TV Review: Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. S3E4 Devils You Know

Agents_of_SHIELD_logoHaving reluctantly agreed to share information with Rosalind and the ATCU, Coulson and the team search for the Inhuman who is killing other Inhumans; May feels that Hunter’s mission to take down Ward is getting too personal.

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has a new a new big bad in the form of Lash who is a major focus of this episode. The mysterious Inhuman is hunting other Inhumans, and we don’t quite know exactly why. This episode doesn’t really answer that part at all.

Part of my criticism about when we first saw the character was the fact that he looked ridiculous and created a serious cheesiness factor about the show. This episode has that exact same problem, and adding in some really flat dialogue reading and the episode is a bit of a step back.

The series has been finding good footing though when it comes to Hunter’s pursuit of Grant and this episode sees him and May get really close to achieving the goal of killing Grant. Yes, it’s more SHIELD vs Hydra, but that’s where the story works best, and has in the comics.

And *SPOILER* what the fuck is it with them killing off the black character!? (highlight to find out). No, we don’t see a body, but do you have hope considering the history so far of comic shows in general?

A very uneven episode, continuing a so far very uneven season.

Overall Score: 6.7
