Editor’s note: Due to a data processing issue with Parrot Analytics, the weekly Hot Sheet is being published with back-dated numbers for an indefinite period.
Parrot Analytics calculates its Top 10 lists using Demand Expressions, which are shown by using a metric that demonstrates how much more in-demand the top series are than the average TV show (linear, pay TV, SVOD and AVOD) in Canada. For example, a difference of 1x represents the market average and 10x means a series is 10 times more in demand than the average TV show in this market.
