Data transparency has become a hot-button issue in the world of streaming. Thanks to numerous companies and Netflix itself, we’ve got a good idea of what’s working and what’s not in recent years. One of the companies releasing data publicly is Samba TV, and below is a catalog of every Samba TV movie and TV Netflix stat released thus far.
Samba TV has emerged in recent years and is one of the go-to analytics companies. They gather data from select Smart TVs, allowing them to get data from 46M TV devices globally and around 28M TV devices in the United States.
Now, sadly, Samba doesn’t provide a perfect benchmark as many of its released statistics cover different periods of time, which can make a big difference. There’s also a slew of other asterisks that need to be added to their data, including the fact Netflix itself does not endorse it.
While we plan to keep this list updated periodically, the best way to catch new Samba TV stats (or Datecdotes as the Entertainment Strategy Guy dubs them) is via the Samba TV X page.
