Last week I talked about how Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s ratings dropped in its second episode but it wasn’t anything to worry about. Ratings dropped again on Tuesday, Oct 8th, but the whole night seemed to have crashed a bit.
Ep 1 – 4.7/14 rating/share – 12.12mil viewers
Ep 2 – 3.3/10 ratings/share – 8.66mil viewers
Ep 3 – 2.9/9 ratings/share – 7.87mil viewers
That’s a drop of .4 points, but heavy hitter NCIS only came in with a 2.8/9 rating share. Okay, so AOS only beat them by .1 of a point, but considering just how big of a series NCIS is, I’m sure ABC is calling that a win. AOS was also just shy of being #1 for the night as NBC’s The Voice came in at 3.0/9.
So yeah, context is important when it comes to the ratings, and so far it’s looking good. I’m positive we’ll get a back nine, and it’s looking good for a renewal.
