Hunter and Bobbi were supposed to get their own show - Marvel's Most Wanted. They filmed a pilot, but it wasn't picked up by ABC. All signs point to them coming back to AoS for Season 4.

Can't wait to see how they backpedal from the in-show reason the characters had to say goodbye.
That scene killed me. Them coming back will ruin that effect.

At least you can talk. Who are you?
loool, that must have been a real kick in the balls. Will look forward to seeing what silly reasons they come up with to bring them back!
Them and zombie Hydra Ward, of course.

There was an explicit reference to Damage Control. We were supposed to get that show as a 30 minute comedy, but it's likely stalled too.

A copy of the New York Bulletin also showed up in the finale.
As far as I know, they aren't back for season 4. I really loved those characters, though.

Me too
Well, the cast was also huge at that point. They had already reached the point where random regular cast members would be absent without explanation because there were just too many people to juggle. Slimming down the cast made sense... I'm just not sure they picked the right cast members to get the axe.
I think Paul Lee getting the boot really fucked their whole game plan. He was responsible for Agent Carter getting second season, Most Wanted pilot order and the other Marvel shows being considered despite the low rating of AoS and AC.
Why does she deserve any of that?
The show needs to lose all of the Inhuman dead weight. I would love to learn if something went down behind the scenes to cause the Secret Warriors storyline to be a non-starter or if it was just general incompetence. Season 2 was so good that I have to believe that something unexpected happened.

We'll find out soon, but the big rumor is they're going to re-cut the pilot and just make it an episode of AoS.

gossi has also been proven to have some insider access, so I wouldn't dismiss what he says.
S3 felt like it had big budget cuts.
Because she's an awesome (Avenger) character in the comics and Adrianne Palicki is fantastic.

This times 100. In my fantasyland of things that I know will never happen, I dream of a day that Hawkeye will get his own show on Netflix since Renner has said he'd be up for it and that she would join him and then ultimately make it into the movies.

Black Widow movie with Mockingbird and May as her backup. AoS will probably be cancelled by the time that happens.

Hellfire probably joins the team

It's weird to have some huge promo thing about Hellfire, unless they're going to do other marketing based on the other Secret Warriors.

Hold on, friend! I'd love to share with you some swell news about the Windows 8 Metro UI! Wait, where are you going?
Yeah, there's some cool stuff about to go down.
yeah like the last 2 seasons, it really picks up towards the end
I'm finishing up the season now, and currently have 5 episodes left. I just finished "The Team" where Quake goes rogue by the end. So cool. I hope she survives everything, cause she's by far and large my favorite character on the show.
When it comes to the Secret Warriors team, I'm super disappointed by it, especially after all the hype from people in here and fans around the Internet before the show started. It just consist of these four Inhumans; Joey who I have no attachment to at all. Yo-Yo is cool but a little too intense. Wish Alisha were part of the team.
I'm interested in hearing, is this Secret Warriors team what all of you expected to get from this season? Or has it been a let down?

Definitely a let down.

It felt like they had something more ambitious planned but had to water it down due to budget cuts.
And yeah, it's not encouraging at all that they're hyping up Hellfire joining as though it's supposed to be a big deal.

Mostly a let down. They shouldn't have hyped people on Secret Warriors before the season began.
But what were expected from the Secret Warriors in the first place? I haven't read any comics with them.
[edit] I'm now at episode 19, and Hive mentioning "only suits can be made by billionaires, and only the military can make super soldiers" - was that seriously the tie in to Civil War?

The characters they put together could have been ok, just so completely underused.
Secret Warriors should have been SHIELD's strike force, a small team that handles specific operations. Just Quake leading her band and kicking ass with them. They did it for one episode, and it worked, but it took the entire season to get there.
Didn't help that Lincoln was dull as dirt, and that Joey really wasn't much better (but had a lot more charisma).

I was expecting the Secret Warriors to be the thing in Season 3B, but they literally only had 15 minutes of fame, lol. Either Secret Warriors will happen in Season 4 or as a Netflix Spin-off of some sort.
I'm re-watching season 3 on Netflix and the foreshadowing of the Lash-Andrew twist was there in the second episode.

You haven't reached the "tie-in" episode yet, that's episode 20.
They just acknowledge and reference the movie and that's it.
Looking back at the episodes for this season shows how horribly the Secret Warriors arc was handled.
First, the Secret Warriors thing should have run in parallel to the main arc (the main arc being Rescue Simmons -> Squidward -> Hydra -> Final Battle). Secret Warriors should have been Search for Inhumans/Recruitment -> Team learning to work together -> Possible corruption -> Reforming stronger -> Final Battle.
They really should have established this stronger as Quake's team, and almost separate from Coulson's. At the beginning of the season, they had Lincoln and could have brought in Alisha. Then show recruitment of Joey and Elena. Heck, if you want to, add Mack to the team as the lone human (with a Shotgun Axe). Forming the team should have been done by Episode 6. That allows the full team to be shown in action at least once before the mid-season break. After the break, you get to see the team working together again, then the seed of distrust, and the breaking up, only to have them reform just before the final battle.
Instead, we get this meandering crap that doesn't tell a story at all, and does very little to build characters. We really don't get to know any of the Secret Warriors. Alisha is brought in randomly, both times just used as a sacrifice to show how serious a threat is. Then, we get ONE episode showing the Secret Warriors working together, but it comes way too late in the season for it to really mean anything.
Personally, I think the entire Lash story should have been nixed. It gave May a few great moments, but, other than that, it really culminated in a whole lot of nothing.

Yes I saw this. Small tie in but it was alright I think.
By the way, that shield Coulson have thanks to his arm was seriously cool. He really need to use it way more in combat during S4. But they'll probably entirely forget about it. Did Deathlok even turn up this season? They should recruit him for the Secret Warriors.
I just finished the season. Who the heck is the one we see at the end frozen down? Aida? Interesting. I also liked what we saw of Daisy by the end. We seriously need to get out from the Shield headquarters more next season, and it would be interesting seeing her gone rogue. And I really hope they start calling her Quake as well. Also, let Hellfire join the Secret Warriors now that Lincoln is gone. He seem to be a better actor anyway, and thank god we won't get anymore of that Lincoln/Daisy relationship.
I wonder where they'll take us in Season 4. Have they said anything, besides teasing Hellfire? It'll be interesting with a new villain, and I hope they put the Secret Warriors to better use as well.
Overall it was probably weaker than both S1 and S2. I mean, I enjoyed S1 more of what I remember, but I'm still very curious as to where they'll bring us next.

he was Hiveminded, so it shouldn't be a problem
I feel like Coulson's arm, and FitzSimmons expertise are plot devices, that can make anything happen. And now he controls the ZephyrOne remotely by activating it through his arm, and all of a sudden he have a shield (which was cool admittedly), and the duo can make anything work.

They had already made their peace with Andrew being gone, and I don't think anyone was particularly enamored with Lash.

Just saw that Season 4 will premiere on September 20th at 10pm. Gonna have to start shooting real soon and that means cast and guest star announcements soon. Fun!
