It doesn't disappoint. Go to Full Review Alex McLevy AV Club 09/21/2016

It's unclear how Ghost Rider will factor in to all this, but the bigger bad guy right now is something much more mundane: It's the paranoid regulations and stifling conditions of a new, accountable S.H.I.E.L.D. organization. Go to Full Review Scott Meslow New York Magazine/Vulture 09/21/2016
3/5
While Robbie's tightrope walk between good and evil isn't subtle, it is a hopeful sign that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. might infuse all this grim maturity with some genuine shades of gray. Go to Full Review Danny Hale Flickering Myth 04/06/2020
Well that's it, season 4 is over and, for me, without a doubt ends the strongest season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to date. And with the recent confirmation of a fifth season the thoughts of where this show will be taken is extremely exhilarating. Go to Full Review Charles Dulaney Tell-Tale TV 04/06/2020
4/5
Overall, it's a really solid premiere episode of Agents of SHIELD in its new time slot. "The Ghost" lets a lot of new story arcs begin and shows off the new darker, harder side of the show. Go to Full Review Kaitlyn Booth Bleeding Cool 05/22/2019
8.5/10
Despite a few missteps along the way, they were minor compared to everything else that was going on. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

La evolución de cada personaje se puede notar y a pesar que en esta temporada hubo uno que otro personaje que no me llego a gustar, al final son personajes que se hacen querer. See more Tyler P @RT44544619 12/15/2024 We come back into 5 star territory with season 4, which is a standout with its three connected yet distinct arcs. This was also the first place that the MCU directly decanonized Agents, as originally WandaVision seemed to imply a singular Darkhold that Agatha Hardness has had for centuries. Robbie Reyes co-starring as the titular character of the Ghost Rider arc, Mallory Jansen doing the same as Aida for the LMD arc, and the final Agents of Hydra arc that rounds it all out and revives multiple characters I know I had sorely missed, create a powerful story and a perfect leadup to what many consider the shows best season.
