In fact, “1899” was able to knock HBO’s “House of the Dragonout of second place this week. Even though the “Game of Thrones” spinoff ended a month ago, it was a major phenomenon that still commands a significant amount of audience attention (32.1 times the average series demand). The fact that “1899” was able to overcome it is a testament to this show’s potential to be a new hit from Netflix.
“Andor” held onto the top spot this week with 39.3 times the average series demand. This is up 4% from its demand last week and includes Nov. 24, when “Andor” reached an all-time high level of demand (45.2 times the average series). The show’s first season had 12 episodes and concluded on Nov. 23. While demand for “Andor” has largely lagged behind other live-action “Star Wars” series from Disney+, a second and final season, scheduled for release next year, will have a chance to build on the foundation laid by the first season.

It premiered on Nov. 13 and saw its demand jump by nearly 40% this week compared to last week, as audiences discovered the latest show from Taylor Sheridan.
