Breitbart Reports: Data revealed by Variety in March confirmed that, other than the top 20 shows, pretty much no one is watching any of that woke crap on America’s lousy streaming services.
“As series output soared to historic heights in 2022, with nearly 1,000 original titles released on the major [streaming] platforms,” the useless, far-left Variety reported without ever explaining why “viewership on most services was concentrated among fewer than two dozen shows.”
“Data … shows the top 20 most-watched TV seasons” on every streaming service other than Netflix “accounted for the vast majority of original series viewership on almost all of the major U.S.-based [streaming] platforms in 2022.”
None of this surprises normal people, but it is nice to see what we all knew to be true confirmed.
“The drop-off between the top performing shows and the remainder is, if anything, even more striking,” the report continued.
Get a load of this…
Disney+ “released 50 original series in 2022 (not counting kids’ content),” and the ten most popular “seasons captured nearly 80% of original series viewing time; the next 10, just over 16%.”
Disney seasons that were not in the top 20 “accounted for only about 5% of viewing time.” Other than Peacock’s three percent, that is the worst of all the major streamers.
The following is by far the most important revelation… The all-important rewatchable factor:
This data also indicates that most streaming originals do not have the rewatch value offered by many older series. Whereas beloved library shows such as “Grey’s Anatomy” reliably chart among the most-watched titles on streaming week after week, year after year, new originals are hard-pressed to keep viewers coming back.
Looking again at Disney+, only two of the top 10 original seasons in 2022 reappeared among the top 10 the next year: “The Mandalorian” Season 2 and limited series “Andor,” both “Star Wars” properties. (The former actually saw its share of viewing time rise year over year, likely bolstered by the third season’s premiere.)
So even if people are watching the top 20 streaming shows once, almost no one goes back to rewatch them again, and there is only one reason for that: they suck.

Breitbart quotes Vanity Fair as saying: "[The Mandalorian] saw its share of viewing time rise year over year, likely bolstered by the third season's premiere." The third season premiere was woke and drove people away from the show. However, the controversy it created gave free publicity. On the advice of people on X, I watched the first two seasons of The Mandalorian and then quit. With many others doing the same, it caused viewership to rise as the years went on, just not by season. Of course, I was not counted in the stats, because I made sure to watch in such a way that Disney would not make a penny from me.

Thankfully they make it so easy to identify the Woke content so no time is lost. When you see a needless reboot, a race swap, all/mostly women or a cast that looks like the UN Human Rights Council without purpose you can safely just scroll past.
