In a December press release, the platform announced that it would publish biannual engagement reports on what viewers watched on Netflix. The first “What We Watched: A Netflix Engagement Report” tracked title performance from January to June 2023.

The data, which includes over 18,000 titles, includes the number of hours each was viewed in a six month time period, whether or not it was available to stream globally, and when it premiered. According to Netflix, the titles in the report reflect 99% of all viewing on the platform, and total close to 100 billion hours of watch time.
