Someone who's bi can choose to be monogamous in their marriage. It's about as hard to imagine as it is to imagine married heterosexuals who don't cheat on their spouses.
"Agent Carter" season one discussion and spoilers
- Thread starter Turtletrekker
- Start date
You appear to have totally missed the point.
My initial comment was based on the premise that Carter was 1) in love with Angie (who is not a man) and 2) married to a man (who is not Angie.)
While certainly not the only possible scenario by any means, I merely posited that this *could* touch on the necessity for bi and gay people in the 40's & 50's to enter into marriage with a member of the opposite sex, mostly for appearances sake. Often while still in a relationship with a member of the opposite sex. Sometimes even with the consent and support of their spouse.
That's all. I'm not saying Peggy couldn't possibly love Angie *and* later enter into a genuine marriage with a man, just suggestion that the above scenario might be one interesting facet on which they might touch *if* they went down that path.
If by saying 'It could mean her relationship with her husband would be a "sham marriage",' you meant that it's a theoretical possibility, then, yes, it's a theoretically possibility, given only that we know nothing yet about that aspect of the storyline in season two.
Not only do I see no evidence whatsoever that they will explore the scenario you suggest, but also my point is that I believe that it is very unlikely that they will explore it.
What we know so far is that Carter's big crush was Captain America, and despite that lost love, there was no evidence presented in The Winter Soldier that Carter did not love her husband and every suggestion that in fact she did.
Peggy wouldn't need a sham marriage to keep up appearances. As a world class spy, capable of operating independently, pedestrian means of that sort would be totally out of character.
There's no point to miss here, because the scenario you are proposing is, at least as yet, non-existent, and since it hardly fits this show, it really isn't likely.
A new interview with Hayley Atwell.
Not really a surprise, but she confirms Dominic Cooper's return for season 2.

Bendis drafted a conversation similar to this in New Avengers years ago...
"i always had a thing for Madame masque."
"Who's Madame masque?"
"She's like Doctor, but a woman."
"Why would you want to sleep with Doctor Doom?"

I can't provide a link right at the moment, but I also read today that Dominic Cooper was set to return as well.
Interesting. I thought Jarvis' wife would remain unseen forever. 
I remembered hearing that as well. It would make sense. While the idea of strong female villain to match female lead actor, I wouldn't mind if Howard Stark replaces Tony Stark in Madam Masque's backstory.
I thought the same thing, but I'm glad they're not going with that route. Plus, Lotte Verbeek is a great actress. I loved her in Outlander.Interesting. I thought Jarvis' wife would remain unseen forever.
As far as I'm aware, Lyndsy Fonseca just got cast to guest in 2 episodes of a sitcom called "Grandfathered" but that she's still expected back to be in Season 2 of Agent Carter they just haven't finalized the deal yet.

"A sitcom called Grandfathered" vs. "The sitcom called Grandfathered"
No offence intended, it's perhaps interesting that to you maybe that it seems that Grandfathered isn't real like other sitcoms are real.

Ha. Fair point, but considering I still don't know anything about it other than the name... Maybe I was right... or maybe I just can't sentence properly.

Still no mention of Lyndsy Fonseca.
