"Reports, Coffee or Lunch": Marvel's Agent Carter 1x07- "Snafu" Review

Agent Carter a favorite from the Captain America movie. Happy to see Dominic Cooper back as Howard Stark, even if only for the "Previously On" bit at the start of the episode.

By the way, a quick historical tidbit: SNAFU is a WWII military slang that meant "Situation Normal, All Fucked Up (or Fouled Up). Which is basically, what happens on this episode.

Russia 1943 - Like I always say history makes everything better and a series set in the 40s made it one of my favorites before I had seen a single episode. At this point, I'm not paying a lot of attention to what their saying. We are in a medical camp in a Russian front line and they have to amputate a young soldier’s leg. And immediately we get a flashback in a flash back and already I'm wondering where Peggy Carter is. She was arrested in the last episode and I don't know who any of these people are.

Patience is not one of my strong suits.

I don't watch the shows live. I record them on my dvr and watch them the next day. I always see the last two minutes of the Flash. This one has the bad guy from Highlander being attacked by a giant gorilla. According to my brother, the gorilla is a famous character from the Flash Comics. I nod and move on to Supernatural.

I became a fan many years ago, after working on TV conventions and actually meeting Jared Padalecki and Jim Beaver in person. I was a personal assistant to both before I watch a single episode. And thank goodness I did. If I had to work with Jared nowadays, I'd be giggling like a heart-struck twelve-year old. But back then, it was just a job. I could go on about my experiences as an old P.A, but this is about the new episode of the tenth season of the show, so on to the review.

It's Tricky...

I was just watching RUN-DMC's video for "It's Tricky". And not the updated version from the nineties, I was watching the original 1986 version in all it's faded, VHS-era fullscreen glory. Ah, the memories.... I'm watching it on my Playstation 4 on an app I installed called Vidzone. It's basically a radical new idea where you can actually watch videos of your favorite music artists, one after the other. If a network like MTV or VH1 caught on that idea, there is no telling how far they'd go with it!

Always Best to Start at the Beginning

And in this case, it's best to start with a new year. It's January 2015. So I guess it's best to start at the first month of the year.

And fill the blog.

With lots of content.
