Streaming Statistics

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Is it possible to include the show's streaming performance under "Impact"? Either under ratings or on its own subcategory. The show has been in the top 10 most streamed shows in the USA for 2020 and 2021 according to Nielsen. It's the highest genre show in 2020 for both original and acquired shows combined, and 2nd highest genre show in 2021 when you combine both original and acquired shows. It ranked top 7 on both years overall. As per the following sources:

I think it's a significant achievement for the show and needs to be included. Especially since streaming is a significant portion of viewership these days. The show has gone on long enough to have gone from linear broadcast ratings to also experience streaming ratings. Thank you. --FTWinchester (talk) 10:49, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Can we add its 2022 rank? It's 11th on Overall (Original+Acquired) charts, and 8th on Acquired charts for the entirety of 2022. Source: https://variety.com/2023/digital/news/stranger-things-most-streamed-tv-show-2022-1235503095/

Thanks! FTWinchester (talk) 15:48, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Can we add an update for the 2023 statistics please? It tied with 'Heartland' with 22.8 billion views in the 9/10th place for overall shows, also an increase from its total views from last year. Thank you FTWinchester (talk) 20:50, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

In the sidebar under “starring,” please add Jim Beaver, who played Bobby Singer on the show. Taylorjrenee5 (talk) 05:50, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Jim Beaver was never a "starring" cast member, he was credited as a guest star. He is a notable character, but was never part of the main cast. Drovethrughosts (talk) 13:12, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh okay. Got it and thank you! Taylorjrenee5 (talk) 15:08, 4 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Supernatural: Then and Now

(This note should not be included in the article. This podcast is hosted by the actors who played Gabriel and Chuck Shurley/God, making it related. The podcast plans to follow the entire series with comments on all episodes.)

Supernatural: Then and Now is an American based podcast hosted by Rob Benedict and Richard Speight Jr.. The first episode, in which Speight and Benedict interview Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki, was released on 24 January 2022.

The podcast consists of the two hosts watching episodes from the tv show Supernatural, while interviewing the cast and crew that made the 15 season show possible. Guests have included Jensen Ackles (Dean Winchester), Jared Padalecki (Sam Winchester) and Robert Singer (Executive Producer) .

Each episode features Rob and Rich recapping the episode before inviting one or more guests to discuss what happened in the episode as well as background information pertaining to the series, such as casting processes or amusing moments from set. At the end of each season of the show, the hosts publish a wrap-up of the season they have just finished, sharing favourite moments from the season, as well as plans for the consecutive season.

The podcast releases episodes every Monday, and plans to continue through the 15 seasons of the show. It is sponsored by BetterHelp and produced by Story Mill Media. Episode lengths range from 30 - 65 minutes. Whats.Your.Concern (talk) 17:24, 3 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Filming location

Hey, is it me or would this be technically a Canadian-American because it was mostly filmed in Canada especially in British Columbia so shouldn't this show be labeled as a Canadian-American show Sleazydudeeee (talk) 02:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nope, as filming location does not equate country of origin. Plenty of American-produced shows film in Canada or Europe. It's solely American because it's produced by American production companies (primarily Warner Bros. Television Studios and Wonderland Sound and Vision) for American television networks (The WB/The CW). Drovethrughosts (talk) 20:38, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
