Added DiffLines:
* AccidentalDownerEnding: Season 2 ended with supporting character Jack Thompson getting shot and left for dead in his hotel room, the mysterious shooter grabbing a redacted file that Jack would have used to blackmail Peggy. [[note]]The file was about an "M. Carter" who served in World War II and committed treason. While Jack assumed it was about Margaret "Peggy" Carter, according to WordOfGod "M. Carter" actually referred to Peggy's presumed-dead brother, Michael, who would have been revealed in Season 3 to have faked his death and shot Jack to get his file back.[[/note]] While a Season 3 was planned that would have followed up on this plot line, with the writers hinting Jack would have survived, ABC cancelled the series due to ratings, so Jack's fate is left completely unknown.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: This show got hit a lot less than the rest of Marvel Television. Film and television have wildly different production schedules, which made coordination between the Marvel Studios and Marvel Television difficult from the start. Throw in conflicts between the chiefs of Studios, Television, and Marvel as a whole and it all ended up going separate directions. ''Carter'' got hit a lot less by this because of heavy involvement by creators directly involved in the films. Even so, the growing difficulties contributed to the show getting canceled after its second season.
