‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ Series Finale: Cast and Producers on Saying Goodbye to One of Marvel’s Wildest Rides
Destaco:
After wrapping this long-running series with these beloved characters, how do you view the show’s legacy?
WHEDON: There’s two parts to that. The show’s legacy, or what people will think of it in time, or after it ends on Wednesday, is separate from the personal feeling we have about it, which is this life we lived. We pitched the show eight years ago to ABC. That journey is a different thing. It’s a feeling that we have about all of the people we worked with. It’s hard for us, at this point, to separate those two. I feel like, at some point, the show is its own creation and it creates its own feelings. We can’t really experience those feelings yet because we are still seeing the moving parts and still thinking about all of our relationships. That’s for me, personally.
TANCHAROEN: I do think that why our audience has stuck with us over these seven seasons is that, at the heart of the show, it’s this group of people who became a family. It’s a team that asserts that the idea of the beauty of the human spirit always prevails. The optimism and the hope of the show was something that was nice to latch onto. It’s part of the wish-fulfillment of the Marvel brand. No matter what they were up against — LMDs, Hydra, Chronicoms, the Framework — they prevail and they stand with dignity with one another and they lift each other up. It’s all about the relationships, for me. When we set out to pitch the show, all three of us made it very clear that we wanted it to reflect the world we live in and what the world continually aspires to be, and that’s one that is full of diversity and celebrates diversity, and where men and women are equal partners in the fight. We’ve been very fortunate to find partners, in ABC, Marvel, Jeph Loeb and Joss [Whedon], who feel as strongly about diversity and representation as we do. That’s been evident in the entire show, in front of the camera, behind the camera, in the stories that we tell, and how we deal with issues and metaphor. For me, it’s a combo platter of the heart of the show and the family, as well as how the family was represented.
BELL: I can’t really add that much. The beauty, for us, was that we made 136 episodes and spent all those years together, and I don’t think that’ll happen again. I’ve been on some other really good shows for a few years, but to go this long and spending this much time with people has been fantastic. We set out to make a show about heroes who mess up, who screw up, who fail, but that get up and go to work every day and try to make the world better. In a world where so many shows have anti-heroes and are really dark, even when our show got dark, it was our people trying to bring light to it. I’m proud of that aspect of the show.
Y esto, que resume lo mismo que me apasiona de las series de TV de género (Bell ascendió a showrunner por primera vez en la 4a temporada de Angel)
BELL: The other thing that helps us is that our show deals in metaphor, so we can talk about people being different in a way that isn’t literal. Daisy is different, and she had these weird powers and had to come to terms that there are other people like her. One of the reasons I love genre stuff is that you can deal with that kind of stuff in not a preachy or literal way, but just have you absorb it. I’ve always loved our ability to do that.

I read to live in other people's lives.
I read about the joys, the world
Dispenses to the fortunate,
And listen for the echoes.
I read to live, to get away from life!
There is a flower which offers nectar at the top,
Delicious nectar at the top and bitter poison underneath.
The butterfly that stays too long and drinks too deep
Is doomed to die.
I read to fly, to skim!
I do not read to swim!

Viendo el doble final 7x12/7x13, del primero comento que es uno de esos episodios habituales de la serie: a toda velocidad, humor, auto consciencia y algo de meta (escribe Jeff Bell ) y mucha emoción. A estas alturas entra ya casi solito.
Como era de esperar tenemosSpoiler:
Edito, visto el final. Escrito por Jed Whedon y dirigido por el hermano de Maurissa, Kevin Tancharoen. No me ha sorprendido nada y lo digo positivamente porque se que esta serie nunca ha ido por los derroteros de su co-creador, sino por los de sus showrunners y/o Marvel y/o cadena y esto incluye que todo es muuuuy satisfactorio para el fan que, aunque lo pase algo mal, siempre acaba recibiendo lo que desea (romper eso fue lo que elevó Buffy y Angel pero compro esta Shield taaaaan satisfactoria).
Resolución a toda velocidadSpoiler:
Da pena pero han sido 7 temporadas, 136 episodios, la mejor serie de Marvel y la única que va a arrastrar un fandom importante provisto de nostalgia y fidelidad. Visos para ser de culto pero aún es pronto.

La noche del último episodio Chloe Bennet se puso nostálgica y subió stories con recuerdos de la serie (bueno, lo hicieron varios de los actores así como Maurissa Tancharoen) y entre ellos encontró la Entertainment Weekly con ella, Joss Whedon y Clark Gregg así como su audición original, la cual trató de recrear con Jeff Ward (que estaba ahí para ver el final con ella):

