| - "Phineas and Ferb: Mission Marvel" tried to take over the new airwaves on Friday, August 16. 3.760 million viewers found a way to their TV sets for the special, accounting for a 2.2 household rating. Unfortunately, this was the lowest viewership yet among the show's August events: 2010 - "Summer Belongs to You!" (August 6): 3.862 million 2011 - Across the 2nd Dimension (August 5): 7.642 million 2012 - "Where's Perry? (Part Two)" (August 24): 4.293 million On a more positive note, "Mission Marvel" brought Phineas and Ferb its second-highest viewership year to date, finishing just behind Ferb-ruary 1's "My Sweet Ride". For the week, it finished at No. 16 on the Cable Top 25, and was Disney Channel's No. 1 broadcast with 9 percent to spare. Additionally, the Saturday morning encore took No. 4 on the channel, finishing at just under 3 million viewers. The crossover performed especially strongly among target age groups. "Mission Marvel" was TV's No. 1 show on the week among both Kids 2-11 and 6-11. Among the 2-11 set, it drew a 5.7 rating, the show's highest figure this year, to lead No. 2, a rerun of Teen Beach Movie, by 14 percent. The show had a 7.1 rating among Kids 6-11, good for a 5 percent margin. Even in the traditionally weaker Tweens 9-14 bracket, "Mission Marvel" checked in at No. 2 behind a 5.3 rating. Finally, among Adults 18-49, the crossover drew a 0.6 rating. This has been a special presentation of the blog that breaks down the numbers of our favorite show: The Numbers Game!
