10 Great TV Shows Starring The How I Met Your Mother Cast
4. Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D - Cobie Smulders
Before How I Met Your Mother even came to an end, Cobie Smulders had already secured herself a prominent role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as SHIELD agent Maria Hill, the loyal right-hand of Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury.
Her appearances in the franchise have been sporadic but welcome, and she had a strong supporting presence in the MCU's black sheep series Agents of SHIELD, a great show often sidelined for the bigger draw of the movies.
With a cast led by original MCU mainstay Clark Gregg, as well as Ming-Na Wen, John Hannah, Chloe Bennett and Smulders, Agents of SHIELD fills in many gaps left by the wider MCU chronology, and works well as a thrilling, world-saving action story in its own right.
It may not entirely feel like a part of the MCU, but it's every bit as compelling as the film's which gave it life, even if it feels oft-forgotten.
