Could be worse.

It could be Boxing Day...

I think I did that before but heard nothing - are they supposed to email with details?

Overnights are definitely out now.

Channel 4 Press ‏@C4Press 3m
#AgentsofSHIELD averaged a huge 3.1m/14.2% at 8pm last night - C4's biggest drama launch of the year to date!

Lol what is going on with this thread

My sources tell me that the reason for the delay is that Brucie has asked for a recount

Now where getting somewhere. That's actually a good start for Agents.

Great start it's a difficult show to slot.

Thoroughly deserved for Agents of Shield. Fantastic episode.

Wow terrific start, of course it will fall, but that's a great rating.

That's really good. Could have been even better though if they hadn't stuck it in that slot. Competing with Eastenders and Coronation Street as well as the lack of younger viewers available on a Friday will have hampered it. It could timeshift massive numbers though due to the slot. Must be their biggest rating in that slot for a good few years though I'd have thought and may well have dented the soaps a little.

Fantastic for Agents of Shield, as others have said hard to schedule. Imagine its audience isn't too similar to SCD or the soaps

Really think that's what Arrow would get if it had made onto C4.

The closeness of the US premiere date will help, agree on timeshift comments

Especially considering the poor slot, no question that's a fantastic start for SHIELD.

You can't help but think "what if" of course. Somewhere more suitable might it have done 4m? Maybe nearer 5m?

The sooner it can stabilise now the better for Four. I wonder whether the soaps were hit at all.

Agreed. They need Arrow on terrestrial channel.

Fantastic for AOS.

I have a dream...Sky lose Arrow (not going to happen hence dream) and C4 then schedule on a Tuesday night against various flop zones

8pm - SHIELD
9pm - ARROW

Channel 4 Press adds that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. scored a 27% share of 16-34s in the 20:00 hour, winning the slot in that demo.

Have to assume that knocked EastEnders and Coronation Street a bit. Fantastic rating, and kudos to Channel 4 for taking a huge risk and putting it in a very tough slot.

I'm reminded of an old Kinks song now,

'So lets all drink to the death of a clown
Wont someone help me to break up this crowd'

EE could well be quite low then.

Strictly Come Dancing: 7.8m
* peak: 8.1m

Solid rating. 200k down from last years first live show but still good none the less.

At least one of Gary's fake ratings was correct.

Shame if it is because it was excellent last night. Best episode in ages.

Bang on what I said! Not to bad. Should be well over 8m tonight.

Ken

'Ok' rating, but i thought it would be higher due to the endless promotion and higher rating preview show.

Quite possible Agents of SHIELD had a big +1 figure. Don't forget the C4 Press reported figures include +1, it could well be a 2.4m/0.7m split or something.
