Marvel Cinematic Universe: Every Upcoming TV Show Ranked By Anticipation

7. Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Returns: March 8th, 2016 Those of us who have stuck by the show since its rocky inception can undoubtedly agree that it just keeps improving, continually one-upping itself ever since the events of The Winter Soldier tore S.H.I.E.L.D. down. It's introduced the Inhumans into the MCU, explored more of HYDRA's efforts in the modern day, is building the Secret Warriors, and has even featured several of its main characters visiting a whole other planet. The currently-on-hiatus third season is bigger and bolder than ever, and the main cast - from Skye/Daisy to Melinda May to Fitz and Simmons to Grant Ward - have long since earned their place in the MCU. The midseason finale's closing moments left the show off with quite an amazing cliffhanger, and it's hard not to be excited how it plays out in the back half of the season. And while it has yet to be renewed for its fourth season, which would likely keep airing as usual later this year, there's little doubt it'll be back again however its third season plays out to continue giving fans their weekly slice of the MCU.
