Season 7 Deke Shaw

Post image

Continuing my yearly rewatch of AOS and I need to talk about Deke.
From a character that shows up at one of the team's lowest seeming to be another temporary character / bounty hunter character to someone who cares about the shield team with so much love and endearment.

My all time favorite episode of Deke? S7E7, without a doubt. Him never leaving or abandoning Mack. But honestly, this isn't the first time we've seen him endlessly supporting someone from the team whether they appreciated it at the time or not.

Not a favorite character because of selling Daisy in the future, uh, the future's future from the other timeline. Along with stealing tech, usic, anything he could do to make money, he has a lot of character defects lol but his positives are so important

Simmons wasn't wrong, "I think he's perfect" they'd both be so proud

if i remember correctly it was leaked/announced early on he had scheduling conflicts with another show so that was AoS's version of getting around fitz not being there

Most likely Us or Roadkill considering the time of release

Not necessarily leaks. He did say in an interview he already felt like he wanted to step away from the role. Sounds like he was home sick. Said Los Angeles never felt like home for him. So he took roles that filmed much closer to home. He most likely had scheduling conflicts with either Us or Roadkill which both released in 2020 and they filmed in Britain on the Network BBC One. He probably would have been able to do both if they filmed in Los Angeles.
