“Marvel’s Agent Carter” has a nice, softly lit look that works for a period piece sourced from a comic book; the year is 1946, after all. The events move along at a steady pace, and the acting is acceptable. Knowledge of the Marvel Universe will help, though. Those without it may not understand the import of certain things.

While the first two episodes don’t contain any serious flaws, they are a bit dull. I find the whole “Captain America” story dull, so that’s not a surprise. On the whole, “Marvel’s Agent Carter” is well-staged and well-made yet uninspiring. I don’t know whether to keep this on or turn it off. …

Well, I kept it on. Overall, “Marvel’s Agent Carter” gets the job done. It’s still a bit lethargic, but it works … for the most part.

Verdict: Good

ABC presents its second action packed series from the creative minds at Marvel in Marvel’s Agent Carter, inspired by the feature films Marvel’s Captain America: The First Avenger and Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier, along with the short Marvel One-Shot: Agent Carter.

Years before Agent Phil Coulson and his S.H.I.E.L.D. team swore to protect those who cannot protect themselves from threats they cannot conceive, there was Agent Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell, Marvel’s Captain America: The First Avenger, Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier) who pledged the same oath but lived in a different time when women weren’t recognized as being as smart or as tough as their male counterparts.

But no one should ever underestimate Peggy.
