I know I spend a lot of time saying that these comic shows deserve Emmy recognition, and I stand by that, but amongst all of the incredible performances across all of these shows, I enjoy so much, I feel like Jansen’s character has been the most intriguing and powerful performance on television and unquestionably deserves recognition.

ABeing of immense power, apparently culminating the powers of the Inhumans Hydra captured in the Framework, into a living being birthed by the Darkhold. A perfect android, evolving into what we wanted for James Spader’s Ultron in Age of Ultron, to the ruthless Hydra Matriarch, into a brand new creation. She had been at 100 perfect for every moment she has been on screen. I have to talk about what Mallory Jansen has brought to Agents of SHIELD and her emergence as Aida, ascension to Madame Hydra, and birth into the real world as Ophelia.
