    Glad you guys are podcasting the Agent Carter miniseries! My wife and I are watching it and enjoying it, although she really just wants “Agents of SHIELD” back. As for me, I think “Agent Carter” is fantastic: smart, entertaining, and a pitch-perfect period piece. Lots of fun so far. I especially enjoy the Carter/Jarvis relationship – kind of like a film noir Scully and Mulder, although no crazy alien mythology. Yet. 😉

    I don’t understand, however, why Daniel seems so dismissive of and resistant to acknowledging any depth the show might have to offer, though. Several times he says we shouldn’t go too deep. Now, I am listening to this after the second night has aired; maybe Daniel has changed his mind. I think there’s already been a fair amount of character development, especially with Jarvis. But we even see some depth with Peggy here, in her reaction to her roommates murder and how she doesn’t want to get close to folks. Ben points this theme out a few times, and Daniel still refuses to give the show credit for depth. I don’t get it.

    With respect, Ben, I think you missed the point of the Ant-Man trailer for the uninitiated. I understand your frustration as it, as a Marvel fan who knows the characters and their history. For someone like me, however, whose first instinct is to scoff at a superhero named Ant-Man, this trailer does the job of subverting typical expectations and letting us know we are in for a fast-paced, fun, Guardians-style ride, with maybe some food for thought on the side. I think Michael Douglas’ speech is SUPPOSED to sound typical of the genre – that sets up Paul Rudd’s “huh” response, and his later comment about maybe changing the name. The trailer lets us know this is not going to be yet another “hero finds his destiny” movie — or, rather, maybe it is, but it will get us to that place in an unconventional way.

    Thought the top of the milk truck fight was AWESOME. I don’t know when I’ve ever seen a female action hero doing that. Great stuff, Marvel Studios! Frankly, Agent Carter is just a great character all around. I have enjoyed these three hours of her story more than I enjoyed the whole first 3/4 year of “Agents.” I’ll be sorry when this mini is over.

    Anyway, I really enjoyed the podcast and hope my nits to pick haven’t given a contrary impression. Also, I will be giggling all day at the thought of a Dr Seuss interrogation book! Looking forward to more!

    PS – Ben, I hope your son and his face are doing much better by now!

        Yeah, sorry… I know I went incommunicado for a long time. Long story. 🙂
