Increasingly, trends in binge watching continue to be a more prominent part of consumers' video consumption habits. According to Deloitte, nearly three quarters (73%) of US consumers say they binge watch video content. Looking at binge watching results is important as it represents an evolution in viewing habits away from the weekly cadence of traditional linear television -- providing an alternative standpoint by which to assess advertising decisions as binge-watched content is often in ad-free environments.
The Company measured programming during the period to determine shows most likely to be consumed as binge-watched content (i.e., households watching two or more episodes of the same series during a single 48-hour window). AMC's The Walking Dead and HBO's Westworld top the list and stand out as significant outliers. The shows were observed to have six and five times higher propensities to be binge-watched over the period, respectively.
