‘Tiger King’ Holds Longest Streak as No. 1 on Netflix’s Top 10 Titles List

By April 10, 2020No Comments

Big news for Mrs. Screens people who love watching train wrecks: Tiger King was the most-watched show on Netflix for 15 straight days.

Longest daily streaks on Netflix:
1) Tiger King – 15+
2) The Trials of Gabriel Fernandez – 6
3) Love Is Blind – 5
4) Spenser Confidential – 5

BTW: Netflix started releasing daily rankings in February.

Netflix shows with the largest viewership over the first ten days, according to Nielsen:
1) Stranger Things (Season 3) – 36M
2) Tiger King – 34M

Burning question #1: How does someone in prison upload videos of themselves talking on a landline to Netflix?  Asking for a friend…

Burning question #2: Is there anything more LA than Justin Turner (Dodgers Third Baseman) replying to “our friend” Jeff Lowe on Twitter regarding an extra episode coming to Netflix?

Immediate answer: 100%.  OJ has a Twitter account along with an opinion on whether Carole Baskin killed her husband…

And so do Amazon delivery drivers (unscientific poll)!

The craziest people on Tiger King according to The Federalist:
1) Joe Exotic (not obvious IMHO)
2) Allen Glover
3) Carole Baskin
4) John Finlay
5) Jeff Lowe
6) Dr. Bhagavan ‘Doc’ Antle (sleeper pick)
7) James Garretson
