How TV audiences discover new television shows to watch in Spain
Online word of mouth, via social media, is used by 37% of people to discover new shows. This method has an even split between the genders and between people under and over age 45. Peer-to-peer networks are only used by about 6% of people to find shows: of them, over 70% are men and about 30% are between aged 45 and 54.
In Spain, about a third of people find new shows by either word of mouth or television listings/guides. Word of mouth is more commonly used by young people, aged 18 to 44, and TV guides are more common with audience members aged 45+. Most methods are used evenly by both genders, but magazine and newspaper reviews are more commonly used by men.
