Ah. Well, I do have Captain America - Winter Solider rented via Netflix at the moment. So maybe I'll watch it and see if I can't find episodes 16-22. I read the recaps for the final three - just to get an idea as to what the heck Ward did, and what happened to Fitz.
I can see why they did that - similar to the Marvel comics, where certain plot points are held back until they are revealed in other stories - in order to maintain consistency and prevent spoilers.
It is problematic for tv serials though - because you are asking a lot from an audience with lots and lots of options to choose from. So, it's surprising Marvel AoS was able to hold onto its audience, possibly due to the audience's trust and loyalty in show-runner Joss Whedon and the Marvel franchise.
