I actually liked Agent Carter better this season. I missed Angie too, but I found that the LA setting made the show more colorful, vibrant and joyful. The sets, the costumes, the SINGING AND DANCING - it was all so much fun.
I don't mind that Peggy had a romance storyline. Almost every protagonist gets a love interest; it's de rigeur in western media. What I like about Peggy's story is that Jarvis, her main partner in crime, is not that love interest. The two of them are a delight to watch, and their friendship is a refreshing change from the "will they/won't they" partner trope of shows like Moonlighting. Peggy's choice was refreshing in that both her suitors were good men who treated her with respect. You don't see that very often on TV.
Jarvis was hilarious this season, and I loved watching him and Peggy both roll their eyes at Howard and how ridiculous he is.
