Happenstance Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Just finished watching the first episode of this and I'm loving it so far. Marvel's connected movie/tv universe is one of my favourite things over the past few years (even with me not entirely liking Agents of Shield) and this looks like it will be a great addition to it.
bryanee Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Will I get any enjoyment out of it if I thought Captain America: The First Avenger was a big pile of poop?
Serebii Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Still waiting for somewhere in the UK to say "Hey, we're airing this". Can't believe Channel 4 haven't jumped on it.
DriftKaiser Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Apparently Channel 4 is not happy with the number of viewers they got from airing the Agents of Shield Season 1 hence they don't even bother to grab the airing rights for Agent Carter.
Mokong Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Just watched the first and second eps, enjoyed it, interested to see where it goes and it'll be good filler while we wait for Agents of SHIELD to return
Rummy Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 First I heard of this! I really enjoyed her as a character(even though I just had to look her up) in Captain America so I'd probably be quite inclined to try and check this out. I was totally underwhelmed with Agents of SHIELD's first episode though, seen it on and off in bits since and kinda wanna pick it up but not sure how much patience I'll have all round. Will give this a go though!
Happenstance Posted February 27, 2015 Author Posted February 27, 2015 So did anyone watch all of this? I just got done watching the finale and thought it was brilliant. I really hope it gets a second season. It would be great to see them start building SHIELD.
Cube Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Yes, I also thought it was great. I'd absolutely love to see the start of SHIELD and how Zola gets himself to work alongside Carter and Stark. Also, they've now explained where the brainwashing in Winter Soldier and Agents of SHIELD comes from.
Mr-Paul Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 I thought it was great. Perfect to fill Agents of SHIELD's midseason break. Would be very sad if we didn't get another season. The mini-series format worked well. It had its flaws - in retrospect they didn't really do as much as they could have with Leviathan, but a second series has a lot of potential to be even better with more on Leviathan, the return of Dottie and the Black Widow program, bringing Zola into the mix and the foundations of SHIELD.
Tales Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 Have this saved on my list. Haven't watch much of the Marvel series, aside from half a Thor movie and the first season of Shield but I'm getting warmed up so I'll watch this soon. Not too fuzzed about seeing everything in order since not everything is on Netflix anyway so I'm okay with that. I assume I missed a ton of reference on Shield but I can't recall it bothering me.
Happenstance Posted May 8, 2015 Author Posted May 8, 2015 Agent Carter has been renewed for a second season!
MindFreak Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 The second season has just started. I thought it was a Netflix series so they would make it available instantly on Netflix, all episodes at once?
Mr-Paul Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Unfortunately Shorty is wrong, it's not AMC and the Better Call Saul deal is out of the ordinary as that's only on Netflix each week over here as they have the exclusive UK rights for the broadcast - and it still isn't on US Netflix. Agent Carter is not a Netflix series, it is on ABC in the US, and on Fox in the UK, where it starts next Thursday night. Watched the first two episodes last night, thought they were great! Feels like it has got a slightly more light-hearted tone than S1.
Shorty Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Ah, I was talking the other day to someone about the situation with Better Call Saul and how and why it differed from Netflix's usual release schedule. When I read MindFreak's post about it not being on all at once, I put 2+2 together and got 5. Removed my post so it doesn't confuse anyone.
