Original telecast: Feb. 10, 2015 As we reach the final run of the first season (and hopefully not the last) of MARVEL’S AGENT CARTER, “A Sin to Err” did a good job of bringing everything together for the final two episodes.

On ABC’s MARVEL’S AGENT CARTER, in a limited eight-episode run Tuesdays at 9 PM, the title character played by Hayley Atwell has few allies. As a woman working at the covert government agency SSR, or Strategic Scientific Resources in post-war 1946 New York, agent Peggy Carter is underestimated by most of her male colleagues, who have no idea that she spends her out-of-office hours saving the world. Carter has one co-worker solidly in her corner, wounded WWII veteran Daniel Sousa, played by Enver Gjokaj. Gjokaj (first name pronounced En-vair, second name rhymes with “no pie”) previously worked with two of […]Read On »

Original telecast: Feb. 3, 2015 “The Iron Ceiling” was a turning point for Peggy Carter on MARVEL’S AGENT CARTER for a number of reasons. First, Carter (the lovely Hayley Atwell) got to showcase her kick ass skills by killing a slew of nameless Soviet soldiers and leading the SSR and Howling Commandos into a facility to uncover why a typewriter is giving instructions in Russian to […]Read On »

THE CABIN IN THE WOODS opens Friday. Produced by Joss Whedon, directed by Drew Goddard and written by both, the highly intelligent horror movie is about five college students who go to the title location and, in the tradition of horror movies about cabins and woods, have a whole lot of experiences they neither expected nor wanted, although there’s much more to the story. The film got a quick greenlight from MGM and was filmed in 2009 – and then sat in limbo when MGM got into financial troubles. Lionsgate came to the rescue and is releasing CABIN on, appropriately […]Read On »
