2025-02-06 18:59:32 +0000 UTCSometimes seeing someone else feel makes you feel the things too! Thanks for mentioning that, I'll have to look into it too!

2025-02-06 18:59:15 +0000 UTCMan, that's such a bummer. I'll have to look into what else she's done since this show.

2025-02-06 18:58:55 +0000 UTCVery valid to not love this one!
kaiielle
2025-02-06 18:58:43 +0000 UTCIt does. 😭

2025-02-06 18:58:04 +0000 UTCHadn't watched these full episodes in years (watched a TON of reactions though), so there's a bunch of stuff I keep picking up on that I don't remember originally. Perhaps I noticed them but forgot or perhaps I never saw them, but this is cool catching little details. One of them was that Fitz kept calling Bobbie "Bird" on the coms and that's got to be an allusion to her comic book name, "Mockingbird." And yeah, Mack at the end never fails to break me. That music during the spy's goodbye does as much heavy lifting as the acting there.

2025-02-06 13:52:18 +0000 UTCWell I didnt realize how emotional the episode was till I watched it with someone else... Kl tears start... my tears start.... Bobbi's and Macks which I think were truly real tears dang it it felt so real to me too ! Season 3 Started in 2015/2016 around 2017 a show called The Orville started which co stars Adrianne Palicki so maybe it was fate or luck she got to star in another show after AoS as well. I havent watched that show yet but maybe i need to look into it.

2025-02-05 15:05:06 +0000 UTCPoor Adrienne Palicki, she had two big superhero show pilots (this and Wonder Woman) fail to get picked up.

2025-02-05 04:50:32 +0000 UTCIt's a phenomenal title.

2025-02-04 21:25:59 +0000 UTCUgh, not a fan of this episode. Obviously because of what happens in it, but also I 100% agree with you, it's written a bit muddled. Feels both slow and rushed at the same time. One reason ABC reneged on greenlighting Most Wanted after Bobbi and Hunter were already written out of AoS, is that Marvel Studios started being much more protective over how its IP was used. They wanted to shift it all in-house rather than have ABC and Netflix produce it. This was a little under two years before the whole Disney+ machine started rolling.

2025-02-04 21:16:05 +0000 UTCIt looks like many others have already answered your FUCKING WHY question...yeah...this one hurts.

2025-02-04 21:13:06 +0000 UTCWhoever came up with Parting Shot as this weeks episode title needs to be praised & beaten up in equal measures! The writers come up with so many great titles but this one is at the top of the list!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

2025-02-04 20:56:19 +0000 UTCAs others have mentioned Bobbi & Hunter were supposed to get their own spin-off, hence why they were written out. Originally, that was planned to happen at the end of S2 (which is what Bobbi's "I can't do this anymore" line was referencing), but some behind the scenes stuff delayed it until now. As to why the filmed pilot got cancelled - there was a change in leadership at ABC, and the new chair didn't want to proceed with new shows that their predecessor had green lit. They were also the cause of Agent Carter's cancellation

2025-02-04 20:27:57 +0000 UTCSuch a sad episode ending but I still really enjoy it! The score is great during the Spy's Goodbye

2025-02-04 20:07:32 +0000 UTCAnother inhuman this time from Russian. We are truly going everywhere. Fun fact that dark force he creates is also a form of zero matter from Agent Carter. There was going to be a spinoff with Bobbi and Hunter made by ABC called Marvel's Most wanted. They even filmed a pilot but it got cancelled before it could become anything. That is why this seemed so sudden. But this episode ending is a tearjerker. I have yet to see any reactor not feel something at the Mack scene. I understand what you mean about the pacing of this episode.

2025-02-04 19:57:28 +0000 UTCSomething else I noticed is how the team took the news when Coulson told them that Bobbi and Hunter were disavowed. The way Daisy, Fitz, Simmons, and Mack all the took the news is understandable because they’re younger. It’s only natural that they would feel shocked and saddened by their departure. May has been in the agency for quite some time. She handled it the most mature. She immediately understood why they did what they did so much so that she didn’t break down like the others did but still gave BOTH of them a respectful nod. She always knew Bobbi had a fire in her, but it’s only now that Hunter has finally earned her lifelong respect.

2025-02-04 19:21:53 +0000 UTCOh my god that's heartbreaking. 🥲
kaiielle
2025-02-04 19:19:06 +0000 UTCWhy? I’ll answer that for you. Apparently Adrienne Palicki and Nick Blood were gonna star in their own Bobbi & Hunter spinoff called Marvel’s Most Wanted. The pilot was successful but it never even aired and they shelved the show. And by the way, that wasn’t just Mack crying over the spies’ goodbye. That was Henry Simmons saying goodbye to two co-stars he truly befriended off-camera.
