Marvel's AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. Renewed; AGENT CARTER Gets Series Order
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s numbers have been steady for a while now, while fans have been loving it since the Captain America: The Winter Soldier tie-in. Well, it's got a second season, and it won't be alone as the Hayley Atwell led Agent Carter has also been picked up by ABC!
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. lost a lot of viewers early on, but like Arrow before it, the series soon began to increase in quality. It was a little late by then to regain the viewers already lost, but numbers have been steady and a second season has now been confirmed by ABC. However, another Marvel property will be joining it this Fall as the network has revealed that they're finally bringing Agent Carter to the small screen, with Hayley Atwell attached to star. Below is the official logline for the series, and well, it sounds pretty damned good! What do you guys think?
It’s 1946, and peace has dealt Peggy Carter a serious blow as she finds herself marginalized when the men return home from fighting abroad. Working for the covert SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve), Peggy must balance doing administrative work and going on secret missions for Howard Stark all while trying to navigate life as a single woman in America, in the wake of losing the love of her life – Steve Rogers.
