Marvel's Agents of SHIELD will be ending with Season 7, which is a pretty big deal. After all, this was the first time Marvel Studios had made a show that would (sort of) tie-in to the MCU. While the show wouldn't follow the MCU as much in later seasons, it still developed a big fanbase and many viewers will be sad to see it go.

Speaking with ComicBook.com during SDCC, Marvel TV head Jeph Loeb spoke about ending the series after multiple seasons. It turns out this was a decision made by Marvel themselves and not ABC, which is always good to hear; usually, it's the Network that cancels the shows and not the people behind them. Just ask Daredevil, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage.

Now that Disney+ is a thing, there's a good chance that Marvel will pitch directly to that network instead of appealing to ABC. Granted, they still have shows like The Runaways and the upcoming Ghost Rider series on Hulu, so they aren't against working with other networks (for now).

Agents of SHIELD will begin airing in 2020.
