I wonder how long they're gonna milk the Captain America association... And yeah, I get that he was a direct part of the main character's story and whatnot, I just feel like being "that guy" for some reason. Maybe I'm a bit bitter Marvel can't share any Avengers with their tv counterparts, in this case it could have worked as a flashback or something.
In all honesty I really want to like this. I'm crazy about MCU and I suffered through Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2 and the first season of AoS because I'm dedicated dammit, but it's like the worst for me when I can't relate to any of the characters. And this is exactly my problem with AC. The inevitable stereotypes and sexism of that time don't help too, that's for sure. And seeing a character that is supposedly breaks the notion of a stereotypical female use her "womanly wiles" or "female problems" to get her way, or running on hills (what sane person even wears those calve-breaking ridiculous things?) is kind of disappointing. That being said, I understand the concept of getting things done by whatever means necessary or more like with the help of your best weapon at hand, I just don't particularly want to see that on screen. Too overly utilised and beaten to death behaviour. It just makes Carter appear as a female agent, not just agent, and there should be no gender in that kind of job. In the circumstances they've put her in the pilot what she did was indeed the best way to handle things, but no one actually had to put her in those particular circumstances in the first place. Okay, this is getting overly long, and it's not like anyone's gonna read it anyway. I'm just annoyed I can't get into another part of a great universe. I'll give this show a second shot though and watch another episode. But either way, I don't think it will lose a lot by not getting me as a fan, so.
Enjoyed this. The retro style is interesting.
Interesting start but the Captain America flashbacks were annoying and unnecessary.
It's like they're like "Remember the thing you like? Please don't leave."
Still, this is basically What If Agents of SHIELD was set in the '40s and that concept alone is enough to keep me hooked.
Não é o tipo de série que cativa, Peggy super feminista adorei, talvez volte a ver, por causa dela, o bom é que não fizeram muitos episódios.

I was skeptical over whether I'd enjoy Agent Carter. But this pilot has delightfully surprised me. I feel that perhaps period-set stories aren't my vibe however, this episode was fun and engaging with good action and a badass female. Peggy, you've solidified your character showing you can hold your own TV show. Let's hope the series continues in this way.
