  "textContent": "A few years ago, I published an article where I did a small analysis of my Trakt data, which contains the shows and movies I have watched. I decided to bring that back again under the name \"Year in Popcorn\". I considered \"Year in Movies & Shows\" but I thought that was too long and unappealing 😅. In 2022, I am aware I watched many things, especially TV shows. To say the truth, I feel like I probably watched too many TV shows during the year. However, some of them I also watched on the background while doing something else. Besides, most of the year I was still studying, which made this much easier. Now that I'm working full time, I'm sure the amount of TV shows I watch, or at least the cadence, will decrease. 🏁 First and Last The first thing I watched in 2022 was Episode 2 of Season 2 of Travelers, on the 1st of January at 11:22 in the morning; while the last thing I watched was Episode 10 of Season 3 of Emily in Paris, on the 30th of December at 22:00 in the evening. 🎬 Movies During 2022, I watched 45 different movies, having repeated none, except for \"Everything Everywhere All At Once\", which I watched two times, in different occasions with different people. My top 3 movie genres are Comedy, Romance and Drama. Top Movie Genres | Genre | Count | Percentage | | :-------------- | ----: | ---------: | | Comedy | 23 | 18.4 | | Romance | 14 | 11.2 | | Drama | 13 | 10.4 | | Adventure | 12 | 9.6 | | Action | 11 | 8.8 | | Fantasy | 9 | 7.2 | | Science-Fiction | 9 | 7.2 | | Family | 9 | 7.2 | | Thriller | 5 | 4.0 | | Animation | 4 | 3.2 | | Superhero | 3 | 2.4 | | Holiday | 3 | 2.4 | | Musical | 2 | 1.6 | | Mystery | 2 | 1.6 | | Horror | 2 | 1.6 | | Music | 1 | 0.8 | | War | 1 | 0.8 | | Crime | 1 | 0.8 | | Documentary | 1 | 0.8 | Then, I decided it would be a great idea to see my movie watching habits in two different perspectives: by weekday, and by month. We can see that, when it comes to weekday, I'm more likely to watch a movie on the weekend when compared to a weekday, especially on Saturday. Regarding months of the year, I can see that the most prolific months are December and January, which, historically, has been when I have a break from University. In addition, every time I go to my parents house in Portugal, we watch a movie together every night, which also contributes to the spike in December. 📺 Shows During 2022, I watched episodes from 59 different shows. The show I watched the most was Workin' Moms with 80 episodes watched. Naturally, the show with the higher number of episodes would be the most watched. My top 3 TV show genres are Drama, Fantasy and Science-Fiction. Drama seems to overlap with movies, too. But the remaining ones not that much! Top Shows Genres | Genre | Count | Percentage | | :-------------- | ----: | ---------: | | Drama | 37 | 22.2 | | Fantasy | 24 | 14.4 | | Science-Fiction | 24 | 14.4 | | Comedy | 16 | 9.6 | | Mystery | 13 | 7.8 | | Action | 9 | 5.4 | | Adventure | 9 | 5.4 | | Reality | 7 | 4.2 | | Superhero | 6 | 3.6 | | Romance | 5 | 3.0 | | Animation | 5 | 3.0 | | Horror | 4 | 2.4 | | Documentary | 2 | 1.2 | | Thriller | 2 | 1.2 | | Family | 1 | 0.6 | | Music | 1 | 0.6 | | Soap | 1 | 0.6 | | Crime | 1 | 0.6 | Similarly to what I did for the movies, I also plotted how many episodes I've watched per weekday and per month. Similarly to the movies, there are more episodes being watched on the weekend. However, there is not a large difference between Saturday and Sunday. When it comes to watching patterns per month, I can't see any specific pattern. I did watch a lot of episodes every month, so there doesn't seem to be a specific pattern. --- Well, this was my 2022 in movies and TV shows, which I called \"Year in Popcorn\". I am curious for how this statistics will look like next year. Will I have watched less shows, or maintained? Will the ratio between shows and movies be different? Who knows!"
