Marvel's 'Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.' Ratings: Midseason Finale Enlists Superhero Help
You'd better sit down, Marvel fans, because things might get ugly in tonight's episode of Disney (NYSE: DIS ) Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
So what should viewers expect? Well, lead actor Clark Gregg (aka "Agent Coulson") was kind enough to provide a nice little hint a few days ago on his Twitter feed:
Disney Marvel's Agents of SHIELD competes with CBS, News Corp
As Gregg notes, Mike Peterson was the superhero subject of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s pilot episode -- you know, the guy who crawled up the side of a burning building with his bare hands, then effortlessly jumped from a top floor window while holding a lifeless victim.
If you're wondering why Coulson and his team need Peterson's help, check out the sneak peek posted by the folks at Marvel just yesterday:
The end goal by Disney''s ABC, of course, is to maintain the show's current ratings momentum going into tonight's midseason finale.
Remember, three weeks ago Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ratings finally saw their first uptick since
Of course, skeptics were quick to claim the jump would be short-lived, especially considering it coincided with a widely publicized crossover with Disney Marvel's big-budget blockbuster, Thor: The Dark World.
I suppose they were confounded, then,
On a more worrisome note, that was still only good enough for S.H.I.E.L.D. to secure second place in the overall ratings that evening, as CBS (NYSE: CBS ) was able to take the top spot during the same hour with its annual rebroadcast of 1964's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. When all was said and done, CBS' perennial holiday classic earned a 3.0 rating with a stunning 11.3 million live viewers.
Keep in mind, however, Disney's ABC ironically managed to achieve the same feat last Monday, using its own annual rebroadcast of 1965's A Charlie Brown Christmas to best News Corp's (NASDAQ: NWS ) futuristic new crime drama, Almost Human -- and I already suggested industry pundits shouldn't have been concerned by that holiday upset given a broader view of Almost Human's compelling numbers.
In this case, I think the same big-picture perspective is required to judge the performance of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which for the ninth week in a row remained the number-one series in its time period with the lucrative men's 18-34 demographic. As a result, and especially given its most recent jump in viewership, Disney and ABC should have no problem continuing to entice advertisers to pay up for airtime in future episodes.
As it stands, I'll be sure to touch base with regard to how tonight's superhero-aided effort pans out. But given its significant tailwinds over the last few weeks, I won't be surprised if Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. continues its ratings uptrend.

Remember, three weeks ago Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ratings finally saw their first uptick since
the series began back in September, earning a solid 2.4 in the key 18-49 demographic as 6.89 million viewers tuned in.
Of course, skeptics were quick to claim the jump would be short-lived, especially considering it coincided with a widely publicized crossover with Disney Marvel's big-budget blockbuster, Thor: The Dark World.
I suppose they were confounded, then,
when Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s live viewership spiked 35% the following week to 9.3 million, earning it a solid 2.6 rating and driving ABC to a season high performance as the most-watched network of the night. In addition, that also marked S.H.I.E.L.D.'s second-largest audience to date, trailing only its mammoth 11.9 million-viewer debut.

figured they didnt make him a permanent part of the cast..
hoping for the best
While they still don't use as much of the Marvel Universe as they could, I've always enjoyed it but there has been a uptick as far as the writing tightening up. They didn't go with the obvious romantic couple or drag out the "Skye is a mole" angle.
agreed
they came back with a vengeance

AoS's effects people must be big Mass Effect fans
Thing is,they can only use Marvel characters that they have the television rights to,so no Avengers cameos(or mentions of Spiderman,XMen and what not)unless they plan on backing up dumptrucks full of cash to RDJ and such's houses expect more name-drops and stock footage of the characters in shadow with their backs to the camera
as well as the occasional samuel l jackson appearance before the end creditsNetflix has the tv rights to Daredevil,Jessica Jones and such so i dont think theyll be on the show any time soon either
Marvel has just revealed that one of their classic comic book characters is not only set to make an appearance to "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.", but that he's actually been a part of the show since the very first episode. J. August Richards' Mike Peterson will, in February 4th's episode, become the cybernetic soldier Deathlok!
Deathlok, Marvel's cyborg assassin, celebrates his 40th anniversary this year. Formerly considered for a big screen film, Deathlok's role on "S.H.I.E.L.D." is officially described as follows:
Transformed into the cybernetic solider against his will, Mike Peterson must struggle to find the man in the machine. With a high-tech eye that allows him to see through walls, super strength and increased speed courtesy of a cybernetic leg, will Deathlok fight alongside the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. or against them?
"We have been waiting all season for this moment where we can reveal that Mike Peterson's story arc is an origin story," said Executive Producer Jeffrey Bell. "We're thrilled to have J. August Richards playing Deathlok and to have our audience enjoy this favorite Marvel character on the show."
"If you would have asked when I was nine-years old what I wanted to be, I would have said a super hero and I'm so excited to be one now as an adult on TV!" added J. August Richards. "It's a dream come true."
Titled "T.R.A.C.K.S.", the February 4th episode is the series' 13th overall. The 15th episode, meanwhile, was previously announced to feature Jaimie Alexander reprising her Thor and Thor: The Dark World role as Lady Sif.
"Sif will come to Earth to track down Lorelei, a villain from Walter Simonson's Thor run," reads an official Tweet update from Marvel's TCA presentation. Elena Satine ("Magic City") will play the Asgardian foe.

OK.
Marvel Recruits Deathlok For 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.'
What, you didn't really think that was all there was to Mike Peterson's story, did you? Did you really think it would end with him being an arbitrary super-soldier, half-exploded and imprisoned for life by Centipede, without any further developments? Some "true believer" you turned out to be!
As it turns out, there's much more to actor J. August Richards' "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." character, first introduced in the pilot episode, and last seen in the nefarious Centipede's custody. We'll see Mike Peterson again on the February 4 episode of the series, reintroduced as a classic character from Marvel Comics lore: Deathlok, a cybernetic soldier boasting a high-tech eye, super-strength and increased speed, among other cybernetic enhancements.
"We have been waiting all season for this moment where we can reveal that Mike Peterson's story arc is an origin story," executive producer Jeffrey Bell said of the reveal, as announced on Marvel.com. "We're thrilled to have J. August Richards playing Deathlok and to have our audience enjoy this favorite Marvel character on the show."
"If you would have asked when I was nine-years old what I wanted to be, I would have said a super hero and I'm so excited to be one now as an adult on TV," Richards said of playing Deathlok. "It's a dream come true."
Perhaps it's a dream come true, but it's almost certainly not the end of the story. Indeed, take a closer look at Bell's comment: this whole time, Peterson's story was "an origin story," building toward the Deathlok reveal. It makes you stop and wonder: Who else on "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." is undergoing an origin story?
Skye is a likely candidate, given recent revelations, as is the mysteriously alive Agent Coulson. Don't think we've forgotten about those Vision theories — and now with Peterson's new role, I'm beginning to wonder if there isn't a similar fate in store for Coulson. Could he become a Deathlok as well, ala "Star Trek: The Next Generation" hero Jean-Luc Picard's Locutus transformation once upon a time? That's my theory for now, and I'm sticking to it!

Last episode was VERY VERY good...
this is exactly the tone and pace they need to consistently present.
