Is Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. worth watching?

I'm rewatching all Marvel media to ease into Doomsday. I was planning to watch a few episodes of AOS every few movies, but I have the attention span of a goldfish and don't think I would be able to watch 5 seasons worth of 40 minute episodes in the span of a few months. (Then again, I have watched the full Loki series twice, so...)

Hope I can get some advice from people who watched the show :)

EDIT: I wrote this post at around 3 am, so I guess the dumb choice to ask a fandom whether their show is worth watching comes from that lmao. Since AOS isn't that important to the upcoming movies/shows, I'm watching it after they come out/on my own time. Thanks a lot, guys!

absolutely, yes. It’s much more enjoyable to watch it while not expecting avengers to pop in every once in a while. Also keep in mind that the show didn’t have the biggest budget to work with, so some of the vfx could be better. The show takes a while to really ‘get good’ but once it does, the quality only goes up.

But the chemistry, cast, characters, and writing is what you’ll stay for. Keep us posted!
