The top 5 TV shows on Netflix and other streaming services this week

Every week, Parrot Analytics provides Business Insider with a list of the five most "in-demand" TV shows on streaming services. (The data is based on "demand expressions," the globally standardized TV demand measurement unit from Parrot Analytics. Audience demand reflects the desire, engagement, and viewership weighted by importance, so a stream or download is a higher expression of demand than a "like" or comment on social media.)

This week's most in-demand shows include Netflix's "Chilling Adventures of Sabrina," which stayed at the top since last week; Marvel's "Daredevil"; and a new entry, the final season of "House of Cards."

Below are this week's five most popular shows on Netflix and other streaming services:

What critics said:"'The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina' is frequently chilling, but it's rarely much of an adventure. Netflix's new spin on the lore of Sabrina the Teenage Witch, starring Kiernan Shipka ('Mad Men') as our spooky heroine, gets off to a spellbinding start, but over 10 episodes becomes more toil and trouble than it's worth." — Margaret Lyons,New York Times

Season 1 premiered on Netflix October 26.
