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.
How content valuation can assist in acquisition decisions:
"Game Of Thrones" has a demand value of 9.0 times the audience of the average show in New Zealand during July 2023. Using Parrot Analytics content valuation, executive decision-makers at an SVOD platform or linear network can determine its dollar value contribution to their platform/channel. This will enable these decision-makers to make informed acquisition and content bidding decisions. As "Game Of Thrones" has an exceptional global demand, it could be considered a strategic asset for a streaming platform since it drives significant viewer acquisition and retention. Therefore, content valuation can also be used to determine whether to invest in licensing an existing show, creating a spin-off, or investing in more original content.
How demand informs content distribution and programming decisions:
Since "Game Of Thrones" has an exceptional global demand, using demand data can inform programming and distribution decisions for studios and linear networks.

How demand data informs content decisions:
Parrot Analytics' demand data helps TV series financing companies, entertainment talent agencies, and TV production companies to evaluate concepts for TV shows and identify opportunities to produce or acquire content that meets demand. For instance, they can use "Game Of Thrones" and their related titles to assess[ the genre popularity, identify gaps in the market demand, and generate ideas for shows that can emulate their success. Additionally, the demand analytics can be used to assess the impact of brand or talent partnerships on a show's success, which can be useful information for talent agencies that want to pitch their clients as part of an ensemble cast, or production companies that are identifying talent for their upcoming shows.
How demand data informs optimal release strategy:
Demand analytics can inform executives from OTT or SVOD platforms and Linear networks of the best release strategy for their content, which they can use to improve engagement. For "Game of Thrones," the demand spike in late July 2023 in New Zealand, indicates that releasing the show during this period could increase its viewership.
