State of the Union Address Pushes Back 'Agent Carter' Season 2 Premiere
There's only one man who can stop "Marvel's Agent Carter" Season 2, prompting the network to push the premiere over to Tuesday, January 19.
"Agent Carter" was originally slated for a January 5 return, but the change to January 19 is presumably so they don't have a big start and then lose momentum when they have to skip a week for the SOTU. This way, ABC can work with inertia and be an object in motion that stays in motion. It's just a two week pushback, but when you've been waiting for new episodes since February 2015, you don't want to wait another day. Thankfully, Season 2 has 10 episodes (up from Season 1's eight) starting with a two-hour premiere from 9 to 11 p.m. on January 19.
Here's ABC's new season synopsis:
"Dedicated to the fight against new Atomic Age threats in the wake of World War II, Peggy must now journey from New York City to Los Angeles for her most dangerous assignment yet. But even as she discovers new friends, a new home - perhaps even a new love - she's about to find out that the bright lights of the post-war Hollywood mask a more sinister threat to everyone she is sworn to protect."
Are you disappointed about the date change or do you think they made the right call to not lose momentum? We'd check Hayey Atwell's Twitter for her response to the date change and excitement for Season 2, but she deleted her social media accounts.
