Adrianne Palicki, Nick Blood to star in Marvel pilot for ABC.
ABC has ordered a pilot for "Marvel's Most Wanted," starring Adrianne Palicki and Nick Blood.
ABC is apparently stating that this is not a spin-off, but just a series about the duo and their "continuing adventures."

I thought ABC announced that Blood/Palicki show was dead after they picked up Agent Carter.
(spoiler) Jeph Loeb said that Lash from the Inhumans is showing this season on MAoS and that Coulson will be looking to find more Inhumans to recruit. It seems that MAoS is going from being a spy show to being a secret superhero show because it seems like they are really going to Inhumans territory.

Limited series maybe? Perhaps a place holder in the spring schedule once a few shows get canceled or something? That would be strange for the first show's story flow. The only way I could see that working if it was for at most 8 episodes and they swung back to Coulson around May Sweeps.
Tausif-I've read the first two trades. I'll be interested to see how they pull off Lash both with make-up for the look and special effects for his powers.

Anyways, I could also imagine it to be something like a mini-series focusing on their time as a married couple. That's the only way I see this could work, WITH them staying on AoS. I don't like it when a show changes their main cast too much and every season, I think it really wouldn't help AoS :( either way, though, I'll be watching.

With it not being called a spin-off, I guess it's all new territory when you're talking about the MCU. If AoS isn't called an Avengers spin-off, then this doesn't have to be one either. I suspect they also think saying it's not a spin-off will attract more viewers who aren't fans of AoS.

ETA: And if that were the case... it'd be less a spinoff than a side story. And then between S4 and S5, we could get a little Fitzsimmons adventure or something!

Mostly I hope to be completely surprised so I wouldn't presume to know what the writers have planned or question what I have no clue about. But that's me. I like storytellers to tell me the stories they want to tell because it's their story and I get to watch it for free. It's a really good system. I do absolutely nothing and they give me live comic book superheroes!

AoS got a third full season, which under the normal rules means it should be safe for a fourth season. But the normal rules have been changing quite a bit lately. Is syndication still as important as it used to be, here in the age of streaming?
If they take these two characters off the show, they need to replace them with something that will be equally cool and equally popular. I'm not sure how much more of "the good stuff" is going to be available for them to play with, since Marvel is planning infinite movies with a finite A-list of characters.
