Now, TV measurement firm Nielsen are claiming to have accurate audience data, their ‘Subscription Video On Demand Content Ratings’ service selling their data on Netflix to rival networks.
The Defenders — which saw Marvel’s four Netflix properties combine — managed 6.1 million viewers during the first week.
Neilson has offered some disparate data on a couple of Netflix originals, House of Cards, The Defenders, and Fuller House drawing the largest audiences, comparable to top-rated TV shows.
Yesterday, some surprise as the streaming service officially revealed which shows are binge-watched the most within 24 hours of being uploaded, The Defenders topping the UK list.
