting IW memes like
ESPN's pages showing players from eliminating teams in the NBA playoffs getting dusted. Like that literally the ending plot point and a company owned by Disney is doing that lol.
It's absolutely not confirmed yet but brace yourselves for bad news. It may be coming. I know people were working through the weekend at ABC on it (was talking to someone yesterday and today about it), but tonight it doesn't sound promising.
Clark Gregg removed "Coulson in AoS" from his Twitter Bio, and Chloe removed her SHIELD header.

That was not part of Gregg's Twitter bio in the first place. And Chloe still has it in her bio.
