Acorn TV Reaches New Viewership Highs In May With Month-Long Murder Mystery Event, Fueling Growth For ‘Harry Wilds’ & ‘The Brokenwood’
DeadlineWednesday, June 18, 2025 at 4:00:00 PM
Acorn TV hit a major milestone in May, pulling in its highest viewership numbers ever thanks to a cleverly timed "Murder Mystery May" event. The streaming service cracked 20 million monthly hours watched for the first time, with shows like Harry Wild and The Brokenwood Mysteries getting a serious boost. What’s especially interesting? Acorn usually keeps its stats under wraps—so this peek behind the curtain shows just how well their strategy paid off.
Editor’s Note: For niche streamers like Acorn TV, these numbers are a big deal. It proves that themed events (like a month of murder mysteries) can pull in audiences even in a crowded market. Plus, it’s a win for fans of cozy crime shows—success like this means more seasons and similar content could be on the way. If you’ve ever wondered whether these smaller platforms can compete, here’s your answer.