Elizabeth Henstridge sigue con sus directos y en este casi comentando el piloto de Agents of SHIELD con su pareja y J. August Richards.
-La pareja de Elizabeth, Zach, confirma que el piloto se rodó sobre enero de 2013.
-Elizabeth no ha visto el piloto desde, tal vez, la Comic Con 2013. August comenta que fue el piloto más caro de la historia (pero debe referirse a network porque privadas.. Lo dudo).
-Elizabeth hizo la primera audición en octubre de 2012 son Sarah Finn. Unas dos semanas más tarde ya hizo la audición con Joss Whedon, su hermano, su cuñada, Jeff Bell y no sabe si Jeph Loeb andaba también por ahí. No se podía creer que estuviera en la misma habitación que el primero y creyó que ella había arruinado su audición.
-August dice que cuando leyó que Joss Whedon iba a hacer la serie se dijo a si mismo que iba a estar en la serie. Le preguntó a su agente si había algún papel, le dijo que no, pero el asunto llegó a oídos de Whedon y tras pensarlo le ofreció el papel en una audición exprés. Si he entendido bien dice que por su relación con Whedon pudo saber un poco más sobre su papel/la serie.
-En una escena Whedon tuvo que cambiar de lado a August porque esa mañana una ¿araña? le picó cerca del ojo y lo tenía inflamado.
-Del piloto ella comenta que la contrataron para ¿32 días? (dicen antes que el piloto fue como 1 mes) pero rodó 3. August comenta sobre la presión y las visitas al set (puede imaginar: gente de Marvel, de Disney, de la ABC...)
-En el minuto 35 August comenta sobre la forma de dirigir de Whedon acerca de su personaje. Y en el 38 comenta lo contento que estaba de que Whedon dirigiera el piloto debido a la dificultad y sobre el hecho de que fueran amigos, tuvieran una gran relación previa de trabajo y que confiaba mucho en él... Y que eso le ayudó tanto.
-En el minuto 44 August comenta dos ideas que tuvo -improvisadas, se entiende- Whedon en un mismo día/escena. Sobre esto, y de otras escenas, Elizabeth y August comentan lo complicado que es rodar todo eso y el gente/tiempo que requiere.
-Creo que August dice que su primera escena fue la primera de la serie y fue la de la tienda de juguetes.
-En el min 50 Elizabeth comenta como en el piloto están los mimbres de lo que será la serie durante los 6 años siguientes.
-Ambos comentan como Shield es ya una rareza por haber durado años y él cree que será una de las últimas series en llegar a esos números.

A mí lo que me sabe mal, es que es / ha sido una serie muy buena, pero a la vez con una audiencia paupérrima, muy pobre. Y ha terminado despidiéndose por la puerta pequeña y sin hacer mucho ruido. Es una pena, pero personalmente me pareció un buen final de serie. Pronto una serie de culto, sino al tiempo.
Es la serie de mayor éxito de Marvel TV:
EXCLUSIVE: Agents of SHIELD Is More Popular Than Any Marvel Netflix Show
Parrot Analytics measure how viewers interact with a TV show's brand online, assessing everything from global file-sharing and peer-to-peer traffic to social media activity. As such, they believe they are able to provide the most accurate measure of audience demand in this digital age. They rank Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the top 0.03 percent of in-demand TV shows worldwide, a category Parrot classify as "Amazing." To give a sense of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s popularity, in the US shows with similar demand include Better Call Saul, Criminal Minds, and Vikings; demand for S.H.I.E.L.D. is higher than the likes of The Originals, Supergirl, Arrow, and Fear The Walking Dead.
How Agents of SHIELD Became Marvel's Most Successful TV Show
----
En la segunda década del SXXI fiar la popularidad de una serie, aunque se emita en TV convencional porque nació así en 2013 (siendo ya entonces algo que se veía iba a la baja), sabemos que es un error. Agents of SHIELD ha seguido el mismo patrón que otras series de su creador (aunque no la llevara él, la fórmula es similar), esto es, un público teóricamente algo reducido comparado con los grandes hits pero MUY devoto, fiel y activo. Eso garantiza que en 10 años un panel de Shield en la Comic Con va arrasar mientras que ninguna otra serie de Netflix podrá replicar eso. No hay ese fenómeno fan.
Ya lo decía su creador: no quiero una serie que 1000 personas quieran ver... Quiero una que 100 personas necesiten ver
En cuanto a su final y el impacto: a mi me gustó, creo que ya andaban cerca del colapso así que bien que terminen ya (además las temporadas 6-7 funcionan como epílogos tras el final total que pudo haber sido la 5a), y es cierto que Marvel llevaba un tiempo pasando de su antigua división de TV pero hay que insistir en algo crucial: Shield sobrevivió a TODAS sus contemporáneas, llegando hasta las 7 temporadas y 136 episodios, logrando un hito en fandom entregado y, como decía, es la de mayor éxito de Marvel.
Y sí, pinta a culto, no como Buffy y menos aún Firefly (en este caso porque Firefly es el culto del tipo que no fue un éxito de ninguna manera y hay pocos episodios), pero tiene pinta a que será muy recordada. Viendo los directos de la Henstridge hay fans muy jóvenes.

Elizabeth ha subido la segunda parte de su proceso de audición. Primero vídeo es de la audición en Disney (la 3a del proceso) y la hizo cuando ya sólo quedaban 3 candidatas.
Luego pasa a su prueba con Ian DeCaestecker. Elizabeth alucina porque esa prueba con Ian es una escena del final de la primera temporada y por entonces aún estaban escribiendo y reescribiendo el piloto, y que sabían hacia donde iría la temporada.
