Netflix Dinos Roar Past Bridgerton & Night Agent
11 Mar
Summary
- Bridgerton Season 4 maintained its Netflix top spot with 13.1M views.
- New dinosaur docuseries claimed second place with 10.4M views.
- The Night Agent earned a renewal despite a recent viewership dip.
Netflix saw a varied performance across its top titles this past week. The historical drama "Bridgerton" Season 4 continued to dominate, holding the number one position on the Netflix TV Top 10 with 13.1 million views for the week of March 2 to March 8. This marks the first full week of viewership for the latter half of the season, which was released on February 26.
Meanwhile, a new docuseries titled "The Dinosaurs" made a strong debut, capturing the second spot with 10.4 million views. This nature documentary, narrated by Morgan Freeman, covers the evolution of dinosaurs across the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods. It managed to overtake the political thriller "The Night Agent," which fell to third place with 5.2 million views but still secured a renewal for a subsequent season.
Discussions around viewership metrics for split seasons on Netflix highlighted a complex calculation method. Views are determined by hours viewed divided by runtime, meaning the release of additional episodes can alter the calculated "view" count even if viewing hours remain constant. The first four episodes of "Bridgerton" Season 4 previously achieved 23.4 million views in their initial full week.
