The Marvel Cinematic Universe TV Thread

[Jimmy]

Agent Carter continues to be fantastic. It's probably my favourite piece of escapist television I've watched in ages, and I don't know why I'm surprised by how much I enjoy each week. Plan on jumping back into Agents of Shield at some point, cos I'll need my fun TV fix once this is over.

[Your Mom]

I love Agent Carter. That's the show I want more of. Peggy is the best

[Ruki]

They totally ripped off Kingsman!

Another good episode...can't wait for the finale next w eek.

Spoiler, Ruki!

[Jimmy]

Just caught last week's episode, which was predictably excellent. I cannot wait for the finale this week, as it's quickly become one of my favourite series of the past year.

[Benjamin]

Excellent series. The fallout stuff was just incredible. I sincerely hope there's a season 2.

[tristy]

It's a good show, but with everything Marvel has released since the first Iron Man, I just don't see how it fits into the greater continuity of the MCU and what kind of importance any of the storylines/events are supposed to play. I look at it mainly as a distraction until the real, important show comes back on the air.

Don't get me wrong, it's a good show and all. But I just... don't really see the importance, when A.O.S. and I'm assuming the Netflix series of shows play larger roles in their universe, this is just kinda... there.

[Benjamin]

It doesn't have to play a role, however. Who cares? It was a quality series that had strong characters and a strong story. It only had 8 episodes for this season, and if it is just a self-contained story, then so be it.

[Jimmy]

I feel there's plenty of story left to be told, although I'd also be very happy for it to be a self contained story. With the tease at the end, I'm sure there will be another series, I just hope it manages to better the first! Great stuff, great cast.

[Avenged Probably]

I thought it was awesome and then fact that they dos so much with just 8 episodes is great. Hope there's another series for sure.

Between this, First Avenger and the one shot I think Peggy Carter may be my favourite character in the MCU at the moment.

[tristy]

I don't know if it's been officially said as such, but the general thought is that Dr. Faustus was wearing the Liar ring.

[Benjamin]

Argh, good episode, but I guess I was expecting something monster awesome after the mid-season finale. Still, some parts were pretty cool, though, and the Tripp sendoff at the end was kind of sweet.

Coulson had some amazing lines, though. Spoilers below.

"I count four left. You know what that means."

"Not really."

And

"They'll never take us alive!"

was hilarious.

Also, I guess Tripp is related to Fury, somehow?! And they're teasing Hyrda might be dead?! Yeah, right. And Bobby and Mac might be baddies?! I'm so curious about that!

Okay, maybe it was a pretty good episode

Why do you think Tripp and Fury are related? His grandfather was a Howling Commando, but thats it I believe

[Benjamin]

Fury's father was a Howling Commando as well, right?

[tristy]

I don't think that's been mentioned before. I can't find any reference to it, anyway.

[Benjamin]

Just found an interview where the makers of the first Cap movie said they never included Jack Fury, though I swear there was some kind of connection I've seen before. Perhaps it was in the animated show.

[Lint]

Nick Fury himself started as a Howling Commando, but that doesn't ft into the MCU

[Benjamin]

Yeah, I think I just got the MCU and the animated universe mixed up.

Also, it appears that, when the time comes, Simmons will be on Starks side of the Civil War and pro-registration

Oh snap, I didn't even think of the Civil War implications from this episode.
