Full spoilers for Marvel's Agents of SHIELD through the Season 3 midseason premiere continue below.
Phil Coulson and his agents of SHIELD might be a bit in over their heads. They have to deal with the Inhuman outbreak, Lash is still on the loose, Hydra remains a threat -- and they don't even know the body of Grant Ward has returned to Earth as the mysterious and ancient Inhuman Hive.
And that's just through the midseason premiere of Marvel's Agents of SHIELD: Season 3. IGN was invited to visit the set of the ABC drama recently, and we learned that's just the trouble detailed above is just the tip of the iceberg. After talking to the stars and creators of the show, here are some spoilery teases of what can be expected for the rest of Season 3.
PlayStation Vue Is Launching Across the U.S.
PlayStation Vue is going out across the U.S.
The PlayStation Blog detailed the new "Slim multi-channel plans" for the television streaming and DVR service.
Access Slim will run for $30 a month, and offer more than 55 live cable and sports channels. Core Slim features the same channels, plus "national and regional sports networks" for $35 a month. Finally, Elite Slim adds "movie and entertainment channels" for $45. The total number of stations is more than 100.
Previously, Sony launched PlayStation Vue only in select cities with a different, more expensive set of channel plans. The newly announced Slim options are available only in the new markets, "and will offer all of the same live cable channels as the standard PlayStation Vue plans."
Bates Motel Is Going to Try to Diagnose Norman Bates
Full spoilers for Bates Motel through Season 4's premiere, "A Danger to Himself and Others," continue below.
Though Norma Bates (Vera Farmiga) isn't going to give up the fight to get her son Norman (Freddie Highmore) medical help in Bates Motel: Season 4, that situation is going to get even more complicated in the season's second episode.
"What's great about the season is that we explore mental health and it doesn't sound so cinematic, but really the way that it's been written explores treatment and I think it needed to be addressed at some point," said Nestor Carbonell, who plays Sheriff Romero, during a recent visit to Bates Motel's set. "At some point Norma has to realize, 'OK, I obviously can't let this go on.' So we do explore that in depth and it's beautifully done and that's the world. ... There are definitely shortages and you know the expense and the complexity of it. You can't categorize it into one person in one way, you know it's complex."
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt: Season 2 Trailer
Netflix has released the official trailer for the upcoming Season 2 of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

It looks like this season Kimmy is going to become an elf, meet a boy, and watch Elmo do unspeakable things.
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt has already been renewed for a third season, despite Season 2 still being a month away.
If you haven't seen Season 1 yet, IGN's review says it's "another winner for Netflix's original series catalog."
