With the Netflix bar for 1 suddenly at 36.58 million hours Cobra Kai season 5 cannot come too soon.
Netflix limited series Echoes landed 36.58 million hours viewed from August 29 September 4 according to the streamer. Thats good enough to rank number one for the final week of summer among Netflixs English language TV shows but its just plain not good enough.For any individual title being number one on Netflix is an impressive feat. The Netflix library has 17000 pieces of content more than half of which are originals or exclusives. However quality and quantity for both subs and for programming are getting harder to come by.
The streamer began sharing its weekly Top 10 in late June early July 2021. Of the 62 weeks Netflix has measured thus far by our count 42 had a number one show with more than twice the viewership of Echoes last week. As recent as a month ago and several other times this summer this Echoes performance would not have even made the Top 5.Netflix is under an enormous pressure to continue to churn out hits and to avoid churn the loss of subscribers. But penetration has maxed out in key read rich markets like the U.S. and Canada and a major loss of company valuation and investor confidence means Netflix can no longer afford to spend as freely as it once did.
Meanwhile a pair of non-English-language shows outperformed Echoes by some distance. South Koreas Extraordinary Attorney Woo” saw 48.82 million hours in its ninth week on the Top 10 and Mexicos High Heat scored 44.05 million hours. Outside of streaming blockbusters like Squid Game Money Heist All of Us Are Dead English-language shows usually dominate streaming hours.
