And they barely promote the show. 7x05 only had 1 sneak peek like a few hours before the episode aired

Are they ok with this show getting a 0.5? Each night I believed is themed to some degree. Sunday is Game Show night, Friday is Fantasy/Sci-fi. They weren't going to move their sitcoms and such during the middle of the week.

Promotion is one of many factors that affect the ratings. Part is natural decline.

If Once sticks around, then we can see how well Agents of Shiled does on this night and that will be a big factor. (Basically, if Once and Agents of Shield do the same, I think they'll probably keep both. If AoS gets 1s in demos while Once slowly hangs on to 0.5s, then I think Once would be more in danger than it is now). But as with anything, it's in ABC's hands.
