Do you think we should ever see Fitzsimmons again?
So, if you don't know, Agents Leopold James Fitz and Jemma Anne Simmons were main characters in Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., they were amazing together, the acting was great, the writing was great, the show's best ship, and honestly one of the best couples in all of the MCU, and frankly, live action Marvel. If you haven't seen the show, I highly recommend it, trust me, it's worth your time.
If Marvel Studios ever decides to (do the right thing) and bring back Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. elements and characters, should they bring back Fitzsimmons? Spoilers for S7, but >!they got their happy ending. Both are retired from S.H.I.E.L.D. and raising their daughter, Alya, and are happy for once in their lives.!<So, that happened.
Personally, I would love to see them back, even if it was as a minor cameo, but at the same time, they should be left alone because they've suffered enough.

Agents of Shield struggled for prominence. It was not a hit with critics, and its identity was founded on new characters plus one character that is dead in the MCU. It had extensive secondary ties to the MCU which would make for conflicts and contradictions as the MCU rolled out its own Ghost Rider, for example.
Bringing Daredevil to the MCU is a slam dunk. Most MCU fans don’t even know what AoS is. The two are completely different. It’s cruel to even give AoS fans hope.
> Interest in bringing the show over was not mocked.
I was there, man. Don't tell me I didn't live through my own life experiences.
> It was not a hit with critics
Check reviews after the halfway point of season 1.

There aren't any contradictions yet. And there's also no record of a new MCU Ghost Rider yet, only fan speculation.
> Most MCU fans don’t even know what AoS is.
AoS had more viewers than Daredevil did.

There's a difference between just saying "We shouldn't expect this to happen" and [passive-aggressive "lol"](https://www.reddit.com/r/marvelstudios/comments/1pg71te/do_you_think_we_should_ever_see_fitzsimmons_again/nsp4lth/) or ["what's this obsession with wanting every character to have a show"](https://www.reddit.com/r/marvelstudios/comments/1pg71te/do_you_think_we_should_ever_see_fitzsimmons_again/nswro1s/), to cite a couple examples from this thread alone.

EDIT: u/onepostandbye blocked me for calmly refuting his points.
and considering their history, their showing back up is just asking for the universe to fuck with them yet again
More would just make them seem weirdly important/involved in more than makes logical sense…
Just a suggestion, but maybe the read the actual post instead of only reading the title next time.
But they should never ever EVER consider messing with the happy ending that they had. It would be unforgivable to bring them back just to “Foggy” one of them in 10 minutes because “ooooh shock”. F all the way off with that.
If they do come back, it needs to be in a completely safe environment lmao
Also there's a non-zero chance that most of the FoX-Men are getting killed in the next Avengers.
Can never say impossible though.
Now they can show in cameos on like LMD Coulson's or Daisy's phone or something but a main character story arc? No.
I, and it seems like a loooot of people similar to me never saw *any* of the non Disney+ MCU content. If I'm being totally honest it just seemed sort of non-canon-ish and separate, so with a limited amount of time to spend on this stuff it just never crossed the line into needing to be watched I suppose.
Hell I'm actually worried about the upcoming movies because of how long it's been since I've seen any of the Fox stuff, and how much of the other stuff I've missed. I understood DP3 well enough but who knows.
We'll see though. I won't be upset if they do reference all that stuff, I just hope they exposition it hard enough that I understand it via context haha.
I was watching this and Blacklist around the same time and felt like the shows had the same supporting character syndrome. When a show becomes about their lives and we the audience lose touch with why we tuned in last week. It’s not always bad. But I forgot I was watching a marvel product occasionally with AoS. I would also be reminded the show I was viewing was BL when suddenly Red makes an appearance.
TNG had a decent way of keeping the main cast the focus with emphasis on specific characters throughout the seasons. But not getting sidetreked - see what I did there?
I want a AoS Blacklist crossover where Reddington wants to steal the last known intact Ultron units that was spirited away from Stark Tower by some associates of his… you’ve seen the show.
It is a shame since apparently we are getting multiple teams from multiple movies in Doomstad - a team for AoS would be great.
No I don't want FitzSimmons in MCU
"OMG like, this supporting character was so cute, like, they should get, like, a dedicated series, seven seasons of them being, like, chaotic and cuuuute OMG!"
- Marvel fans
So, I think it's only appropriate that they come back for another adventure. ;)
Just as long as it honors the AoS ending and doesn't, y'know, kill one of them off or something. It's like, Endgame was a solid ending for Steve Rogers, and if we never saw him again after that, it'd make sense. But it'd also make sense to bring him back for another adventure, which is what they're doing in Doomsday. (Obviously we don't know how well Doomsday will honor that ending, but a. I think the point still stands and b. I trust Feige, the Russos, and Chris Evans to do it justice.)
But I'd also like to see these characters in different corners of the MCU. FitzSimmons working with one of Peter Parker's profs, Quake teaming up with Kamala or Shang-chi, Gabriel Luna's Ghost Rider in a Doctor Strange movie. Etc.
