The FX and Hulu epic series “Shōgun,” based on James Clavell’s celebrated 1975 novel, slayed streaming competition this week to hand Hulu its first No. 1 slot in the Samba TV Weekly Wrap for the week of Feb. 26 to March 3.
The first episode of the initial three-episode drop of the much-anticipated series was watched by a 1.8 million U.S. households over its first six days. Helping give the series its bump were baby boomers, with the demographic over-indexing above the national average by 15%.
Making up the rest of the Top 10, two streamers broke through Netflix’s hold: Max’s splash debut of the “Aquaman” sequel “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” at No.
