Just watched the episode again, half a year later and I'm baffled by the negative reviews for it. Sure, season 6 was one of the weaker ones, but don't forget about the budget cuts it had to experience, even worse than season 5 did. Still, the last couple episodes were about the level of the last few seasons finales.
Agents of SHIELD is not just a TV show. It's something that, like life itself, evolves and changes all the time. How the creators manage to make each following season to be so different from another, and yet so amazing at the same time and raising the bar every time is astonishing. This episode mostly was excellent, but the final few minutes of it are THE BEST piece of filmmaking ever made in history of television. The writing, the soundtrack, the effects, everything about those few last scenes is absolutely flawless and reaches even greater heights than anything else before it ever done before. My bow to you, Jed Whedon, Kevin and Maurissa Tancharoen, Bear Mccreary. You've outdone yourselves here. I didn't imagine something as incredible as this is even possible. You guys showed that it is.
Thank you.
