I was listening to a podcast the other day and found out that even bad shows back in those times would get 20 million viewers. Shows these days can't come even close to those numbers because of streaming services taking so much of the market share. We'll never know how many people watch something on most streaming services since they normally remain quite tight-lipped about their interior workings.

That is a great point. My wife and I participated in one of the Neilsen ratings last year. They just kept sending us cash to fill out surveys so we figured why not. I don't think those ratings have the impact or utility they used to because of streaming.
