Disney may own Marvel, but Netflix is clearly boss right now.
ABC is struggling in the Nielsen TV ratings, and the Disney broadcaster’s Marvel shows aren’t quite lighting the world on fire themselves. The comic book company has actually found far greater success recently with the streaming giant, and three more key series will all be dumped there soon.
So that’s the good small-screen news for Marvel. Here’s the bad: “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” just posted a sad 1.0 rating/3 share and only 2.9 million total viewers on Tuesday night — both were new series lows.
To make matters worse, that’s the better of ABC’s two Marvel series.
