Is AoS still worth watching because of the Nuhumans arc?

TBH i gave up on Agents of SHIELD in the first 6 episodes and jumped back in when the Inhumans showed up and stayed for Ghost Rider which was awesome (they actually are better than the netflix shows at handling a supernatural character(s)).

So to me it is worth it because i honestly did not give a **** about Coulson before he got his hand chopped off and became more flawed (granted he could have always been flawed i just didn't care to watch and see).

I think the inhumans gave the show a strong sci-fi element that was to unique to it rather than before where it was oneoffs and tie-ins to the movies. I do think they did screw up by making it their sole focus and they played up the mutant-lite angle without capturing what made the inhuman different to me.

Surrogates are fine but you still gotta capture what makes the character distinct. Having Green Arrow stand in for Batman is fine but you gotta capture what makes the GreenArrow/Superman dynamic interesting and different the Batman/Superman one (for example).

The series starts off as being mediocre, and takes a hard right towards quality at the end of season 1. The Nuhumans plot isn't very good, IMO, although it is elevated slightly by Kyle MacLachlan. It's not enough to bring the series down, and certainly the last LMD plot line was very good, bolstered by excellent performances by the great John Hannah, Mallory Jansen, and an excellent version of Ghost Rider.

BTW, while I don't think much of the Nuhuman storyline, I'm going to take the no doubt very unpopular view is that actually a bigger weakness in the show is Agent Coulson I can't help but find him a character who was effective in his movie appearances, but is less interesting the more you see of him.

Don't you think you maybe misread it? Or just read someone's really unpopular opinion. Cause what everyone says is that the beginning is awful but it gets good later(with the Nuhumans, but that's not the only thing imo). Well, technically it gets better after the Winter Soldier tie-in in season 1, but Season 2 is better in general. If you already enjoyed the episodes that most people thought were meh, than yeah, I'd say is most probably worth watching.

Pretty much this. I think the Inhumans plot ran out of steam in the middle of the third season, but the second season got better when Terrigenesis got thrown in the mix.

Thanks for the advice, I think I'll keep watching it.

On another note, is Agent Carter worth getting into? I don't know if I want to get into it if season two was left with big unresolved plot points.

Season One is worth watching without a doubt.

technically it's just a cliffhanger at the end of season 2 that felt unresolved, everything else was great and resolved. Think of it like toy story 2 where the problems are still around but they decided to deal with it differently.
