It is the series of the moment on Netflix. We only have to go through the list of most popular series to see how Wednesday it is in a luxurious first place in only 2 weeks of life. What exactly does the series have that the public is liking so much? And the most interesting, Can he top Stranger Things?
A very strong debut
During the two weeks that the fiction has been airing on Netflix, it has achieved a total of 752.5 million hours of playback, which is an incredible start if we compare it with the big winners of the red N. To give you an idea, the series stranger things (season 4) achieved in its first 28 days of broadcast a total of 1.353 million total hours of reproduction, and Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story a total of 856 million hours.
Taking into account that Wednesday He still has another 14 days left to continue adding, everything indicates that the series with the stamp of Tim Burton will reach a new record that will be recorded in the list of most popular series in the history of Netflix.
It is undoubtedly an achievement that perhaps few of us saw coming. And it is that despite being supported by a director like Burton, making a new story of the Adams member much more focused on the youthful audience seemed quite risky and at least, with little chance of being placed on such a list. prestigious as the one that classifies the shows with the most reproductions of the company.
What series are the most watched on Netflix?
The streaming platform officially publishes a list of the content that has accumulated the most hours of playback since its premiere, so this helps us to have a fairly clear view of which series are succeeding on the service and which have stagnated. The situation of Wednesday would be like this:
- The Squid Game: Season 1 – 1,650,450 hours
- Stranger Things 4 – 1,352,090,000 – hours
- DAHMER: Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story – 856,220,000 hours
- Money Heist: Part 5 – 792,230,000 hours
- Wednesday – 752,520,000 hours
- Money Heist: Part 4 – 619,010,000 hours
In search of first place
Considering the (few) days that the series has been released, it will most likely get third place quite easily, however, the higher places seem more difficult. Especially reaching number 1, since we all know that the squid game became a social phenomenon around the planet, something that Wednesday, At the moment, it does not seem to have been achieved -and that we do not stop seeing memes and challenges on social networks, especially related to the iconic dance of the protagonist.
The merit of Wednesday It’s in reinvent a character as well known and mythical as the eldest daughter of the Addams family, and manage to capture an audience that may not have been very familiar with this well-known family (apparently the audience that has ended up succumbing to its charms is mostly young and millennialas we pointed out a little above).
It will be interesting to see how far it goes in terms of viewership. Could it shake up the macabre game of the Squid or the fantastic story of Eleven and his friends?
