Sci-Fi This Week: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Returns With Secret Warriors
Find out what’s airing in science fiction and fantasy
The agents of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement, and Logistics Division — let’s just call it “S.H.I.E.L.D.” for short, shall we? — are back with the mid-season premiere this week!
The show has really upped its game in Season Three, and as we enter the second half of the season look for more of Daisy’s “Secret Warriors” team — including the introduction of Elena Rodriguez (Natalia Cordova-Buckley) as Slingshot, the show’s first speedster.
Also this week: The Legends team pursues a new lead on Vandal Savage that takes them to small-town Oregon in the 1950s, while on Grimm Nick and Monroe uncover a long-hidden treasure in Germany. On The 100 Kane must look for a peaceful resolution to the crisis at hand, and on The Walking Dead Rick must negotiate to save two of his people.
