Agent Carter was fun. (No spoilers)

Two hours of Agent Carter was already morning entertaining than Agents of SHIELD, and I see it doubt a much better job connecting the Marvel Cinematic Universe. If you've enjoyed the movie, you'll like this show.

I watched it with my 12 y.o. daughter - she loved it. ETA: she was floored that we have to wait a week for the next episode (we rarely watch regular TV series - mostly Netflix). LOL

The period treatment seemed pretty authentic - great music!

Loved her in the first Captain America, so I'm not surprised I liked the show as well.

And, as well trained in hand to hand as she seems to be, they probably should have given the super soldier formula to her instead of scrawny Steve Rogers.

I thought it was well-done and captured the 1940s. Some of the dialogue was really funny. I will watch it again. (I DVR'd it so I could watch Rachel last night.)

I love Agents of Shield too; but with it's 1940's era costumes, and the comedic slant of the butler (I love him), Agent Carter is quite entertaining in a different sort of way.

With both series, Marvel has cleverly tied them in with the movies, and filled in back stories we've never known. GOOD STUFF.

that they probably should have given the super soldier formula to her rather than scrawny Steve Rogers... she already kicked ass as she was.

Hope to see more of that in future episodes. I'll definitely keep watching.
