DVR Numbers and Curious Note (About 'Agents of SHIELD')

I was looking at some data about DVR usage and saw that the premiere of NBC's The Blacklist was the most watched DVR'd show, adding an additional 5.7 million viewers to the live viewed data numbers.

After The Blacklist, we got the premiere of The Big Bang Theory (5.2M), Sleepy Hollow's 2nd ep (~5M), and Elementary (4.9M).

(I'm really starting to enjoy liking "Red" on The Blacklist... and I could NEVER get into any show (like Big Bang Theory) that shoves a laugh track down my throat.  Folks, I know when I want to laugh.  Quit telling me when!)

From all the hype I had heard from ABC, I could have sworn that Agents of SHIELD was cranking out record DVR numbers.  And maybe it was my bad, but I had implied from what I read that it was busting everyone else's ....  numbers.

Instead, I'm seeing it sit fifth on the chart of DVR'd shows.
