Infographic: Scripted gaining ground on Events in social TV commentary
Whilst big events still dominate social media comments in the US, shows like The Walking Dead are gaining ground, re. Bluefin Labs
US-based firm Bluefin Labs (who we first posted about here in December) was born out of MIT research into how people comment on the TV they’re watching, via social media. As this survey of US habits last year shows, big events like the MTV VMAs, the Super Bowl and The Royal Wedding tend to take the lion’s share of TV tweets, Facebook comments and the like.
However, as this infographic demonstrates, scripted content can generate almost as much online buzz: The Walking Dead, Once Upon a Time and Twilight created almost as much noise as the VMAs and the Oscars last year. A trend to watch in 2012!
