I used to be a bit busy the previous few days so I get to report the most recent Nielsen numbers for Ahsoka a bit later than common. And whereas some individuals could have you ever consider the scores for the present are a whole catastrophe they don’t seem to be actually. However they’re definitely not nice both. So how did Ahsoka in week 3 carry out? Click through for the important numbers!
So how are Ahsoka’s numbers?
Ahsoka isn’t discovered within the prime 10 general charts, and the sequence is in seventh place on the unique sequence charts with 459 million minutes.
However how does that examine to the opposite reveals?
Ahsoka: 459 million minutes / ep 4 size 38:36 = 11.89 million individuals
Obi-Wan Kenobi: 682 million minutes / ep 4 size 36:20 = 18.77 million individuals
Andor: 356 million minutes / ep 5 size 43:10 = 8.25 million individuals
The E book of Boba Fett: 467 million minutes / ep 3 size 37:16 = 12.53 million individuals
The Mandalorian S3: 795 million minutes / ep 3 size 56:11 = 14.15 million individuals
In order you’ll be able to see Ahsoka is performing worse than all the opposite reveals, aside from Andor, and Andor is trailing the competitors by fairly a bit, in reality, in week 3 Ahsoka performs on the extent of The E book of Boba Fett, each are, what I might name “b-tier” characters, they don’t seem to be the massive names like Obi-Wan, Luke or Leia, however have their devoted and devoted fanbase. Nevertheless, The E book of Boba Fett’s scores would quickly skyrocket when it remodeled into The Mandalorian season 2.5, which suggests Ahsoka will seemingly be forward of Andor however trailing every little thing else by fairly some margin. Additionally, the 11.9 million individuals appear to be a lot nearer to Ahsoka’s “true” numbers, i.e. this week’s numbers aren’t as a lot impacted by individuals watching earlier episodes as earlier than or individuals not watching all episodes within the first week of launch. Each Obi-Wan and Andor, the opposite reveals that launched multiple episode in week 1, had this impact and scores solely stabilized in week 3. With week 1 underperforming and week 2 overperforming (as a result of in week 2 Nielsen counts all of the individuals who meet up with the primary couple episodes).
Solely Lucasfilm and Disney know if they’re pleased with 11.89 million individuals for Ahsoka in week 3. As talked about beforehand I’m not positive these numbers enhance confidence within the potential success of an eventual Filoni Star Wars film about no matter his model of the Thrawn trilogy will likely be.
And whereas the numbers for Ahsoka aren’t an absolute catastrophe as YouTube could have you ever consider, they’re definitely additionally no cause to have fun. With these numbers Ahsoka is the 2nd worst performing Star Wars sequence. However what you see right here is how massively The Mandalorian season 3 misplaced viewers with its third episode. Now the third episode right here was the random segue to Dr Pershing getting on a date with an Imperial spy on Coruscant and getting his thoughts scrambled by the oh so benevolent New Republic, one thing that was not related in any respect for something actually on this season. The scores recovered after that nonetheless.
You can too see that Ewan McGregor’s Obi-Wan, regardless of the lower than stellar writing and fewer than nice plot, had huge attraction. In week 3 the present had nearly 19 million “views”, which places it roughly in The Mandalorian territory.
As talked about earlier than I really feel we will study one factor from all this: Ahsoka is common, however possibly her absolute recognition was considerably overestimated. After all one other challenge could also be that her sequence is sort of solely for followers of The Clone Wars and Rebels, a considerably restricted viewers to start with, as a result of each of those reveals, even at their respective heights, solely had a small fraction of the viewers a reside motion sequence and naturally the films have. So the general fanbase is only a subset of all Star Wars followers, particularly the extra informal followers are in all probability not likely familar with the animated reveals.
We must see the place Ahsoka’s journey on the Nielsen charts will go. There’s additionally an opportunity it could drop off the charts, which all the time depends upon how the competitors is doing. Nevertheless, the present in tenth place solely has 298 million minutes, if this gained’t change within the coming weeks Ahsoka mustn’t drop out of the unique sequence prime 10, not like Andor, which confronted some stiffer competitors and dropped out of the charts for one week mid-season.
What else: the same old. Disney+ is woefully underperforming given its subscriber base. Netflix is wiping the ground with the competitors with its hit reveals Virgin River and One Piece, nothing comes even remotely shut right here. Even when Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” is #1 on the film charts, at the very least for this week, the film will in all probability drop off the face of the earth fairly shortly, leaving evergreen Moana as soon as once more the one Disney film on the charts, however Moana could be very, very constant.
Addendum: Shin was not likely in Disneyland on Peridia. It is a Secure Diffusion AI generated picture of Shin having some effectively deserved downtime created by me. Within the precise episode Shin was combating in a darkish forest, chopping down timber, glowering and intensely staring as common. And Sabine gave up the map to Thrawn and Ahsoka sort of not died. In case you forgot.
