In one of the season’s most anticipated financial announcements, Netflix reports its Q2 earnings on Thursday, July 16.<\/p>\n
As part of the announcement, the streaming giant shared another “letter to shareholders.” Said letter included impressive viewership details for numerous recent movie and show launches.<\/p>\n
According to Netflix, “Extraction” reached a monstrous 99 million households in its first four weeks. “The Wrong Missy” (59 million), “The Willoughbys” (38 million) and “Da 5 Bloods” (27 million) also posted solid numbers for their first four weeks.<\/p>\n
Netflix also highlighted successful series launches, noting that 51 million households checked out “Too Hot To Handle” during its first four weeks**. Scripted comedies “Never Have I Ever” and “Space Force” each reached about 40 million, while competition series “Floor Is Lava” will garner a projected 37 million.<\/p>\n
The release interestingly did not include a viewership update on “Outer Banks,” which seemed to be one of the platform’s buzziest shows in recent memory.<\/p>\n
As Netflix defines household viewership as anything over 2 minutes, the numbers are not comparable to traditional TV ratings (which look at average viewership for a full episode). Still, they reflect solid interest in the platform’s array of original programming.<\/p>\n
**The letter refers to this as a final figure, but a Tweet from the Netflix “See What’s Next” account says it’s a projection.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Netflix released viewership numbers as part of its quarterly investment statement.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":141465,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048],"tags":[13916,13918,13828,1042,13919,13920,13914,13917,13915],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
