Daredevil Bombs Again: Fails To Chart Nielsen Ratings

With the first three episodes, Marvel’s Daredevil: Born Again has again failed to make the Nielsen viewership ratings charts.

It was recently learned that the first two episodes, which premiered on the same night, failed to make the Nielsen charts, which Disney+ automatically has turned on your accounts.

Now it’s the same for the third episode, which aired March 11th. Worth pointing out is that Nielsen measures all the episodes available within a given week’s timeframe, so that means the first three episodes aren’t getting much viewership and aren’t being binge-watched.

What are the ratings?

With Netflix’s Temptation Island landing at the bottom of the chart with 464 million minutes, that obviously means Daredevil: Born Again comes under that number as it’s missing from the chart. The first two episodes also failed to hit 465 million minutes.

The poor ratings line up with Disney’s official numbers for the first episodes, as Disney revealed Daredevil: Born Again drew 7.5 million views in its first five days.

Disney previously revealed that Agatha hit 9.3 million views in its first seven days, so it has been suggested that Daredevil‘s viewership is actually worse than Agatha.

What is going on?

What is going on with Marvel on Disney+ is that it’s a similar story as Star Wars on Disney+ — fans are no longer interested.

Both Marvel and Star Wars have been putting out shoddy content after shoddy content to the point fans no longer care.

For Star Wars, the first two seasons of The Mandalorian were good, but things quickly tanked after; season three wasn’t good and except for Andor, all the rest of the shows have been pretty bad. The Acolyte finished killing off Star Wars completely, as no one watched Skeleton Crew, which actually isn’t too bad.

For Marvel, it really never had its “Mandalorian” (similarly, Disney+ has never had its “Sopranos” or “Game of Thrones). While Loki is probably the best, its second season viewership took a nosedive. Kevin Feige made the mistake of launching with WandaVision, which is actually pretty good. However, it could have been better, but due to Feige and Marvel’s woke DEI policies, they cut Doctor Strange simply because he’s white and a male. That also directly impacted Multiverse of Madness (how’d that work out?).

Feige would go on to do the same with Hawkeye, which completely embarrassed Jeremy Renner. Moon Knight didn’t live up to expectations. She-Hulk is a joke. Nobody is interested in Ms. Marvel, yet the character keeps getting shoved down our throats. Secret Invasion, described as a massive bomb, is the understatement of the year. How about Falcon and Winter Soldier? Captain America: Brave New World is another failure.

I first revealed that Daredevil: Born Again was a disaster and getting retooled. However, we see it wasn’t retooled enough. Since they already filmed around six episodes, Feige didn’t want to reshoot completely, which was his mistake. Instead, you can tell where the “retooling” comes from via the low-production additions and edits.

Due to the above failures, Disney how now slashed the budgets of the Marvel shows, which is reflected in the poor quality of Daredevil, Agatha, and Echo.

So coupled with crappy characters (yeah, you Kingpin) and poor quality, it’s simply a recipe for fans to walk. They’re voting with their wallets. They’re voting with their viewership — they’re not interested.
