The top 20 SVOD original television series in Hungary

We measure the audience demand for television content around the world, factoring in all of the following and more:

  • Audience video consumption (streaming and downloads)
  • Social media engagement (hashtags, liking, sharing)
  • Consumer research actions (reading about shows, writing about shows, etc)

Demand for content is calculated daily for tens of thousands of TV shows in 100+ markets across all television distribution platforms: The more consumer effort is required, the more importance we attach to each of the factors above.

This approach results in the industry’s most advanced global TV demand measurement system, allowing us to provide insights on TV series that audiences the world over truly care about.

So, with all that in mind, here are our top 20 original TV series by a streaming platform for Hungary for Q1 2019:

Which Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Hulu series are most popular?

We define a streaming original series as a multi-episode series where the most recent season was produced or first made available on a streaming platform.

By analyzing each TV series’ demand relative to the market average, we are able to classify each TV show into one of the following TV series performance brackets:

  • Below average (22.4% of all TV shows in Hungary)
  • Average (64.1% of all TV shows in Hungary)
  • Good (8.6% of all TV shows in Hungary)
  • Outstanding (2.7% of all TV shows in Hungary)
  • Exceptional (0.02% of all TV shows in Hungary)

The resulting TV audience demand distribution illustrates how a TV show’s popularity compares to the demand benchmark, which is a measure of the average demand across all titles.

A TV show in Hungary falls into one of the following performance buckets depending on how many times more or less demand it has compared to the market demand benchmark:

A TV show’s performance is market-specific, e.g. the same show can be in the “Average” range in the United States and in the “Good” range in France. As an example, if a show has 9 times more demand than the demand benchmark, it falls in the “Outstanding” performance range; only 2.7% of all shows in the market reach this high level of demand.
