Agent Carter turns out to be an interesting espionage and period series. It serves as a nice prequel to Agents of SHIELD, and if not a better TV series overall, although it's early to tell.
All the references and "easter eggs" in the two part episode premiere are great but this is not what makes the series special, it is the feeling you get watching Agent Carter. The music, the cars, the typical diners, the jazzy clubs, 1946 New york,... All this elements make Agent Carter a stylish piece, relying on Peggy Carter, not only as an action hero but a woman in the 1940s.
If you love Marvel, you're going to have fun with this one. And even if you're a non-marvel fan-boy/girl, you'll be satisfied with the tone of the Series and Peggy Carter kicking some ass.

Agent Carter was such an underrated show that was canceled way too early. Besides the show being underrated, Hayley Atwell (Peggy Carter) is also an underrated actress. She's so beautiful that I think people tend to notice that more and not give her enough credit as an actress. She's both beautiful and talented. The show itself was so well done. Everything from the writing to the acting to the production was great. The attention to detail they put into this show is very impressive. The thing that stood out the most to be was the character development, you really seen these characters grow and you come to care what happened to them. This is a must watch for any Marvel fan or fan of spy thrillers.
I absolutely love this show!! I hope that with Disney+ will decide to revive it. I was hooked from the moment I watched the first episode through the very last episode of season 2. It feels like we were left hanging so please bring back Agent Carter.
Like most of the other reviews have already said...Agent Carter ended way too soon. It's easily one of the most underrated Marvel shows there is. Haley Atwell was absolutely terrific as Agent Carter. This show follows Agent Peggy Carter (from Captain America: The First Avenger) as she tries to stop new threats after the events of that movie and World War II. Carter is a woman who's surrounded by men at work that continue to underestimate her as she outsmarts and out fights the rest of her co-workers to become the best agent on the force. If you're looking for a good spy series that you'll have a blast watching then give this a try.
I love the retro theme and Agent Carter herself is just so appealing. Classy, elegant, yet smart and knows how to kick some butt! They've taken a supporting character from the Captain America films and gave her her own world, and its full of adventure! The only thing I don't get is what is Jarvis' motivation for risking life and limb for Ms Carter. It made sense in season 1 when they were both trying to clear Stark's (Jarvis' boss) name, but in season 2 it just seems weird.
But that weird thing aside, the show is great! It's very different from other Marvel shows or movies.
I also like how they are gradually building depth into the character such as when they showed a bit of her history back when she was engaged to someone. This makes her more 'real' and humanizes her.
