I hope next week's finale at least has a satisfying, conclusive ending, since it seems like the show is dead.
Totally chillin

This isn't denial. There's simply no reason to think that yet. The last word we heard was that it's in contention.
I'm not saying it can't be cancelled. There is no reason to think "it seems like the show is dead."
3. A third option isn't as clear as those, as it seems like there may be an idea for some kind of "spinoff" featuring some of the characters on a much smaller scale than the regular series.
It's in "it could go either way" status, not "it's likely dead" status. How do you not understand the distinction there?
They're not going to do a spinoff with "some" of the characters. Either it comes back or it doesn't.
Deke keeps randomly shifting through time >> Quantum Leap rebootYeah we already know Most Wanted got thrown into the trash. I don't see what else they could do (aside from a Ghost Rider limited series).
Why do I get the feeling something changed in the hour I've been away...?
Wait, what's going on? Why did this thread jump 5 pages since I last looked at it? Did it die? Did we finally lose Shield?

Noooooooooooooooooooooo, please don't get canceled! I'm going to be fucking CRUSHED. I love these characters so much and it's already such a bummer that they haven't even made cameos in the MCU movies yet. At least let us get our weekly fix on ABC... :(
That stuff has already paid off. Coulson's and Daisy's blood was the focal point of S2. S3 was the escalation of that, exploring the Inhumans and their connection to the Kree and Hydra. S4 referred to Hydra's history with Inhumans during Hydra World, and S5 has had the Kree as major villains as well as Hale wanting to be a part of Hydra's space program.I feel like the callbacks to Season 3 have been almost non-existent for it being the only other time they've spend a good amount of time in space.
I was hoping this season would pay-off that season, which in retrospect has felt like one of the weakest seasons of the show for me, by just making some of the elements matter a bit more than they did.
The Secret Warriors, Hive and Hydra's history worshiping the space Inhuman, even Coulson and Daisy's link to the Kree (Daisy especially by way of the Inhumans) were all somethings I assumed were set up to have more pay off later down the road and yet here we have gotten a great opportunity to do it and we've not really got much.
Does it? YoYo couldn't break whatever gravity field he had and she's their go-to gal for this sort of thing.Just saying, Daisy's plan gave them the means to actually heal Coulson, or actually stop Talbot.

This is a good theory. Fitz is right about saving Coulson, in that case.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?
It's so funny looking back at the first half of season 1, when one of the biggest criticisms was that the characters were boring and sucked.

I got just the remedy
I know that technically all those threads have paid off and had been tied up, I just felt that thematically they could have mattered more. Maybe I'm alone in thinking that, but, at the very least, I always felt that the Inhumans, the Kree, and Hydra have been such important parts of the show from the beginning, that I hoped there would be more explicit links between all 3, especially since I think that with Daisy specifically and her quest since the very beginning to find her identity, purpose, and where she belongs, I thought it makes sense if it all leads to those 3 with some not so great answers for her. Kree are almost like analogue for gods/creators, Inhumans are their creations, and Hydra is a perversion of everything, whether it be humanity or natural laws in their quest for supernatural/cosmic power. I just was expecting it to come together in a more meaningful way.That stuff has already paid off. Coulson's and Daisy's blood was the focal point of S2. S3 was the escalation of that, exploring the Inhumans and their connection to the Kree and Hydra.

So I just noticed something about Clark Gregg's twitter account:
https://twitter.com/clarkgregg
Not sure how long that banner has been up there but do you think it's a reference to what happens at the end of the show or do I need a tinfoil hat?
I think that yes, definitely, you're overdoing it with a spoiler tag there.So I just noticed something about Clark Gregg's twitter account:

It's still crazy that this was the first sighting of the Kree in all the MCU. It looks so much more alien than all Kree portrayals since - this guy looks like he would have been 11-12 feet tall.

Today? No, it's Mother's Day.
If I remember right, 21st Century Fox have the rights of S.W.O.R.D. because it is related to the X-Men.Just thinking out loud since we're still uncertain about the fate of SHIELD. Any chance that if the show comes back that it'll transform because of the info Deke took into maybe something like...

?
Tell us the truth, you know it already.If it's gone, we could know as early as tomorrow. If not, Tuesday at 4pm Eastern should reveal more at ABCs Upfront.
If it gets cancelled it'll be back when their Streaming service goes live. And it will be like a hype train effect.
Fall 2019Is there a date set for Disney's streaming thing? It's not like the cast can just sit around and wait for that to happen someday. They might be tied up with other stuff when the show makes a hypothetical comeback.
Considering the end of IW, makes sense if AoS gets renewed for half a season.
