Now, the new chief at ABC is talking about the future of Agents of SHIELD - and Channing Dungey seems optimistic about the show's prospects.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, the chief was asked about the state of Marvel content on the network, and Channing had this to say:
"Look, we are incredibly encouraged. Season 4 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has been creatively the strongest season we've had yet. The episodes just keep getting better and stronger. And that's another one for us that we moved from 9 to 10 and yet even though the HUD levels are softer at 10, the live-same-day has remained the same and that's another one of our shows which regularly goes up triple digits over the seven-day period, anywhere from 100 to 110 percent."
As for the show's future, Channing said she "absolutely" sees more Agents of SHIELD on ABC. We're also really excited about our production with Marvel, ABC Studios, and IMAX, which we are working on for next fall as well.
Here's the official synopsis for Agents of SHIELD's LMD storyline:
On the heels of their encounter with Ghost Rider, their strangest phenomenon yet, the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. suddenly find themselves up against a myriad of new and ongoing threats: The anti-Inhuman Watchdogs are gaining political influence with Senator Nadeer, and uniting behind a mysterious benefactor. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to the team, Aida has kidnapped Agent May and replaced her with a Life Model Decoy. Aida's evil plans for May and the team remain a mystery.
