The ‘Tiger King’ Streaming Numbers Are Insane

| Posted on |

By now you’ve heard of Tiger King, the massive true-crime hit Netflix put out in March. Aided by people staying home because of coronavirus, the series was all anyone could talk about for several weeks. And now the numbers are out, and they’re massive.

According to Nielsen, 34.3 million unique viewers took in the series in its first 10 days, a number on par with two of the Stranger Things series (series 2, 31.2 million; season 3, 36.3 million).

If you haven’t checked it out, it’s addicting as any true crime series I’ve seen. This guy is one of a kind. And if you have seen it, there’s another episode coming.

The news came from an unlikely source: Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Justin Turner. Turner and his wife talked about the show on their podcast, prompting Jeff Lowe and his wife, Christie Dishner, to send them a video announcing the news.
