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.
Entertainment executives across linear and digital channels, content distribution, production companies and OTT platforms rely on demand data to make informed decisions about their content, acquisition, distribution, and programming strategies. In this article, we will explore how demand data can be harnessed to gain essential insights into the audience and competitive landscape, and identify purchasing and programming trends for show creators and distributors. The case in point here is the show "Super Pumped", which can help us to illustrate the power of demand data in content decision-making.

The demand data also highlights that the audience interest in the show is increasing, with demand steadily rising between the last 90 days and the 30 days in March 2024.

These insights can be used by content distribution companies, OTT platforms, and TV networks to make informed decisions about which shows to acquire and where to distribute them for maximum impact.
