Every week, Parrot Analytics provides Business Insider the most in-demand TV shows on streaming services.
This week includes new entries "Black Mirror" and "A Series of Unfortunate Events."

Netflix's "Black Mirror: Bandersnatch" has given the sci-fi anthology series a boost and fans love that "A Series of Unfortunate Events" is back for its final season. But "Stranger Things" still reigns supreme in anticipation for its third season this summer.

Every week, Parrot Analytics provides Business Insider with a list of the seven most "in-demand" TV shows on streaming services. The data is based on "demand expressions," the globally standardized TV demand measurement unit from Parrot Analytics. Audience demand reflects the desire, engagement, and viewership weighted by importance, so a stream or download is a higher expression of demand than a "like" or comment on social media.
