Anyone know how many have watched this?


Has Louis CK released any data on how many downloads there have been?

I don't know if this method is useful at all, but comparing it to the People vs OJ Simpson which debuted close to the same time...

People vs OJ Simpson: 3,692 imdb votes, Horace and Pete: 507 votes (13.7%)
Pirate bay torrents (episode 1, top 3 most downloaded): 2209, Horace and Pete: 280 (12.6%)

Using that very unscientific method, if Horace and Pete had 13% of people watch the first episode as People vs OJ which had 5.1 million, it would have had around 660,000

That method should be pretty good in a lot of cases, but not here IMO, because of the difference in distribution

True.

It bears mentioning that there's one of the H&P clips on youtube is at at 77,000 and a few others are in the 20,000s. So that at least is encouraging that there isn't just 500 people watching this which is what it feels like sometimes with the internet traffic

Interesting method.

I have no idea but my guess is that he has maybe 500K-1m subsribers to his web site (?).

I reckon at least half of those would pay and watch weekly. So between 250K-500K a week.

I dunno, I'm probably way over/under- estimating how many subs he has.



I blame the media-blamers
