Fug the Show: Agent Carter season 2 finale recap

Heather — Mon, 07 Mar 2016 21:00:08 -0800

Last season, I bid adieu to this show in the finale recap, and it came back unexpectedly. So perhaps I will say my goodbyes AGAIN here, in the hopes that me laying it to rest will lead to yet another exhumation. Ergo: FARE THE WELL, Agent Carter, you deliciously satisfying morsel. Even when an episode would lose…

Fug the Show: Agent Carter recap, season 2, episodes 8 and 9

ABC chief Paul Lee got the boot recently, and two of my TV loves were cited as reasons: Galavant, and Agent Carter, short-run shows with critical acclaim but tiny -- albeit loyal -- audiences, which he kept alive against perhaps all business sense. This is a strong indicator that ABC will cut bait on these two gems,…

This aired back-to-back with episode six; if you missed that recap, it ran yesterday, and here it is. Now ONWARD, for the plot is thickening like a stew.

This show is creditable for overcoming its holes with just pure fun. This week was a nice little caper that got all the right wrong people into the same spot, even if some of the whys and hows didn't QUITE add up neatly.

Apologies for my tardiness -- between traveling to Fashion Week, and a couple site snafus, and general disorder, I only just got to see this. But it was worth it because THERE IS AN IMPALING, YOU GUYS.

Fug the Show: Agent Carter recap, season two, episode 4

Plot momentum stalled a bit -- the horcrux is powerful! Sousa has Peggy-flavored love regrets! Trousers remain questionable! -- and the backstory is a tiny bit banal. But whenever I watch this show, I picture Robin Williams' face in Dead Poets Society when he grins, "Not a bad way to spend an evening, eh?" Not bad indeed.

In which we have a ghost, SCIENCE!!, a horcrux, and the world's shortest necktie.

Fug the Show: Agent Carter, season 2 premiere recap

Heather — Thu, 21 Jan 2016 17:00:00 -0800

I just deeply love this show. Peggy Carter is better than a traditional female superhero, to me, because she manages to be smart and tough and kick LOTS of evil ass without any magical powers at all. And I appreciate that she handles any attempts to undermine her with a very confident, "Too bad -- your…

Well Played, Agent Carter Premiere

So, Fug Favorite Agent Carter returns tonight (Tuesday the 19th), and we thought you might want to get a sneak peek at (a) her lipstick, and (b) her sunglasses:

You know what we say about sunglasses. Even Peggy looks hotter in them, and she was already working from a place of intense…

I suspect this is also the series finale, but a girl can hope. There was a lot to enjoy here, particularly a smart and eminently capable heroine. And on one hand, I understand not making it about romance, because there's something appealing about watching Peggy not need or really seek a man. On the other,…
