25 July, 2018

According to Business Insider, “Netflix earned the most Emmy nominations of any network this year with 112 nods, breaking HBO’s 17-year streak as the most-nominated network.” However, Netflix’s record-breaking year at the Emmys is not reflective of the consumer demand it shares in the television industry based off of our research. We took the average US audience “demand” for the 11 networks that received more than 15 Emmy nominations this year, and compared each network’s market share of consumer demand to its share of 2018 Emmy nominations. Check out the article to see the rest of our finding and which of the broadcasting networks we feel are undervalued.
