Agent Carter 1.08: Season Finale “Valediction”

By Jake Hinkson

February 25, 2015

On its eighth and final episode of the season, “Valediction,” Agent Carter comes to something of an awkward conclusion. In many respects, the show does a workmanlike job of bringing its first season to a close. It wraps up its main storyline, leaves several interesting ends dangling tantalizingly loose, and drops a big revelation in…

Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) and Jarvis (James D'Arcy). More please!

Agent Carter 1.07: “SNAFU”

By Jake Hinkson

February 18, 2015

The folks behind Agent Carter have been smart about how they parcel out information. Take the character of Dr. Ivchenko (Ralph Brown). We first met him as a prisoner that Peggy (Hayley Atwell) rescued back in Episode 5. He seemed like a harmless old man. Last episode, however, we discovered he was in league with…

In Agent Carter 1.07, "A Sin to Err," Peggy discovers the shocking truth about Leviathan but doesn't realize that her true enemies are even closer than she imagined.

Agent Carter 1.06: “A Sin to Err”

By Jake Hinkson

February 11, 2015

Episode 6 of Agent Carter, “A Sin to Err,” finds Peggy (Haylet Atwell) in full-on super agent mode. Last episode, we saw her reteamed with the Howling Commandos for some overseas adventuring, but this time around she’s back in the states, running around being a badass in what is probably the best installment of the…

Agent Carter 1.05: “The Iron Ceiling”

By Jake Hinkson

February 4, 2015

Let it be noted that Episode 5 of Agent Carter is the moment where the show goes from “promising” to “good.” After setting up various plot points and intrigues over the course of the previous four episodes, the story really achieves liftoff with “The Iron Ceiling.” We open with a flashback to a bizarre school…

Agent Carter 1.04: “The Blitzkrieg Button”

By Jake Hinkson

January 28, 2015

Considering Episode 4 of Agent Carter takes its title from a military maneuver notable for its ferocity and overwhelming power, it’s surprising that the episode itself is the most laid back episode of the series thus far. We begin with everyone continuing their search for Howard Stark. Peggy finds him hiding out in a storage…

Agent Carter: 1.03: “Time and Tide”

By Jake Hinkson

January 14, 2015

By this point, we know that Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) is on the trail of something big. Howard Stark is on the run from the SSR, and while all the other agents are chasing him, Agent Carter is hunting down the mysterious organization behind the theft of all of Stark’s super weapons. (I can’t believe…

Agent Carter: 1.02 “Bridge and Tunnel”

By Jake Hinkson

January 7, 2015

One of the charms of Captain America: The First Avenger was the way Agent Carter (Hayley Atwell) held her cards close to her vest. Quiet and watchful, she seemed to know more about what was going on than anyone else around her. There was something extremely appealing about finding that kind of restrained character in…

Agent Carter 1.01: Series Premiere “Now Is Not The End”

By Jake Hinkson

January 7, 2015

First, a confession: I am Agent Carter’s ideal audience. One, I like women who kick ass. Two, my grandmother was an English lass who endured World War II, met a nice soldier from Texas, married him and moved to the US, so I dig English ladies who kick ass. Three, I’m a lifelong fan of…
