I'd heard this was a possibility a few months back, but does it really look like it's going forward? That would be kind of awesome (I hope).

Given the mess that is Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., I can't blame you for being disappointed in advance. It's a reasonable feeling.

I for one love Agents of SHIELD which is making me deliriously happy about the possibility of Agent Carter.

SHIELD has gotten much, MUCH better tough. As if they'd switched writers.

If this happens, I will be all over it, disappointing or not. I don't even care. I am more than happy to squeeze any possible drops of enjoyment out of things that aren't as good as they should be.

Besides, it might be awesome.

Ooooh, I'd be down for that. But I am a sucker for period TV shows.

Why would it be disappointing?

I'd be super thrilled if this went through and I'd certainly give watching it a go, I rather liked Peggy and if she got an entire show count me in.

Look on the bright side, OP. Even if the first few episodes don't meet your expectations, it's TV, there's time to grow and figure out what works. ABC (because I'm assuming that's where it would end up. That or Netflix with the Daredevil, Iron Fist, Jessica Jones, Heroes for Hire stuff) has proven they're willing to let things grow (despite screaming throngs that need instant gratification) so... here's hoping it all works out.

Eh, I might be one of the few but I'm actually enjoying Agents of Shield quite a bit, and knowing that Agent Carter might one day be a thing makes me very happy. It deserves a chance so I won't write it off before it's even began.

I'm with you.

Me too! The only problem for me will be if Hayley Atwell doesn't want to do it and they have to cast another actress. I'm not sure I'd watch it if that were the case.

Right there with you.

Ew. Really? This show would be terrible. She was literally the least interesting part of that movie. Her only personality was the shallow beautiful love interest. What is it going to be 45 mins of her pouting at the camera while men do all the action? Maybe a few 'Sassy' one liners to show how she's so strong and badass before she goes needs to be rescued or something?

Just ew.

Also, I think a show about stark would have been much better.

Out of curiosity, did you see the Agent Carter short on the IM3 blu-ray?

Because you would fit in great with Peggy's coworkers there.

I don't know what movie you watched, but I'm glad I watched Captain America instead.

You're clearly letting your biases affect your memory of the movie.

I...kind of agree, but kind of don't. I really don't like her character (at all), but I wouldn't say she's shallow, or sits around pouting. She definitely gets shit done. I just don't understand how she's so popular with the fandom. Your line about her "sassy" one liners that are meant to show how badass she is really illustrates the problems I have with her. Like the parts where she punches a trainee for being a sexist dick. Apparently that's what makes her "cool" for a lot of people, but I just saw it as someone abusing their power over someone of lesser rank. They couldn't have come up with a less cliche way to show she belongs in the military, maybe something that doesn't resort to her hitting subordinates? And don't get me started on the part where she fires a bunch of shots at an untested shield that easily could have harmed Steve because she was pissed off and jealous. Yay for girl power, I guess. I'm just glad I'm not the only person in the fandom who doesn't think she's amazing, lol.

Her only personality was the shallow beautiful love interest.

What movie did you watch? Because it certainly wasn't the one everyone else saw.

Can it be worse than Agents of Shield?

I'd love to see a female-led Marvel show/movie, but I really can't stand Peggy. Her shooting at Steve because another girl came onto him to show what a "Strong Female Character" she was was just disgusting.

This! I really hate how that scene tends to get glossed over or ignored by the fandom.

But that's so exciting!
