The Witcher is one of the biggest streaming shows in the US
Toss a coin to your Witcher, because despite some negative critical reviews, the show is a bona fide hit with audiences. Netflix's The Witcher is currently the third most in-demand original series by a streaming platform in the US, behind Stranger Things and Disney's The Mandalorian.
Business Insider reports on data provided by Parrot Analytics that show The Witcher's popularity as measured by "desire, engagement, and viewership of a series weighted by importance," which essentially means that Parrot has its own in-house formula for determining a show's popularity using several key indicators as metrics. According to that algorithm, The Witcher is proving to be an audience favourite.
There's been a marked split in critics' and audiences' reactions to The Witcher. As you can see from our roundup of Witcher review scores, several outlets panned the series, with Entertainment Weekly awarding it an "F" and calling the show "nakedly terrible." But viewers have taken to social media to share their enthusiasm for the show, and Jaskier/Dandelion's "Toss A Coin To Your Witcher" lyrics have become something of a meme.
