25 Best Superhero TV Shows Of All Time
13. Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
While Arrow understandably gets all the credit for kicking off this modern superhero renaissance, fans tend to overlook the fact that Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. started within a year of that and brought with it ties to the biggest superhero franchise of all time: The Marvel Cinematic Universe.
An MCU spin-off focusing on Clark Gregg's infectiously lovable Agent Phil Coulson, it has charted the rise and fall of the modern day iteration of S.H.I.E.L.D., focusing on the team of agents as they covertly battled threats such as Hydra - all while serving as a backdrop for events that took place in the movies.
Like Arrow, S.H.I.E.L.D. has enjoyed an incredible run over the past decade, giving Clark Gregg a well-deserved vehicle to shine on a regular basis while also showcasing its entire ensemble, presenting fans with new MCU characters to love and appreciate on the small screen. And as it wraps up that run this year, we can't help but feel proud of all that it accomplished.
