Review: Agents of SHIELD: Season 3: Episode 4: ‘Devils You Know’ (I’ll Forgive, and Forget?)

(SPOILERS AHEAD)

“It’s a means to an end”

How quickly is this season of ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ploughing through some of its storylines? It seems the writers are racing to a finish that (obviously) we can’t see yet, but for what reason? I can easily see the season running out of steam before even hitting its mid-season break. That being said, ‘Devils You Know’ gave us probably the most shocking ending to an ‘AoS’ episode yet. We were presented with a typical scenario of ‘do something or we’ll kill someone you love,’ but the outcome was anything but typical.

Review: Humans, Season 1, Episode 4 (Do Androids Dream Of Drowning?!?)

“Was he human?”

With Episode 4, Humans became must-watch TV. And I don’t say that lightly! Revelations and plot developments came thick and fast, with a most unexpected twist at the episode’s end. If the line between humans and synths was fuzzy before, it’s all but smashed now. Niska appears like a normal human being with the aid of contact lenses. Laura takes interest in a case of synth/human rights violations. The emotion of fear not only runs through our humans, but also our synths as well, apparently. But is it merely a simulation, or a real feeling?!?!?
