Agents of *curses and tears hair*

As the official last person on earth watching Agents of SHIELD, I feel it is my duty to let you know that season five continues to be EPIC.

EPIC.

I also need to repeat this regularly to myself because otherwise I don't actually believe it.

I had to pause this week's episode for a few hours when the black jacket came out. Too many feels.

Then I finished it and was like, I think they saved the world by sacrificing Fitz-Simmons, but they've subverted my expectations over and over this season so I'll keep hoping.

I am loving that storyline. Somehow 'The Doctor' is the evil scientist storyline I never knew I always wanted? And I'm not entirely sure why it's working so well for me, but it is, it is.

I recently rewatched F.Z.Z.T. from season one and it was so crazy to realize that was the moment we were doomed. As soon as the writers realized exactly how devastating Fitzsimmons could be, we were consigned to a world of pain with them for the rest of forever.

Oh, I think they'll find a way through it, though I have been conditioned by so much Doctor Who to buy Deke's talk with Simmons hook, line, and sinker. I'm looking forward to the journey back being long and arduous, though.

if the Doctor succeeded, Deke as we know him won't exist in this timeline.

I have a limited tolerance for "Buffy sad, show good". If this show wraps without a HEA for Fitz-Simmons it's going to taint my memories of the great parts. or maybe I'll come up with my headcanon stopping point like I did for BSG. (It was a downer that the Cylons won. Sometimes I like to imagine that Adama figures out how to rescue the colonists, but the tragic end was fitting.)

Yeah, I'm praying for a renewal right now because I cannot imagine the show getting to the kind of place I want it to be in by the end of this season--there's just no way.
