    I stream everything and watch it days after it is broadcast. I'm sure our numbers are eventually figured in for viewers, but it won't be the day after the broadcast.

    Unfortunately, I'm well outside of the 18-35 demographic.

    I'm kind of enjoying it, though I am completely unfamiliar with the Marvel Comics background. I like the 1940s ambiance.

    I agree - this week's episode is pretty good. This isn't great tv, but it doesn't need to be - it's good, solid entertainment and the 40's setting, gives it's a chance to be a little different than
    CSI Omaha or whatever else is on now...

    I thought it was a great episode, with Stark's womanizing and "the end justifies the means" character put on display.

    I like how she always manages to push off her menial official tasks to some other person, usually a male.

    Looks like Sousa will be onto her and will likely join her...

    It's getting worse if you ask me. Stupid. I think I'll take it off the record list on the DVR.

    There's only 4 more episodes so it's not exactly a long-term commitment, I'll finish up the season, I find it mildly entertaining.

    I did a marathon catch-up the other night with some friends. We really dug it. And, yes the 40's ambiance is very well done - much like the first Captain America film.

    It should all lead up to the one-shot episode that's on the Iron Man 3 disc - which I haven't seen, but am looking forward to.

    Dr. Pepper What, me worry?

    Now that one-shot was awesome! I think I enjoyed it more than Iron Man 3! The series has been a real let down, still better than Agents of SHIELD, but how could it ever live up to that fun, rollicking, action packed one-shot mini episode!

    The phycho chick in her apartment complex is getting interesting.

    Yep, that bouncing off the walls to take out the assassin was purdy cool. :)

    The appearance of The Howling Commando's had me cheering! The way Marvel has unified, straightened-out, and sometimes retconned their universe is, er, marvelous.

    And, I'll admit - Agents of SHIELD is getting better. Not up to Agent Carter levels, but it's now way less annoying (although the teenage agents and their unprompted confessions and tears are still prominent).

    There are no teenagers on Agents of Shield. The youngest cast member is Chloe Bennet and she's 22. Henstridge and Caesteker are both in their late 20s.

    I will as well...I'm happy to watch it.

    While it doesn't have the mystery of Flash, or the intrigue of Gotham, it has some great acting, funny lines....it's a well-crafted show, imo, and I'm excited to watch them wrap it up. :)

    I think it's a great idea to fill in the 8-week gap necessary for a big show like Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to give them time to shoot more episodes, and rather than give us reruns of an unrelated show, give us eight brand-new shows that sorta/kinda tie in to the same story (or at least the core of the story). I think Agent Carter is uneven, but it has moments.

    I like the show. Are the Brits taking over American TV. Seems like they are every where these days and have learned the "American" accent very well.

    I also like Backstrom, kind of like House as an over-weight detective.

    I have really enjoyed the last few episodes. Hayley Atwell is great in the title role. And she's gorgeous. I hope it returns.

    I think casting agents like the non-regional dialect they speak when they do "American". It doesn't so much sound like someone actually here as it avoids sounding like a southerner, or Californian, or midwesterner, or Bostonian or New Yawker, etc. That's my theory, anyway.
