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.
For entertainment executives working in various capacities, demand data can be an invaluable tool to help inform content, acquisition, distribution, and programming decisions. To illustrate the point, let us evaluate the case of "Quantum Leap (1989)" in March 2024 in the United Kingdom by answering some of the key questions provided.
Firstly, content valuation uses demand data to assess the value of a title. For example, executives can use Parrot Analytics' content valuation system, which is based on demand data, to calculate how much a series is worth, its dollar value contribution to a platform, and its ability to attract or retain subscribers. In the case of "Quantum Leap (1989)," we can see that it has a good level of audience demand, which has been decreasing recently. It has a higher demand than 94.4% of all drama titles in the UK, and fans of the show are also interested in other titles such as "Doctor Who," "Rick and Morty," and "Stargate SG-1."
Secondly, demand data can be used to inform acquisition decisions. For instance, executives can use demand data to identify which types of content show potential for acquisition or production, whether a title is worth its acquisition cost, and which titles will drive subscriptions and mitigate churn. By evaluating the demand for "Quantum Leap (1989)" in countries such as Italy, the US, and countries across Europe, executives can determine its potential success in different markets, and whether to distribute it further globally.
Thirdly, demand data can help with programming and distribution decisions. As an example, by examining the peaks and drops of the demands for "Quantum Leap (1989)" in the UK during March 2024, executives can assess its reception and optimize its release strategy and price targeting. Additionally, executives can use Parrot Analytics' demand data to discover and optimize recommendations and make programming decisions based on audience preferences.
Fourthly, demand data reveals insights about audience taste and preferences. By analyzing which shows have similar audiences to "Quantum Leap (1989)," executives can understand the interests of its fanbase and target content that aligns with those tastes.
In conclusion, entertainment executives can use demand data from tools like Parrot Analytics to guide their content, acquisition, distribution and programming decisions.
