* Parrot Analytics defines demand expressions as follows: "Demand Expressions®: A global metric standard developed by Parrot Analytics which represents the total audience demand being expressed for a title, within a market. Audience demand reflects the desire, engagement and viewership, weighted by importance; so a stream / download is a higher expression of demand than a 'like' / comment."
A digital original series is defined as: "a multi-episode series where the most recent season was produced or first made available on a streaming platform."
