AGENT CARTER Fights For Her Place – LEVEL ELEVENTY-SEVEN 41
Episode 101-102 “Now is Not the End” & “Bridge and Tunnel”
The new show is here! And we talk about it on our old show. Well… established show, rather.
Agent Carter debuts with back-to-back episodes pitting the resourceful Agent Peggy Carter up against chauvinism, irrelevancy, and even more important: the successor to Hydra, something called “Leviathan”.
Recruited by Howard Stark, who’s on the run under suspicion of selling out his country, Peggy has to work within the male-dominated offices of the Strategic Science Reserve to flush out the real threat from an enemy who’s stolen a good number of Stark’s more dangerous projects. With Stark’s trusty butler, Edwin Jarvis, at the ready to help with her mission, Carter gets to work on finding a stolen formula — only to learn that someone has already created a bomb with it.
Analysis, ranting, and digressions abound as we take a look at the first two of eight episodes in the new series.
The panel: Maia Ades, Heather French, Marie Lim, Dan Handley, Tim Harvey, Jason Hunt
