The Nielsen Streaming Charts For The Acolyte – Week 2


Nielsen have a considerably erratic launch schedule at present, they launched their early June numbers earlier this week… and on Friday they already adopted up with the numbers for the following week. No matter… Nielsen have due to this fact now added The Acolyte episode 3 (the flashback episode in regards to the energy of maaaaannyyyyyyyyyy) to their charts. And we will lastly evaluate one full week of The Acolyte on the Luminate Streaming charts to 1 full week on the Nielsen charts. How do the numbers evaluate? It’s very fascinating! Click on by way of for all the small print!

The Nielsen Streaming Charts For The Acolyte – Week 2

The ability of… none…

The Acolyte is in a relatively “meh” sixth place on the unique sequence streaming charts with fairly unhealthy 370 million minutes seen.

The fascinating factor right here is that that is nearly the identical quantity as reported by Luminate. Week 1 numbers diverged due to the totally different interval each corporations use, Friday to Thursday vs Monday to Sunday. However now that each Nielsen and Luminate have charts the place The Acolyte had a full week to build up viewing minutes we discover that each Luminate and Nielsen agree. Luminate even has the considerably larger numbers, 380.5 million minutes vs the 370 million reported by Nielsen, however all in all that is in excellent settlement. It additionally spells potential catastrophe for the present on the Nielsen charts as a result of on the Luminate charts The Acolyte dropped out of the highest 10 and viewing minutes drastically declined as extra episodes have been launched.

As compared:

Ahsoka had 487 million minutes in week 2. Boba Fett had 563 million minutes even. Even Andor had 485 million minutes. And episode 3 of The Acolyte was one of many longest with 42 minutes and nonetheless solely has 370 million minutes.

If all folks simply watched episode 3 it means 8.81 million folks watched it, however in fact folks additionally watched earlier episodes that week. The identical metric for Andor offers us 10.32 million views nonetheless and Andor was, earlier than The Acolyte, the present with the least views on Disney+. In fact folks additionally watched the earlier Andor episodes that week. However the truth that week 2 numbers for The Acolyte are already worse than Andor’s speaks volumes!

Nonetheless, I consider it’s a lot better to take a look at season averages, so whole runtime vs whole viewing minutes!

The Acolyte (Nielsen): 865 million minutes whole, whole runtime 119 minutes, common views 7.27 million
Ahsoka (Nielsen): 1,316 million minutes whole, whole runtime 132 minutes, common views 9.97 million

Andor (Nielsen): 1,109 million minutes whole, whole runtime 161 minutes, common views 6.89 million
Obi-Wan Kenobi (Nielsen): 1,984 million minutes, whole runtime 135 minutes, common views 14.7 million
The E-book of Boba Fett (Nielsen): 952 million minutes whole, whole runtime 89 minutes, common views 10.7 million
The Mandalorian S3 (Nielsen): 1,712 million minutes whole, whole runtime 77 minutes, common views 22.23 million

On the Luminate charts week 2 had the best quantity for The Acolyte, in subsequent weeks the present would have lower than 300 million minutes watched, down all the way in which to about 220 million earlier than it dropped out of the charts.

Though Andor had a really gradual begin, as a result of three prolonged episodes have been all launched without delay, and sooner or later later too (The Acolyte airs on Tuesday nights, Andor was launched on a Wednesday!) The Acolyte is already solely barely forward of Andor anymore. Week 2 numbers if straight in contrast see Andor already forward of The Acolyte which is simply embarrassing. Chances are high very excessive the season common for The Acolyte will drop beneath Andor’s common quickly.

The Acolyte has simply 75% of Ahsoka’s viewers. And Ahsoka’s viewing figures have been already simply “common and okay” at greatest, the second worst after Andor earlier than The Acolyte. The truth is, Andor’s finale would finally have higher numbers than Ahsoka’s.

When in comparison with season 3 of The Mandalorian, the season many didn’t even like all that a lot, The Acolyte doesn’t even fairly have 1/3 of the Mandalorian viewers, 32.7%. That means greater than 2/3 of the potential viewers of a Star Wars sequence on Disney+ by no means watched The Acolyte and by no means bothered. Droves of followers have stated “no” from the very get go. This could give meals for thought for Lucasfilm.

Much more embarrassing: Bridgerton, that feminine centric present watched truly by ladies, has greater than 9 instances (!!!) the viewing minutes. 3.4 billion vs 370 million for The Acolyte. This too is in settlement with Luminate. Nielsen nonetheless has no numbers for the separate seasons however simply supplies an total quantity for all the present.

And it must be identified as soon as once more: Lucasfilm spent 180 million on this, earlier than advertising. So nearly definitely in extra of $200 million. And it’s a scores flop. Week 2 sees it already behind Andor which is simply pitiful. And if Luminate and Nielsen stay to have the same opinion it’s going to solely be downhill from right here.

There isn’t any solution to spin or sugarcoat this: The Acolyte’s scores are unhealthy and likelihood is they may turn out to be lots worse as Nielsen provides extra episodes. We will additionally say now that Luminate and Nielsen are very a lot in settlement on the subject of the numbers, which can be considerably stunning however speaks for the reliability of those third celebration analysts. Even the numbers for Bridgerton are comparable between Nielsen and Luminate, each have this present because the #1 unique streaming sequence.

And Home of the Dragon debuted with 741 million minutes btw. And this despite the fact that it’s additionally on cable (so it’s on the acquired sequence charts). It’s crushing Star Wars. And each reveals price about the identical. A mere spin off of an unfinished ebook sequence and a streaming present that had a extremely controversial and hated final season simply outperforms a present from what as soon as was some of the profitable Hollywood franchises of all time. Let that sink in. And Home of the Dragon additionally has feminine leads, a feminine showrunner, folks principally simply discuss. And it crushes The Acolyte. How may it ever come to this? And naturally each reveals have huge overlap on the subject of the viewers… unusual although how Home of the Dragon is just not “overview bombed”…

Additionally, Disney solely has 4 entries on the Nielsen charts. Bluey, as typical, not their IP even, Inside Out, Moana (as typical) and The Acolyte. Even Paramount+ has six entries. Disney+ is additional falling behind on the subject of streaming marketshare. Iger can’t be completely satisfied about that. And the tremendous costly The Acolyte makes issues solely worse. And the upcoming reveals spell catastrophe for Disney+, Agatha After All will nearly definitely be a flop. Skeleton Crew may even most likely at greatest have numbers just like The Acolyte, if in any respect. Why ought to folks even subscribe to Disney+, except they need entry to the previous films? Perhaps Inside Out 2, as soon as it turns into accessible, will give Disney+ a lift. Star Wars and Marvel definitely not. Which is simply unhappy. Star Wars ought to rule supreme. The Drive Awakens was some of the watched films of all time. And now this.
