Part 5/10:
- Binge Versus Weekly Releases: The Rings of Power had an accelerated release schedule with two episodes simultaneously, totaling roughly 132 minutes. If we assume most viewers watched both episodes, that's about 9.5 million viewers' worth of engagement per episode. Conversely, House of the Dragon's single episodes, each around 60 minutes, show steady individual performance, and its ongoing cable and streaming combined viewership remains high.
