9. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
What is there to say about Joss Whedon’s hit show? It has got great characters and the idea was solid when it first came out, but now the show has started to drift and lose much of the appeal that it once had. They seem desperate to keep the influx of characters going, even if that means that they will sacrifice what is working on the show. Bobbi and Hunter’s exit from the show was forced and didn’t fix the parts that were not working. The two were initially going to star in their own show, which would have been fine, but it got cancelled before it ever aired, and now fans will be missing two of the best characters from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. for absolutely no reason. Even after the poor showing in season three, we expect the show to get better moving forward. Hunter and Bobbi will inevitably return after that embarrassing situation, which should help, but best of all the writers no longer have the annoying crutch of Grant Ward. Ward was a pretty good villain to introduce the show with, but as early as season two he had worn out his welcome. His appearance in every episode was just an obnoxious red herring as we were more intrigued by Coulson drawing on walls and the killer piece of metal that jumping around. Then, the whole Inhuman plot started and characters like Ward became irrelevant. By season three, it was an absolute joke that they felt a need to keep him around. He’s now gone, as is Hydra (possibly) so maybe we might see something interesting for season four.
