Theatres have reopened thanks to the pandemic being gone which means we’re seeing more films releasing in theatres than on OTT platforms. But did you think that this would reduce the amount of OTT content we get? The rise of OTT is unsurmountable and it has basically taken the place of network TV. We can enjoy new shows from the comfort of our house and at any time as per our convenience unlike a specific time like we have on cable. I understand the whole streaming game has gotten kind of out of control as many streaming platforms from all major studios and networks have been launched, which asks people to subscribe to every platform creating a whole new problem. Because of this many people resort to a more simpler way. Piracy. As soon as the show gets online, it is available to watch for free, illegally. Here’s the list of the Top 10 most pirated shows of 2022:
Only One Marvel Show In The Top 10 List!
The list begins with the biggest show of 2022- House of the Dragon. The show accounts for almost 17% of all the piracy that was done. After the whole finale leak, I think it was clear that no show would’ve been pirated more than this one. The popularity of the franchise that the show belongs to also adds to this percentage. House of the Dragon is followed by Chainsaw Man the very popular Japanese anime show. Coming in at number three is Running Man, only a percent short than Chainsaw Man. Falling marginally short is Rick and Morty. Then at number 5 comes in the first and only Marvel show on the list- Moon Knight. It makes sense to be in this list given the amazing cast it had. Beach comes after that. The Eminence in Shadow comes at seventh. The highly anticipated and disappointing Amazon’s Rings of Power comes at eight and then the last two on the list are Spy x Family and The Rising of the Shield Hero, in that order.
Here’s is the complete list of the top 10 with their share of piracy:
- House of the Dragon – 17%
- Chainsaw Man – 13%
- Running Man – 12%
- Rick and Morty – Season 6 – 12%
- Moon Knight – 9%
- Bleach – Season 1 – 9%
- The Eminence in Shadow – 8%
- The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power – 7%
- Spy x Family – 7%
- The Rising of the Shield Hero – 6%
