Since Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is doing so well it makes sense that a second Marvel TV show would be suggested. And since people always complain that there aren’t enough women in the Marvel Universe (Seriously? Have you been watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?) it makes sense that this new show would feature a woman hero.

Agent Carter takes place after the first Captain America movie, and features Agent Peggy Carter, who was Captain America’s true love. Since the war is over she now works for Howard Stark and she is involved in the formation of S.H.I.E.L.D. I will give this a try although I have no love for this character and I think it might be a little hokey since it is set in 1946. However, Marvel has not disappointed me yet so I will keep an open mind.

So yay! Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and we’ll see about Agent Carter. I wasn’t kidding about watching Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. if you haven’t seen season 1. You will be glad you did. Happiness squared.

Goofy Tip: Have you seen Captain America: Winter Soldier? Make sure you see it before you see Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Everything ties together and how cool is that?

One of my many goals is to visit every Disney park in the world (and off planet when they get there). I didn’t really care which park I visited first as long as I visited them all. But that has changed. Hong Kong Disneyland is now first on my list. Why? Because that park is getting the first Iron Man attraction. Luckily it is coming in 2016 so I have time to plan my trip, but Hong Kong here I come.

Disneyland currently has Iron Man Tech in Innoventions (I’ll be giving my review of this experience in a future post) but it is not truly its own attraction, it is just part of the futuristic fun. I think an attraction that immerses you in the Marvel universe will be breathtaking. If you would like to get the details of this new attractions click here to see the post at the Disney Parks Blog.

Visiting Hong Kong Disneyland would be amazing for any reason, by adding Iron Man they made it my new Disney goal. Who wants to join me? Happiness squared.

Goofy TV: I plan to talk a lot more about this show, but if you need a weekly Marvel boost I suggest you watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Tuesday’s on ABC. The story line is going places and the characters are really growing. Of course the real reason to watch is Agent Coulson and he rocks. I’m so glad he’s not dead.

I admit I  love action TV shows but along with great action I like a good storyline, characters that I can bond with, and complex bad guys. This show had it all. I was impressed with the quality of the special effects. I thought the dialogue was witty and really brought the characters to life. I won’t spoil anything but the bad guys were so complex I spent a lot of time trying to decide whether a character really was good or bad. How often do you watch a show that makes you think? I loved that I changed my mind about certain characters over and over. It means the show has room to grow.

The best part for me was Agent Coulson. This is an ensemble show so everyone got their part, but this group of agents wouldn’t exist except for Agent Coulson. He has a lot of secrets that I think will come to light in later shows, but he is the glue and his attitude and beliefs glued me to the screen. I liked the moral message of the show and now that I know that Agent Coulson really is the star I’ll be back for more.

Okay, enough of me gushing. If you have not seen this show and want to know what it was  about I suggest reading this great post at thedisneyblog.com. If you love Agent Coulson as much as I do then you will love this interview from Disney Insider. And if you want to watch the show, but missed it last Tuesday than head over to hulu.com. You can see if for free as many times as you want. I recommend watching The Avengers first if you haven’t seen it a thousand times already. (I plead guilty to that.)

Disney does a lot of creative things, but they are not always a hit. I don’t know if the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. will make it in the long run, but I know that they started with a bang and I can’t wait for the next episode. Happiness squared.

Goofy Tip: I’ll be talking about Iron Man Tech at Innoventions on another post, but if you are visiting Disneyland be sure to visit this round building in Tomorrowland. They are giving away free posters that have Iron Man 3 on one side and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on the other. I’ll let you choose which side you display. (Agent Coulson!!!)

In true “change anything you want in the Marvel Universe” style Agent Coulson is not dead and he is going to be in charge of a new group of heroes in a TV show coming to ABC on September 24th. Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has the potential to be awesome or disastrous but I don’t care. I will watch for Agent Coulson and hope that the rest of the cast can make it work.

Have you heard of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Do you think it will be a hit or a miss? If you want to know more about this show check out The Disney Blog for more details.

I have huge doubts, but I also know I’ll be figuring out a way to watch it. This might be hard since I don’t have TV but this is one show I don’t want to miss. Happiness squared.

Goofy Movie: I don’t often talk about Marvel, except for Iron Man who I adore, and before Disney bought Marvel I didn’t pay attention to the franchise at all. But if you are wondering who Agent Coulson is, I recommend you watch Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Thor, and The Avengers. He only has cameos but he steals the show.
