We were admittedly surprised to see Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. granted a full ABC renewal, especially as early Inhumans news suggested the network had interest in newer shows.
In the meantime, Inhumans will premiere Friday at 8:00 P.M., with S.H.I.E.L.D. returning in the same slot after an eight-episode run.
Either way, S.H.I.E.L.D. will get a bit less jostled airing near of its entire fifth season unbroken on Fridays, while ABC reportedly looks at new Marvel series.
That said, they may not have had a choice in renewing S.H.I.E.L.D. for Season 5, according to reports.
