Part 5/10:
For context, a competing documentary about a stranded cruise ship—"Poop Cruise"—garnered approximately 4.5 million views, nearly three times what Iron Heart managed. This stark comparison emphasizes the show's dismal performance. The first episode of Ahsoka, another Disney property, managed 14 million viewers over five days—numbers that Iron Heart fails to come close to matching or surpassing within comparable timeframes.
Furthermore, Disney's pattern of data suppression becomes evident. The company historically withholds or delays releasing viewership figures for newer shows, and the silence surrounding Iron Heart is no different. Over eight days, no official figures have been provided, leading industry observers to believe the show’s engagement metrics are grim.
