This week Agent Carter ended its second season. I know, I\u2019m
\nsad, too.<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>And now there\u2019s talk that it
\n<\/span>\"\"<\/a>might not return for a season three.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
Wha?!?!<\/span><\/div>\n
Agent Carter brings something to the television audience
\nthat is lacking across the T.V. landscape, and that is strong female characters\u00a0in lead roles.<\/span><\/div>\n
As the main character, you\u2019d expect Peggy Carter to be a
\nworld class badass, and Hayley Atwell delivers in spades. The Steve Rogers vibe\u00a0is strong in her as she endeavors to solve the case with integrity and\u00a0fairness. Everywhere she goes, there is usually a man telling her no, but she\u00a0keeps moving forward with grace and unapologetic intelligence. And the hat. Let\u2019s\u00a0not forget that red hat.<\/span><\/div>\n
When Peggy needed back up after her pigheaded male superiors\u00a0kicked her off the case, it was Rose, the secretary who came to her aid. And\u00a0did a damn fine job of it, too. Girl power!<\/span><\/div>\n
But what I find most intriguing about the show is that it\u2019s
\nalso the woman who are the supreme villains. From Dottie Underwood to Whitney\u00a0Frost, these women drive the action. They are stronger and more ruthless than\u00a0their male counterparts, and it\u2019s glorious. <\/span><\/div>\n
I\u2019ve always been intrigued by the female villain. What
\nmotivates them is at times so much more complex than with males. And it\u2019s that\u00a0difference that makes for an interesting story. Now, I\u2019m not saying I wish for\u00a0the women of the world to be inspired for evilness, but I do like how it shows\u00a0how a woman can be more than the moll. You want to take over the world, girl?\u00a0Have at it!<\/span><\/div>\n
And that is why we need Agent Carter. We need a showcase of\u00a0strong, competent, intelligent women who are the driving force of the story.\u00a0Supergirl is making an honest go of it with Kara, her sister Alex, and Cat\u00a0Grant. And although Agents of SHEILD focuses on Coulson and Ward, it\u2019s May,\u00a0Skye\/Daisy, and Bobbi who come in to save the day. Also notice that in both of\u00a0these series, more often than not, it is a woman leading the charge to world\u00a0domination that they are fighting.<\/span><\/div>\n
So I say to the powers that be at ABC, bring back Agent\u00a0Carter! The world needs her!<\/span><\/div>\n
