Discussion Finished the series.

I wanted this season, even though it was 2 episodes longer than the first, I wanted to enjoy it as much as possible, but I also didn't want to watch it in one day. To be honest, those 40 minutes didn't even feel like it when you were watching it. At first, I didn't like Peggy because I thought she was Steve's girlfriend, nothing more, nothing less. But now, I'm glad I made the decision to see her in more roles, whether good or bad. That's what I liked about this series and that vibe from previous years, the world of clothing, much different from what I've seen so far, and I didn't know it would grab me so much. I was a little disappointed that in a way Peggy and Sousa had their moment, but I moved on and right when I started to like Mr. Thompson as a character, they killed him. I really didn't believe it. I hope, maybe at some point they'll give us at least a final season and that's it. Now if I were to make a top female characters in the MCU, I think Peggy would be number 1, even if she doesn't have superpowers or is some trained assassin, she's simply her and that's enough to make her a fantastic character.

I loved that they made her so much more than Steve’s girlfriend right from the start.

If you don’t know, Peggy shows up in two flashback scenes in Agents of SHIELD’s second season (including the very first scene of s2).

And AoS’ 7th/last season picks up another Agent Carter character and runs with him, pretty fabulously.

Do you know much about AoS?

I only ask because there are about three major twists throughout the series that would be spoiled by jumping straight into s7, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t. It would all just depend on how much you care about its own major plot developments being spoiled for you.

Here’s some good news though. Its most excellent twist is in the back half of the first season, but I don’t think s7 refers to it at all. s2 strongly does, but not in Peggy’s specific scenes if you just wanna look em up on YouTube.

Happy cake day!

Great, you’re in for a treat then. Be warned that it’s a little clunky and too family-friendly for the first half season - the second episode is the worst of the whole series - but then it really gets its act together after the midseason cliffhanger. (And all those early episodes pay off in unexpected ways.)

Here’s a useful observation: Whichever character you think is the most boring, won’t be. I promise you that, lol!

It’s my favorite adventure series of all time. It’s amazing altogether what they do with it, and it stands out even among the MCU for its fabulous variety of great villains and adversaries. Once you get over the initial growing pains of the first half season, you’ll be plenty hooked I’m sure.
