The fake government on ABC’s “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” is going to take a break to let the real government have the spotlight. The Marvel drama will not air on Tuesday, Nov. 8, and it’s actually on a small hiatus.

Nov. 8 is obviously election night. ABC News will be replacing all ABC primetime shows including “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” Season 4. ABC’s comedies — “American Housewife,” “Fresh Off the Boat,” “The Real O’Neals” and “The Middle” — will be pre-empted as well. See the full list of TV shows not airing because of election coverage HERE.

However, the secret agent show will not return on Nov. 15. Instead, a special starring David Blaine will air. “David Blaine: Beyond Magic” will feature the magician impressing some very famous audiences, including Drake, Johnny Depp, Margot Robbie and more. Watch a trailer for the program below:

Unfortunately, Nov. 22 will not bring the show back either. The “Dancing With the Stars” finale will air in the timeslot instead. The Season 23 finale will reveal the newest mirror ball champion.

Tuesday, Nov. 29 is when fans can finally expect “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” Season 4 to return at 10 p.m. EDT on ABC. Audiences will likely be anxious for episode 7. After all, episode 6 left off with a big cliffhanger.

It turns out Eli Morrow (Jose Zuniga) just wanted the Darkhold power for himself. He recreated the experiment and locked himself in the chamber while Ghost Rider (Gabriel Luna), Coulson (Clark Gregg), and Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) were left just outside of the compartment. After a bright flash of light, Eli could suddenly make dark matter form with his hands. However, the bright light also made Robbie, Coulson and Fitz disappear. Viewers will have to hope episode 7 reveals the trio is safe. No synopsis has been released for the installment, so we don’t have any hints about what will happen.
