If you're into thinkin' and drinkin'

Agent Carter One Shot

In my chronology for the Marvel Cinematic Universe this Agent Carter one shot film short was listed as coming after the TV show. It doesn’t make sense that way…but it was supposed to stand on its own originally… at the end of the short Howard Stark makes Peggy the head of SHIELD so we see […]

Agent Carter S2 Tally

I thought Season 1 of Agent Carter was really drinky, but Season 2 was over the top. The combination of more scenes with Howard Stark (and he’s always drinking — yet rarely drunk), so many bar scenes — the Dunbar Hotel which was swimming in drinks, Chadwick’s fundraising event where everyone had a drink in […]

Agent Carter S2E10 – Hollywood Ending

The season wraps up and apparently so does the show with a ton of unresolved leads. I enjoyed the show and was looking forward to seeing more Marvel Easter Eggs. The team is considering ways to beat Whitney Frost, now Madame Masque, to opening another rift. Howard offers this: “How do the most successful scientists […]

Agent Carter S2E9 – A Little Song and...

We’re at the end of the season and the action is ramping up. The betrayals and double crosses are flying and nobody is taking the time to have a few drinks. Not even Manfredi is seen with a drink in this episode Also, the dance number at the beginning of the episode was a bit […]

Agent Carter S2E8 – The Edge of Myste...

This episode is mayhem. We are in hospital rooms with Jarvis hovering over Anna (she was shot in the last episode), people are betraying their friends, zero matter is communing with its disciples…all over the place. One subplot I think is a nice touch is Jarvis’ vendetta against Whitney Frost for nearly killing his beloved […]

Agent Carter S2E7 – Monsters

So we see how this is going. Whitney Frost is attempting to become a crime boss with unmotivated specialists and two bit thugs as her C-suite team. Vernon Masters hates his new job; he only relishes his power over other people in the role, but reporting to a woman clearly rankles him. I love the […]

Agent Carter S2E6 – Life of the Party

Whityney Frost makes her powerplay. Calvin Chadwick won’t be a consideration…nor will half of the Council of Nine. In Peggy’s room she has a decanter of brown spirits. Again, I have to ask if this is normal, normal for her, or something she’s doing now because she had a piece of ribar thrust through her […]

Agent Carter S2E5 – The Atomic Job

Here we finally see Peggy-Daniel-Violet love triangle sub-plot move along a little bit more wherein Violet recognizes how much Daniel really cares for Peggy. One thing I really liked about the development of this conflict is that nobody is a bad guy here. I feel like often somebody is considered a relationship wrecker or a […]

Agent Carter S2E4 – Smoke and Mirrors

As the drama escalates there is a little less time for drinking. And Whitney Frost’s face cracks up. Flashback to Peggy Carter’s engagement party where she and her fiance and brother are all sitting at a table discussing the war. Many people are in the scene drinking so it’s a bar scene. Total number of […]

Agent Carter S2E3 – Better Angels

In this episode we learn the name of the gentlemens’ club that hosts The Council of Nine is the Arena Club and much time is spent there. Due to that fact and the presence of Howard Stark and his standard level of intoxication and how much he parties there is quite a bit of drinking […]
