Netflix’s “Locke & Key” was the top rising show and the service’s “Sex Education” was the top binge show on the TV Time charts for the week ended Feb. 9.
“Locke & Key,” which debuted Feb. 7 on Netflix, is an adaptation of the comic book series. After their father is murdered under mysterious circumstances, the three Locke siblings and their mother move into their ancestral home, Keyhouse, which they discover is full of magical keys that may be connected to their father’s death. As the Locke children explore the different keys and their unique powers, a mysterious demon awakens — and will stop at nothing to steal them.
Meanwhile, Apple TV+’s “Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet,” about the antics in a video game development studio, took the No. 2 spot on the rising show chart.
The British dramedy “Sex Education,” the top binge show, follows a teen who offers sex advice to his peers. Season 2 debuted on Netflix Jan. 17 — just one week after Season 1. The cast includes Ncuti Gatwa, Emma Mackey, Connor Swindells and Kedar Williams-Stirling. Taking the silver on the binge chart was “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina,” season two of which premiered Jan. 24. It follows the adventures of a teenage witch, portrayed by Kiernan Shipka, and is based on an Archie Comics character. Grabbing the bronze on the binge chart was the animated comedy “BoJack Horseman,” which entered its sixth and final season on Netflix Jan. 31.
TV Time is a free TV viewership tracking app that tracks consumers’ viewing habits worldwide and is visited by more than 1 million consumers every day, according to the service. The weekly “Binge Report” ranks shows with the most binge sessions. A binge session is when four or more episodes of a show are watched and tracked in the app in a given day. The “Shows on the Rise” chart is calculated by determining the week-over-week growth in episodes watched for a given program. The network displayed is the network where the show first aired (e.g. “Friends” on NBC).
