Northern Star Getty Images This year has been unlike any other in terms of media consumption around the world. Media consumption rose by over 1 billion hours as the weeks passed during the COVID-19 pandemic. This increase in consumption put an emphasis on streaming services and weekly T.V., according to Nielsen Global Media. With movie studios and directors pushing back movies in avoidance of at-home releases until recently. From streamable shows like “WandaVision” and “The Mandalorian,” re-watchable favorites like “Game of Thrones” and “The Office” to weekly television like “Saturday Night Live,” it’s safe to say T.V. shows have been in high demand.
