For some reason, this series is getting a spin-off. Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is a decent show  but  does it deserve a spin off so quickly?

The new series will be set in the modern Marvel cinematic universe, and it’s being developed by S.H.I.E.L.D. executive producer Jeffery Bell and writer Paul Zbyszewski, who has worked on shows such as Lost, The X-Files and Angel. Here’s everything we know about the upcoming series thanks to Entertainment Weekly:

“We don’t know is which characters from the current series will be moving over to the proposed spin-off – so let the speculation being on that. There won’t be an implanted pilot episode this season directly setting up the spin-off, either (like how CW launched The Flash out of Arrow). However, story elements that are still to come on SHIELD this year will be used to lay the groundwork for the potential new series. So by the end of the season – assuming the details for this project haven’t already leaked, which is rather unlikely – the spin-off concept should be clear.”

Hopefully whatever it turns out to be will be a better, more entertaining series. With the direction that S.H.I.E.L.D. is going it will either focus on a elite team of other S.H.I.E.L.D. members, or a show that focuses on Inhumans, that could pave the way for the Inhumans movie.

What are your thoughts on this spin off idea?
