I'm fine with it the way it as is, as Agent Carter's series length and scheduling probably lends itself better to quality storytelling.
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

I think most series would benefit from shorter seasons, less need to pad out storylines.

I'm about half way through Jessica Jones; it's a very compelling story. I didn't realize until the second episode that the Luke from the bar was Luke Cage. Dur. And Tennant is doing great at being really, really creepy. Eeesh. And talk about graphic! Good thing gore and violence doesn't bother me for the most part.

ABC has ordered a pilot for the Bobbi/Lance S.H.I.E.L.D. spinoff.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Meh. I like Bobbi, but want to kick Lance out an airlock.

I love Hunter! But I want him to be snarking along after Phil as they go off the reservation to kick some ass.

I'm with Steph on Lance, but I also think Adrianne Palicki is woefully underused on this cast. Bobbi ought to be a lot more interesting than she is.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Hunter could probably be more interesting in different circumstances. He's just an odd fit with this group.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I like Hunter, but think he works better being the snarky one in a group dynamic than when he's one-on-one with Bobbi.
I'm kind of amused, from a meta standpoint, that this will potentially be the second time Marvel has made use of DC's failures with Wonder Woman. First Joss gets fired off the WW movie and turns around makes Avengers, now Adrianne Palicki gets to head up her own Marvel superhero show after the (reportedly completely horrid) WW TV show never made it out the gate.

The Wonder Woman pilot is quite easy to find online.
