That episode, which aired on September 24, 2013, drew a 4.7 with 12.12 million viewers.<br \/>\n==========<\/p>\n<p>Neither ABC&#8217;s network executives nor the show&#8217;s producers were subject to any illusion about the second season &#8220;Agents of SHIELD&#8221; premiere rivaling the ratings delivered by last September&#8217;s series opener.<\/p>\n<p>Odds are good, however, that they were hoping for something better than what they got.<\/p>\n<p>The Marvel drama returned with a mere 3.8 overnight household rating Tuesday. Down by more than 50% from last September&#8217;s series premiere rating, the number even trailed that delivered by ABC comedies &#8220;The Goldbergs&#8221; (6.0) and &#8220;Trophy Wife&#8221; (4.7) when they premiered in the corresponding 9PM hour last fall.<\/p>\n<p>ABC&#8217;s Tuesday evening opened with &#8220;Dancing With the Stars&#8221; (7.0 overnight household rating) in the 8PM hour. Part two of the &#8220;Forever&#8221; premiere aired at 10PM and drew a 4.2 overnight number.<\/p>\n<p>Adults 18-49 and total viewership data will be available shortly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048,437],"tags":[233,238,267,1947],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Ratings: &quot;Agents of SHIELD&quot; Tumbles 55% (Updated)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Update 2:\u00a0 While still very disappointing--and still very far below last year&#039;s series premiere mark--the final broadcast rating for Tuesday&#039;s &quot;Agents of\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/09\/24\/ratings-agents-shield-takes-massive-tumble\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Ratings: &quot;Agents of SHIELD&quot; Tumbles 55% (Updated)\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Update 2:\u00a0 While still very disappointing--and still very far below last year&#039;s series premiere mark--the final broadcast rating for Tuesday&#039;s &quot;Agents of\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/09\/24\/ratings-agents-shield-takes-massive-tumble\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Headline Planet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2014-09-24T13:49:28+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2014-09-24T21:18:59+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/AGENTS-of-Shield-S2.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1000\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"750\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Brian Cantor\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cantorpedia\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@headlineplanet\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/09\/24\/ratings-agents-shield-takes-massive-tumble\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/09\/24\/ratings-agents-shield-takes-massive-tumble\/\",\"name\":\"Ratings: \\\"Agents of SHIELD\\\" Tumbles 55% (Updated)\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2014-09-24T13:49:28+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2014-09-24T21:18:59+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\"},\"description\":\"Update 2:\u00a0 While still very disappointing--and still very far below last year's series premiere mark--the final broadcast rating for Tuesday's \\\"Agents of\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2014\/09\/24\/ratings-agents-shield-takes-massive-tumble\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/\",\"name\":\"Headline Planet\",\"description\":\"Music News &amp; Charts, TV News &amp; Spoilers\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\",\"name\":\"Brian Cantor\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Brian Cantor\"},\"description\":\"Brian Cantor is the editor-in-chief for Headline Planet.
