‘Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ Picked Up For Full Season!

Briefly: ABC surprised absolutely no-one today when they announced that Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has received a full season order.

Sure, ratings fell substantially after the series premiere’s MASSIVE 20 million viewers, but the show is still more than popular enough to warrant more episodes. According to Deadline, Agents is still ranked the  #1 series in the 2013-14 season among adults 18-49, and boasts solid DVR gains weekly.

The full season order brings the total episode count to 22, which should be more than enough to please fans until a second season is inevitably (probably) announced.

What do you think of the series so far? I’m not much of a fan of the villain-of-the-week formula, so I sure hope that something about S.H.I.E.L.D. changes soon, or I can sure see things getting stale fast. In any case, I’d probably keep watching just to see agent Coulson’s weekly quips. That dude’s wonderful.

It's official. We've just been picked up for the full first season! Thank you to all of our fans! #AgentsofSHIELD
