Top SVOD Platforms and Streaming Television Shows in Brazil
Netflix dominates in Brazil with 88% of the total demand for digital original series. While Amazon began the year with about twice as much demand as Hulu, its popularity declined while Hulu’s demand grew to be about 40% higher than Amazon’s demand at the end of the year.
Stranger Things was the most popular digital original series in Brazil, followed by fellow Netflix hit 13 Reasons Why. The German-language title Dark was third, while the most popular non-Netflix title was CBS All Access’ Star Trek: Discovery, which ranked ninth.
Wolf Creek from Australia’s Stan ranked higher in Brazil than Apple’s most-well known title, Carpool Karaoke.
