This is not the Hollywood Ending fans have mind. Marvel’s Agent Carter is in danger of being cancelled by ABC. Executive producer Michele Fazekas told EW the chances for a third season are “bad.” The “Hollywood Ending” season two finale could end up being Agent Carter’s TV series finale.
If there is a third season, Fazekas tells EW that there has been talk of sending Hayley Atwell’s Peggy Carter to London. They might keep her in L.A. though, or even send her back to New York. The cast also includes James D’Arcy as Edwin Jarvis, Enver Gjokaj as Chief Daniel Sousa, Wynn Everett as Whitney Frost, Reggie Austin as Jason Wilkes, and Chad Michael Murray as Chief Jack Thompson.
Here is more on Marvel’s Agent Carter’s chance of a third season, from EW’s interview with EPs Michele Fazekas and Tara Butters:
How do you feel about the show’s chances for a third season?
FAZEKAS: Bad. People have to watch the show. While I would love to see it continue on, it’s a bummer — a bummer for all of us, cast included. Everybody loves the job, everybody loves working together. I would love to see it live on, even if it’s in some other form, digital or whatever. I doubt that there’s a Netflix play for it. We’re not really involved in those decisions anyway. At the end of the day, people have to watch the show.Would you consider a way to wrap up the story somehow?
FAZEKAS: Sure. It’s interesting because that episode feels like — except for the fact that we plugged Thompson — a nice little conclusion, which wasn’t the intent. If they wanted us to do anything, we would do it. We absolutely love it.
[SPOILERS for Marvel’s Agent Carter, “Hollywood Ending” season two, episode 10.]
In the season two finale of Marvel’s Agent Carter Peggy needs Howard Stark (Dominic Cooper) to eliminate Zero Matter. The gang faces a mission from which they might not return. Manfredi (Ken Marino) works with the white hats to free Whitney from the Dark Matter and send it back through the rift, which they are able to close, because of Sousa. Whitney goes insane. Jack is shot in the chest. In one less grim bit of news, Sousa and Peggy smooch.
Do you agree that the second season finale offered a “nice little conclusion” to Marvel’s Agent Carter TV show? Should ABC cancel the series, or renew it for a third season? Let us know, below.
Oh, please renew the show. I binged watched it. Really great season! Would like to see where Peggy Carter and Chief Sousa’s relationship will lead, and of course, what happened to Chief Thompson.
Please renew the show! The cast is excellent, the storylines are amazing, the characters are fleshed out and well-rounded. There’s humor, action, romance, this show has it all!
Please renew!!
Maybe the ratings are bad because so many people are watching it on Hulu or via Amazon Instant video. The entire ratings system is a joke.
Please, please, please renew!!
Could this series have a new life on one of the cable stations where the audience can be much smaller to satisfy the ratings requirement?
This is a great show for the entire family. This is what television needs more of. If they would advertise it as family fare, rather than science fiction/comic book, then ratings would surely rise.
Please renew!
More, please!!! Love Agent Carter and the whole cast but especially Jarvis. Best butler since Jeeves.
Please renew I love this show I always watch it I’ve never missed an episode since the beginning
I love this show!! I love the era!! The clothes are amazing!! The cast works so well together.. Haley Atwell was born to play this part.. She’s beautiful and wears the 40’s clothing amazing .. I could watch this show all day long .. I think maybe the dark matter subject is getting a little old . I would rather see Peg out there solving crime both stateside and internationally .. I’m really upset that it could be cancelled! This is to good to be done!!! Even if Netflix would pick up .. I just don’t want to see something… Read more »
Please renew! My daughter loves this show. We watch together. In th off season, she asked every week when it was coming back. We’d hate to see it go away!
Other than ABC’s Tuesday and Wednesday comedy lineup, I have pretty much stopped watching ABC’s scripted shows. All boring and formulaic. Except for Agent Carter. It’s the only show of its kind that appeals to both me and my not-exactly-addicted-to-ripping-yarns wife. We haven’t missed a single episode and hope it comes back.
I love EVERYTHING about Agent Carter, the look, the feel, the costumes, the story line, the mild humor, it has to continue!
I would love to see it continue showing more of Howard Stark’s inventions helping us to appreciate the heredity and creativity of the future Tony Stark (Iron Man)! The perfect finale would be Howard Stark and Agent Carter giving birth to their baby Tony Stark (Iron Man) …. now that would be the perfect finale to Agent (Peggy) Carter.
Why can’t a third season be the final season?
