Netflix to publish weekly report for its most popular TV shows, movies
To be more transparent about the viewership
of its top series and movies, video-streaming giant Netflix will begin
publishing a weekly report detailing its most popular TV shows and movies.
The company said it will publish the new weekly "Top 10 on
Netflix" every Tuesday based on hours viewed from Monday to Sunday the
previous week for both original and licensed titles.
"We have broken the lists down as follows: global Top 10
lists for Films (English), TV (English), Films (non-English) and TV
(non-English), as well as rankings for over 90 countries. The website is
currently available in English and Spanish, with more languages to come next
year," the company said in a blogpost.
"These weekly lists are in addition to the daily country Top
10 rows we introduced on Netflix last year,
which will now also be based on hours viewed. So whether you are searching for
Top 10 on Netflix or
browsing directly on our service, it's incredibly easy to see what other people
are watching," it added.
Netflix said it will also update overall lists, which it first
published last month, as new titles become mega hits.
These lists are based on the total hours viewed in a title's first
28 days on Netflix.
"This is an important step forward for Netflix, the creators
we work with and our members. People want to understand what success means in a
streaming world, and these lists offer the clearest answer to that question in
our industry," the company said.
