Does Hayley Atwell's New Gig Signal The End For AGENT CARTER?

@SAMURAI36

different strokes for different folks, I like it : )

@SAMURAI36 - You do realise Daredevil is the most watched original series on Netflix, right?

@LMB10 - That's like saying Flash is the most watched series on the CW. Netflix doesn't pull in huge numbers either.

And last I checked, both DD and JJ barely did a little over 4M viewers. Why is that so great?

Especially when DD and JJ are more closely aligned with the MCU, and yet they still aren't pulling the movie viewers in?

@Asmodeus - Well, since Netflix didn't actually refute those numbers, I don't see any reason to doubt them. Especially when you consider the amount of Subscribers Netflix actually has. There are more subs to HBO than there are to Netflix. And HBO's top show, which is Game of Thrones, barely pulls in 5M viewers.

So if you think Marvel Netflix is breaking any sort of TV records, then it's not my head that needs to be pulled for the sand.

@SAMURAI36 - I think you are forgetting the international television market that their Marvel shows benefit from that most of their other shows don't.

@Dallas Avenger -

I have no idea what this means. What "international TV market"?

@Asmodeus - I don't know why you engage with me either, especially since that's not what refutation actually means.

Refuting something isn't merely saying "no, they are wrong".

1: to prove wrong by argument or evidence : show to be false or erroneous


I challenge you to quote within that article, where the Netflix people actually proved with DATA, that NBC's claims were wrong. I already know you won't be able to do it, and so do you.

@Asmodeus - None of the Marvel TV stuff pulls in good ratings for ABC. Shows with AoShit's ratings have been on the chopping block before.

And now they wanna bring in even more non-descript shows with more Z-Listers, that no one will give .0001% of a f&ck about???

@Asmodeus - Of course I'm biased, but that doesn't make me wrong by default. As opposed to you, who is.... Not biased? But are making all sorts of erroneous statements.

Such as:

AoShit's Season 1 started out at a high, but then continued to tank as the season came to an end. This is easily researchable, and if you need me to, I can post links.

Then S2 started, and the numbers continued to tank even more. That's when the discussion of whether the show was on the chopping block or not started.

That's also when Clark Gregg started sniping at the "fans", calling them "losers and haters", because they stopped watching the show because it didn't have any major characters on it.

With S3, it's the lowest of any ABC show currently on, with the exception of Carter.

And again, there are shows that have been better produced, with much higher ratings from ABC, that have been cancelled. Reference "V", and "Flash Forward" as examples.

So now what's your point?

@Asmodeus - All you did was repeat what I'd already said. This shows that you're not really reading what I'm saying. I already talked about how AoShit's numbers were tanking. All you did was confirm that. What was the point of that?



As far as the syndication part goes, sure, that'll likely happen, but not because of the reasons you are implying.

And ONCE AGAIN, this ties directly with what I said in the first place, that the only reason the show sticks around, is because it's produced by the network that airs it.

So once again, what was your point of that?

As far as shows that are doing worse that AoShit:

Those shows are on the chopping block as well. Some have already been cancelled. But you missed the part where I mentioned ABC's agenda behind these shows.

For example, ABC is keeping OUAT on as well, even though it's doing poorly as well. I suspect this is due to WB approaching ABC several years ago, about doing a Fables TV show, and ABC rejected the idea, but then came up with OUAT shortly thereafter, as their own home-grown alternative alternative.

And none of this negates the fact that ABC has cancelled shows with better ratings in the past. You can choose to ignore this fact all you want.
