While one might think pop culture phenomenon Stranger Things would rule the roost, it was only the most popular show in a handful of territories. In California and Texas, two states with huge Spanish-speaking populations, the CW series Jane the Virgin was tops. The BBC co-production The End of the F***ing World also beat out ostensibly better known shows in several locations.Series that take place locally are also incredibly popular in their given state, as both Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul have remained beloved in New Mexico, and the documentary series Making a Murderer was number one in Wisconsin, where the real life events that series chronicled occurred.13 Reasons Why was the most popular show in the most amount of states in 2018, confirming what a juggernaut that series was with younger viewers especially. Interestingly, Marvel’s Daredevil, Iron Fist and Luke Cage were the most watched series in several states, but that clearly was not enough to save them from cancelation.
