Before Disney+ and Kevin Feige brought television series into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D" was a fan-favorite network television underdog. Born out of 2012's "The Avengers," the show followed a team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents assembled by a newly not-dead Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg).

The sheer depth of the Marvel references in this week’s Agents of Shield episode, “A Trout in the Milk,” distinguishes it from all others before it, and McU and comic fans are likely ecstatic about everything from the retro blue jumpsuits to the mention of Daniel Whitehall in the epilogue. The Chronicom plot this week increased the stakes considerably and the consequences for the decisions made in the episode had significant impact.
