Having all but missed its tv run I'm now catching up on the series.
In brief it works a lot better on tv. There's a weird lack of urgency, but it's till moderately entertaining. As everyone said after the imax showing, its the cast that mostly keep it ticking over.
Even on tv it still looks like a shockingly small budget. I really hoped it was just the imax screen giving that impression.

Shaving Medusa's head is def a clear sign of under budgeted.
Not saying I think it was a bad idea? So much as that in reality, it would have been more impactful as a season two or three story, after she's well established, and how much she feels her identity is bound to her hair.

Ive got one episode left and Im not sure what they'd do with another series if they got one. The budget issues just seem to huge to get around. And also where do you set it. Back on the Moon or bring the Inhumans to Earth.
On the moon would be a bit small scale and grey, but too much time on Earth runs the risk of repeating the Agents of Shield Inhuman arc which was easily the worst run of the show.
The whole thing should have been done as a movie as planned orignally. One film would have given the MCU (films and TV) an unlimited cast of disposable heroes and villians with no need for back story.
They should just bring back Carter.

i don't know. I think it could do a pretty decent series without being repetitive of AoS. These are basically aliens. Very few of them know anything about Earth. Some are quicker to adapt, like Medusa, but others are pretty taken aback by the wonders around them, like Karnak and Gorgon. On a smaller scale would be the royal family trying to fit in, while addressing inhuman problems on a local level, without seeing the bigger picture. That does run a risk of being repetitive of AoS (but I don't think it would. What made AoS so bland was the politics side and treating them as a substitute for mutants. Plus the inhuman killer). On a larger scale, would see them setting up New Attilan, an inhuman nation, and mirroring Magneto's Genoshia story arc. But that would be too big for TV (budget wise), but not the right kind of story for a movie.
I think this is ultimately the big problem with the inhuman royal family. There's no real way to do them justice. They need an unworkably large budget for a full scale TV series. But you can't really tell any kind of workable and interesting story in a single two-hour movie.

Going by the New Marvel US comics previews - the Fantastic four returning. So could this effect the Inhumans series & the Marvel films?

No one cares or is sadly saying "aw"! Except maybe for the loss of Lockjaw.
