Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (season 1) creator credits

Colour me amazed; I had heard that ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was not very good. And yet, this first season turned out to be somewhat... good. Especially when events from Captain America: The Winter Soldier kicked in towards the end of the season. It's certainly a heck of a lot better than dreck like Iron Fist or Inhumans.

My full list of creators credits can be found here. Your corrections and additions are greatly appreciated!
