Social Buzz: Top TV Shows, March 8-14, 2015

Feeling lucky this St. Patrick’s Day? So was one particular contestant of The Bachelor, who was feeling luckier than the rest on the 19th finale of the show.

This week, we focus on the three finales of The Bachelor, The 100, and King of the Nerds; the two premieres of Bates Motel and Powers; and the Netflix release of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.
With all of these great options, we wanted to know if Facebook and Twitter were abuzz with the following:

• The premiere of PlayStation’s very first scripted original program—the adaptation of the comic book series Powers
• The crowning of the champion in the finale of King of the Nerds
• The latest shenanigans of Kimmy and Titus on new Netflix favorite Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
• Jaha and Murphy’s journey to the City of Light on the finale of The 100
• The 19th finale of the longstanding favorite The Bachelor
• The return of the thrilling and enigmatic Bates Motel

The Social Totals

Social fans were clearly excited for the return of the third season of Bates Motel, as the show had over 450K engagements on Facebook and Twitter, holding 48.7% of market share.

Active Audiences

But the story was a bit different when we incorporated audience size into the equation. On Facebook, Unbreakable was invincible on Facebook with 315.9 engagements per 1K fans. On Twitter,  Bates Motel stirred up some serious activity with 576.1 engagements per 1K followers.
