Re: Marvel's Agent Carter / Season 1 / January 6, 2015

Just watched Avengers again on TV and had a double-take moment during the big battle when Sousa popped up as a NYPD officer.

Can you use those words together in the same sentence,....????

Seriously, go watch yourselves some Fringe. It was IMO a scifi show that went directly to the pleasure center of the brain. When it was still in production it was IMO one of the best shows on TV.

I'm four episodes into season two. It sure is a lot of fun, especially now that they're more heavily into the parallel universe story thread. Sorry for doing this in the Agent Carter thread .

good news is the people doing this have plans for another season,
»tvseriesfinale.com/tv-sh ··· o-35715/
bad news is there may not be enough ratings revenue to justify it.

the episode 8 finale satisfying

And the good news is ABC might not care about the ratings as Marvel might be pushing it.

I actually am not satisfied with this ending. I wanted to see her become the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D. and get the recognition, not have the credit stolen by that douchebag, and just her end up with a swanky new apartment. I also wanted to find out who she married.

Season 2, if there is a season 2.

IF is the operative word there. This was only ever intended to be a filler during the mid-season break of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., so it was done with this lame ending without a second season even being a thought.

IF, and I stress IF there is a season 2, that would be great, but it still doesn't excuse the lackluster ending of this season since it would be an after-the-fact creation.

By the way,

This was actually a hit in the 1930s, and I think the woman singing with Bing is his first wife Dixie Lee. However, Bing and Judy Garland also sang it on Armed Forces Radio during WW2, which would keep the song relevant in Agent Carter's time.

There's a scene in Captain America: The Winter Soldier in which it is revealed that Cap saved over 1,000 men during a rescue mission, one of which was Carter's future husband.

the one thing i learned from this show is it seems very fashionable now in hollywood to bash white able bodied american males. the whole season is about white men creating a problem and further obstructing a solution. it eventually took a cripple, a british national, and a women to fix, all with little support, at great personal risk, and with no real gain or credit in the end.

Mmm, I think the show illustrated that a "cripple" was not really so crippled and in fact was quite a mensch.

As well, the Englishman had great depth of character and underwent personal growth.

And Carter---who after all is the title character---showed the capability of women at a time when they were still under-appreciated (some of which continues today).

It's natural that the jerks would be WASP males, they were after all the power structure at the time.

It was interesting to me to see they showed black NYPD officers, still a somewhat rare thing in the 1940's.

Yep. and you can see the pictures of her kids on the side table by her bed.

It's been said that Steve ends up falling for the nurse who was his neighbor in Cap 2 (who was really a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent there to guard him), and she happens to be the grand-daughter of Peggy.

I read an article a while back about Winter Soldier. They first tried makeup on Hayley Atwell to age Peggy Carter but didn't like the results, so they used CGI.

In the comics it's Sharon Carter, Peggy's niece and they do have a thing going.

if they get another season budgeted, my guess is she marries that gimpy guy.
he'll act as a conduit inside the SSR while she works with Stark and S.H.I.E.L.D.
for all we know he could be a survivor from the battle that 1,000 men Capt saved.

It has to be Sousa then.........just by the way he helps her and especially the way she smiled at him in the last episode when she again rejected his dinner date.

OK, I finished Fringe, and it was fabulous. Can I have my geek card reinstated?

It was good to see the characters from The Wire -- Lance Reddick, of course, but also Andre Royo (the cab driver in the alternate universe), and, for one brief appearance in one episode, Jim True-Frost, who was "Prez" on The Wire. He was the guy who got melded together with his alternate universe self when they sent an entire building over to our side.

Ok, you can have your card back

I think that was one of Leonard Nimoy's better performances. Not to disrespect his role as Spock.
