TV Episode Review - The Team (Agents of SHIELD S3, E17) + Prisioners (Gotham S2, E16)

This time, Malick gets his commupence in Agents of SHIELD and Gordon goes to Blackgate prison in Gotham:


The Team

A group that call themselves the Secret Warriors, unite and free SHIELD from Hydra which results in some deaths and the capture of Malick. But what we learn from Malick may indeed change how we see things in the show. Its a pretty action packed episode that finally gives the villains what they deserve which is always good in a show and its good to see the show managing to work with what Marvel hasn't licensed out now that we're getting the Secret Warriors involved. We may not be having an Inhumans film now, but we still have other great superhero teams out there. 9/10

Prisioners

The episode mostly revolves around Gordon where we see him adjusting to life in Blackgate prison. While on the outside, Bullock goes to the one man who may be able to free Gordon and its a guy we haven't seen since the season 1 finale. While all that is happening, Cobblepot adjusts to life with his father which ultimately ends with a death in the family and a will being changed in favor of him. Its an OK episode which tackles 2 of our main characters who are both adjusting to life in a whole new world to them, but I wouldn't say that its the best one of the series. In a way, it can be seen as downright depressing at times. But hey, there's always next week. 7/10
