Stranger Things

According to the most recent information gathered by Symphony Advanced Media, Netflix’s Stranger Things is still one of the platform’s most watched shows. The supernatural drama drew 14.07 million adult viewers ages 18-49 within the first 35 days of its debut and still ranks just below Season 1 of Fuller House and Season 4 of Orange Is The New Black.

According to Variety, Stranger Things ranks higher than both Making a Murderer (13.35 million) and Daredevil’s second season (13.35 million), as well as Jessica Jones (6.26 million), Season 2 of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (6.08 million), The Ranch (6.01 million), the latest season of House of Cards (5.67 million), and F is for Family (4.81 million). Like Amazon and Hulu, Netflix doesn’t typically release ratings due to its “business model” according to executives, therefore all information was obtained by a third party tracking firm.
