What really makes a great series today isn’t defined solely by its storyline, but by the way that story is told. Our research reveals that children’s viewing habits are evolving rapidly. The most successful shows meet young audiences where they are. For instance, in the UK, average daily screen time for children 4 to 15 years old is almost equally divided between broadcasters,
SVOD platforms and video-sharing platforms such as YouTube. Multi-platform strategies are key to maximising reach and engagement.

It is always fascinating to analyse the evolution of children’s consumption and the
stories that appeal to them. Kids connect deeply with relatable characters and universal themes -
family, adventure, humor, music and sports - that resonate across generations. In the session, we’ll
highlight K-Pop Demon Hunters on Netflix with its strong and fun female-leads and storytelling
