I'm sure there will be some excuse other than what some may not want to admit - new show on network, hit show on network, full moon, act of God and then, of course, for the next few weeks there will always be the Olympics to blame.
The ratings for S9 - with their bright and shiny new star (that they pimped until the cows came home) and their shiny new, bigger and badder enemy - are a far cry from the 2.0s (3), 2.1s (6), 2.2s (2), 2.3s (1) and 2.4s (3) they got in S8. (In S8 there were 15 of 20 eps (75%) with 2.0 or BETTER, and 1.7 the lowest.)
So far this season there are 6 of 15 eps (40%) with 2.0 or better but nothing above 2.1 and 2 eps with 1.7s and 1 with a 1.5. Season 8 hhhmmmm wonder what was wrong with S8 that they had to "fix" in S9 - seems the "fix" might not have worked . . . or maybe nothing was broken then but it is now . . . . (If you want to look at the first 15 eps of S8 there were 10 of 15 (66.6%) with a 2.0 or better: 2.0 (3), 2.1 (3), 2.2 (2) and 2.4 (2)
I am sure we will also hear - give it time - it's only the 15th episode.
