Whip Media Research: ‘Shogun’ Looking to Have Record FX Original Debut
February 23, 2024
“Shogun” is likely the biggest FX original debut in recent history, and among the largest new series to hit Hulu since 2019, according to new audience anticipation research from Whip Media.
The 10-episodes series, which is set to premiere on Hulu and FX Feb. 27 with two episodes, is outpacing such acclaimed Hulu originals as “Only Murders in the Building,” according to Whip.
“Shogun,” a historical drama based on the book by James Clavell, follows the story of an English sailor shipwrecked in Japan.
Whip Media monitors viewing intent via its free TV and movie viewership tracking app TV Time, with more than 25 million global users.
