Views-to-subscriber conversion
Sub gain relative to weekly view volume
Subscriber surge accelerating
+100.0K subs gained on Apr 11 — the highest single-week gain in this 6-point window. Likely driven by a high-performing video upload.
Apr 9 sub anomaly
Zero subscriber growth despite 12.8M views that week. Possible data artifact, or audience retention without conversion — worth monitoring.
Views floor is very high
Even in "off" weeks, The Daily Show sustains 2–5M weekly views. This baseline is a strong moat — hard for competitors to match at scale.
