LOS ANGELES, Sept. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The number of streaming options today are seemingly endless, and Americans' watchlists are growing longer as many continue to discover must-watch content. New research conducted by OnePoll* on behalf of Plex, the free global streaming media platform, reveals that the average American has 13 TV shows and 16 movies on their watchlist to get through — averaging a total of 104 hours — which is enough content to last two whole flights around the world. 

Key Points: 
  • The study of 2,000 Americans found that 68% keep a TV show and movie watchlist so lengthy, it's "nearly impossible" for them to get through.
  • While over 7 in 10 (73%) keep a list of shows and films they plan to watch, more than half (58%) said they struggle to keep track of everything they want to watch.
  • Discovering content to watch is a challenge: Half of Americans said it's a struggle to find what streaming platform content is available on, averaging 30 minutes of flipping through four different streaming services before deciding on what to watch.
  • "With new content constantly being released to streaming services, it can be difficult to keep track of it all," said Jason Williams, Product Director at Plex.
