Every week, Parrot Analytics provides Business Insider the most in-demand original TV shows on streaming services.
This week sees the return of Netflix's "Daredevil" to the list.

Superheroes have dominated streaming for yet another week.

Netflix's Marvel series, "The Punisher," which debuted its second season last month, and "Daredevil," which was canceled last year after three seasons, are two of the most in-demand streaming shows of the week. DC Universe's "Titans" and "Young Justice: Outsiders" continue to be, as well.

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.
