‘Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD’ gets full season pick up by ABC

ABC is investing in a full first season of Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD, after the first three episodes of the action drama drew impressive ratings.

marvels-agents-of-shield posterThe news takes the season 1 episode count to 22 and gives the channel highest-rated drama debut in nearly four years.

SHIELD opened to over 12 million viewers on Sept. 24 (the Alphabet’s biggest drama debut in four years), and while the program has seen a decline since its premiere, it is still holding strong against juggernaut timeslot competitors “The Voice” on NBC and “NCIS” on CBS.

SHIELD ranks as the night’s top series in key male demos, which is a notable win given the typically femme-skewing viewership of ABC.

Marvel’s Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., which marks Marvel’s first television series, was co-created by The Avengers’ Joss Whedon, along with Jed Whedon & Maurissa Tancharoen, who serve as executive producers along with Jeph Loeb and Jeffrey Bell.

The show is a spinoff from the blockbuster Avengers film and ABC has been rumored to be working with Marvel on a Captain America spinoff surrounding Peggy Carter and her joining the agency. More details here

ABC Studios is co-producing with Marvel.

    In the novel, Abel exemplifies the idealistic libertarian who was among the instigators of a failed uprising against the president of Venezuela.
    This will give the psychotherapist time to assess
    the couple and come to a finish for the plan they will surely like to chase.

    For example, if she asks what you do, rather than saying “Oh, I’m an accountant.

    DURING ABC’s FALL LINEUP-PROMOS, MY FAVORITE FEMALE-ROCKER [Stephanie Lynn Nicks; known as, “Stevie”] SANG THE TITLE-TRACK FOR THE TELEVISION PROMO, “Agents of SHIELD.” ALTHOUGH I HAVE NO INTEREST IN WATCHING THE SHOW, I PLAN TO FIND-OUT IF THE FULL LENGTH OF Stevie’s song CAN BE PURCHASED.
