Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. takes final bow with high-octane journey through time

One last mission: Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ended its seven-year run with a two-part finale.

Agent Phil Coulson and his plucky team of superheroes battled an alien race of Chronicoms in a high-octane journey through multiple time periods in the seventh and final season of ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. It has always been a fun show, even when the narrative occasionally went bonkers-honestly, especially then-with compelling characters that kept you coming back each week. The seventh and final season brought a pronounced sense of playfulness to the show's pre-existing strengths, effectively saving its best season for last and tying everything together in a satisfying two-part finale.
