Parrot Analytics: Netflix and Narcos lead Dutch digital in-demand originals

Netflix series, Narcos

Netflix’s Narcos topped Parrot Analytics’ ‘in demand’ listing of the most sought-after digital originals in the Netherlands in the week beginning September 4.

In a list dominated by Netflix originals, the Colombia-set ‘90s drug-runner drama stood out with over 1.318 million ‘demand expressions’, following the recent launch of the show’s third season – over double the score of the next most popular show, Stranger Things.

Parrot Analytics analyses the demand for recent popular digital titles across international markets, based on the application of artificial intelligence to expressions of demand across social media, fan sites, peer-to-peer protocols and file-sharing platforms.

Amazon’s The Grand Tour was the only non-Netflix title in the Dutch top 10, taking third place with 558,369 in-demand expressions.

The fourth and fifth places on the list were occupied by Netflix stalwarts Orange is the New Black and House of Cards respectively, with 13 Reasons Why, Ozark, Black Mirror, The Last Kingdom and Gilmore Girls: A Year in Life comprising the remaining slots on the list.

As part of a collaboration with Parrot Analytics, Digital TV Europe is providing regular updates on the most in-demand shows across key European markets in the coming months, based on Parrot’s unique datasets.
