The Demand Distribution curve illustrates how a TV show’s popularity compares to the demand benchmark, which is a measure of the average demand across all titles. The curve is divided into performance buckets, ranging from “Below Average” to “Exceptional”. A show falls into one of these performance buckets depending on how many times more or less demand it has compared to the demand benchmark.
The show’s performance is market-specific, e.g. the same show can be in the “Average” range in the United States and in the “Good” range in France.
As an example, if a show has 9 times more demand than the demand benchmark, it falls in the “Outstanding” performance range; only 2.7% of all shows in the market reach this high level of demand.
As an entertainment executive, there are a lot of decisions that you'll need to make regarding the acquisition, distribution, and programming of content. However, these decisions are only as informed as the data you have at your disposal. Fortunately, demand data can help you make more informed content decisions by giving you insights into how audiences are responding to specific shows.
For example, let's take a look at "The Chosen," a popular historical drama that's been airing since 2017. In Canada, "The Chosen" has been performing well, with 6.6 times the audience demand of the average show over the last 30 days. This indicates that the show is resonating with viewers and may be a worthwhile investment for SVOD platforms or linear networks looking to add more historical dramas to their lineup. Additionally, "The Chosen" has a high franchisability score, suggesting that there may be opportunities to expand the show's universe with spin-offs or merchandise.
However, demand data isn't just useful for assessing a show's performance in a single market. By examining demand trends across multiple countries, you can get a better sense of how well a show is resonating with global audiences. In the case of "The Chosen," the show has performed exceptionally well in the United States, with demand levels 10.4 times higher than the average TV show. This suggests that the show may have a strong built-in audience that could be leveraged for advertising or promotion campaigns.
Beyond assessing a show's current audience, demand data can also be helpful for predicting future trends. For example, the fact that demand for "The Chosen" has been increasing in recent months suggests that the show's popularity may continue to grow in the near future. This could influence decisions regarding programming schedules or marketing campaigns.
Finally, it's worth noting that demand data can be useful for making decisions beyond content acquisition and programming. For example, by examining demand trends for specific genres or topics, entertainment executives may be able to identify untapped market opportunities. Additionally, demand data can be helpful for assessing the value of content libraries or individual titles, which is especially important for those in the TV series financing or content distribution space.
Overall, demand data is a valuable tool for entertainment executives looking to make informed content, acquisition, distribution, and programming decisions. By leveraging this data, executives can gain insights into how well specific shows are performing, predict future trends, and identify new market opportunities. Additionally, demand data can be used to assess content valuation, which is critical for anyone making investments in the entertainment industry.
