So is there anyone else who wants to see these two appear? If the show is set in the aftermath of World War II, then it's obvious that the first Baron Zemo would take over HYDRA and use it for his own purposes to set up the inevitable villain for the next Captain America sequel.
At the same time, Nick Fury Sr. should appear. He's one of the founders of SHIELD after all. There also needs to be some drama about a man in the late 40s who's trying to hide his love for a black woman. Plus, Peggy absolutely needs a superior who may not take her seriously as a woman but when she returns to base is always subtly impressed by her reports.
Also, I'd have the series keep going until the early 80s with each season skipping a decade.
Theoretically, Agent Carter can skip decades from the 40s to the 50s with the first wave of feminism during the civil rights movement, leading to Peggy getting more respect from Nick while Nick's son is born. This is also where 1950s-style Cold War intrigue is in full swing to the point where HYDRA aligns itself with the Soviet Union. This in addition to the Stark Expo debuting as does the Winter Soldier.
Then a 60s series where the moral ambiguity of the Cold War is setting in, SHIELD's dark side gets showcased more often and HYDRA becomes more sympathetic. Oh, and a SHIELD splinter-faction known as Leviathan appears which has duplicated the Super Soldier Serum and allowed it to have anti-aging properties with the intent of creating immortal warriors. The first of these is Black Widow who's a KGB agent recruited into Leviathan. Nick Sr. takes the serum himself. Nick lies to Nick Jr about his day job. A Leviathan operative named Anton Vanko also designs a prototype powered exoskeleton and calls himself the Crimson Dynamo.
Then in the 1970s, Arnim Zola is secretly recruited back into HYDRA and gets his consciousness uploaded into an AI, Nick Jr joins the military and Tony Stark and Helmut Zemo are born. Howard Stark also works with a Soviet Defector from Leviathan named Anton Vanko on the arc reactor after he becomes targeted by Zemo. This is also where Dum Dum Dugan dies.
By the 1980s, everything hits the fan. Nick Jr. learns of his father's identity and is recruited into SHIELD after his father is forced into retirement. A young Donald Pierce works his way up through the ranks of SHIELD. Black Widow defects to the West after learning that Leviathan was compromised by HYDRA. Peggy Carter becomes director of SHIELD. Oh, and Howard Stark and Heinrich Zemo both die. Howard and Maria Stark are assassinated by Bucky Barnes on Zemo's orders which causes Peggy Carter to personally handle Zemo once and for all, killing him in front of his young son who is forcefully interrogated by SHIELD agents before being released back into the world since a small child isn't considered a significant threat. Black Widow is granted a new identity after defecting on the condition that she serve SHIELD. Nick Fury Sr. says a few parting words to his son before disappearing, presumably never to return.
Point being, we need Zemo to be somebody masterminding HYDRA. Arnim Zola needs to be conflicted if he's supposed to last as a character until the 70s, otherwise he's not compelling, nor can he be LEADING HYDRA if he's undercover in SHIELD. Also, Nick Fury Sr. should be this mentor figure who Peggy eventually surpasses and outranks with Nick even conceding that the only reason why he outranks her for most of the series is because he's a man and Peggy should always have been in charge. These two characters are integral. That and Helmut Zemo can't be a major villain until his father has been dead for a good long while.
Also, Nick Fury needs to have his father be present since you can't do a Cold War-era Marvel story without him. Agent Carter needs to be about legacies. It needs to be about how Black Widow and Winter Soldier evolved into who they are today. It needs to be about why Helmut Zemo is so mentally unstable and wants revenge on SHIELD. It needs to be about Peggy Carter, Howard Stark and Nick Fury Sr. paving the way for the new generation. It also needs to establish that Russia has Crimson Dynamo as a title which may also tie into a potential War Machine solo film.
Point being, I can't see how this show can even be greenlit without Nick Fury Sr and Heinrich Zemo. They're so essential to the Marvel Universe as a whole where everything from Secret Avengers to Thunderbolts is somehow tied to the two of them.
