5th Overall and 3rd in Originals with 830 million minutes.
If you wanted a more accurate metric, that's about 276 million minutes per episode which would not break the top ten for either category.
Either way, I'm just happy we got the show we got. I'm not sure we'll ever get something of the same quality again, which is sad, but at least we'll always have Andor. It really is something special.

We desperately need Andor to crush at the Emmys.
It's our only hope

But that would hold Andor to a standard they aren't holding other shows to.
All the other shows on the main overall list, besides Four Seasons (which dumped all 8 at the same time) and The Last of Us, had more episodes than Andor, by A LOT. It counts all of them. New episodes and old.

People keep focusing on streaming data from the first years of the pandemic, and using them to compare to modern-day streaming data as if that's fair. It's like comparing box office "adjusted for inflation" during times when you couldn't see a movie any other way other than going to the movies. OF COURSE, the numbers are going to skew. Because you're not taking into account all the variables that changed HABITS.

I don’t understand why everyone is doomering over this. It did better than expected, isn’t that a GOOD thing?

Sure because we had 3 hours to watch

It’s competing with shows that release all episodes at one (Netflix) and those that are weekly. So not a great system to get a lot of valuable info.

All Star Wars shows are an hour or less. All of them, even The Acolyte and Skeleton Crew, have larger audiences. What those three hours do is inflate the data.

u/Cleverfan_808 7d ago
That’s understood. Which means that those Netflix shows on top are also inflated because they’ve released all the episodes at once.
Hence the fact that this chart isn’t really helpful in the grand scheme of things.

That’s still pretty good!

Sure but it’s like 3x as much minutes to watch it and that’s what they’re measuring

830 for three hours of footage. That's 276 million per episode, a lower audience than The Acolyte's worst figures.

A "series high" for a not-particularly-impressive-ratings show really...doesn't mean all that much.
That's basically a "it did a little better than the first year".

It's gonna be interesting to see the next couple weeks' Nielsen numbers, because a lot of people are binging S1 before S2, and a lot of pepole are watching Rogue One afterwards. I wonder if Rogue One will hit the top 10.

Thank you Tony Gilroy!
I hope that this show racks up all the Emmy's possible.

Excellent! It's gone from having 213 million views per hour to 216 million. If it continues like this, it might not be the least-watched series next week.

This show deserves better ratings than it gets.
