For everyone out there that believes Netlfix has tons of data on how you stream and watch your online shows, you are absolutely correct, a company spokesperson told ABC News. 
 
 In fact, the company released a list today it believes contains the exact episode in the first seasons of 25 different series, where the viewer got hooked and had to finish through to the end (of season 1, that is.) 
 
 Many people assume the pilot is the show that is made to entice people and actually does, but Netlfix had other ideas. The company told ABC News that a team of data science engineers focused on 16 markets from January to June of this year and analyzed the gobs of global data. (It should be noted that some of the shows on the list were analizey in less than 16 markets, because the show wasn't available in certain countries.) 
 
 The company pulled the point at which 70 percent of the viewers finished season 1 -- That's the point at which Netflix believes you're in for the duration. 
 
 Here's the list: 
 
 "Arrow," Episode 8 
 
 "Bates Motel," Episode 2 
 
 "Better Call Saul," Episode 4 
 
 "Bloodline," Episode 4 
 
 "BoJack Horseman," Episode 5 
 
 "Breaking Bad," Episode 2 
 
 "Dexter," Episode 3 
 
 "Gossip Girl," Episode 3 
 
 "Grace & Frankie," Episode 4 
 
 "House of Cards," Episode 3 
 
 "How I Met Your Mother," Episode 8 
 
 "Mad Men," Episode 6 
 
 "Marco Polo," Episode 3 
 
 "Marvel’s Daredevil," Episode 5 
 
 "Once Upon A Time," Episode 6 
 
 "Orange is the New Black," Episode 3 
 
 "Pretty Little Liars," Episode 4 
 
 "Scandal," Episode 2 
 
 "Sense8," Episode 3 
 
 "Sons of Anarchy," Episode 2 
 
 "Suits," Episode 2 
 
 "The Blacklist," Episode 6 
 
 "The Killing," Episode 2 
 
 "The Walking Dead," Episode 2 
 
 "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt," Episode 4 
 
 What's interesting, according to Netflix, is that these inflection points and episodes all contained crucial show moments. Episode 2 on "Breaking Bad" was when Walter White has to decide whether or not to commit murder, "Orange is the New Black's" lock episode is when Crazy Eyes gets aggressive in her love for Piper Chapman. 
 
 The spokesperson said after that episode, the numbers and the charts just climb exponentially on who finishes the season. 
 
 Let the debate begin. Do you agree with the episode listed above? We want to know. Voice your opinions below. ||||| A TV pilot may get you interested in a show, but Netflix says it's rarely the episode that gets you hooked. It's probably no surprise that Netflix has been analyzing our TV-watching habits to figure out exactly how we all get obsessed with certain series. It hasn't come to any conclusions about precisely what gets us addicted, but it's found that there tends to be an early episode in each series that, once viewers watch it, leads to a strong chance of people coming back to finish the season. That can be as early as episode two in the case of Breaking Bad or as late as episode eight in the case of How I Met Your Mother. 
 
 The point that Netflix looked for is the episode that, after viewing, kept 70 percent of people on board for the rest of the season, if not more. It's presenting findings today on 25 shows: 
 
 Arrow — Episode 8 
 
 Bates Motel — Episode 2 
 
 Better Call Saul — Episode 4 
 
 Bloodline — Episode 4 
 
 BoJack Horseman — Episode 5 
 
 Breaking Bad — Episode 2 
 
 Dexter — Episode 3 
 
 Gossip Girl — Episode 3 
 
 Grace & Frankie — Episode 4 
 
 House of Cards — Episode 3 
 
 How I Met Your Mother — Episode 8 
 
 Mad Men — Episode 6 
 
 Marco Polo — Episode 3 
 
 Marvel’s Daredevil — Episode 5 
 
 Once Upon a Time — Episode 6 
 
 Orange is the New Black — Episode 3 
 
 Pretty Little Liars — Episode 4 
 
 Scandal — Episode 2 
 
 Sense8 — Episode 3 
 
 Sons of Anarchy — Episode 2 
 
 Suits — Episode 2 
 
 The Blacklist — Episode 6 
 
 The Killing — Episode 2 
 
 The Walking Dead — Episode 2 
 
 Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt — Episode 4 
 
 Netflix's point, of course, is that its method of releasing an entire season of a TV show all at once is a much better way to win over fans. Whereas a pilot may get some people to come back the next week, letting viewers watch through a few episodes in a row appears to be a smarter way of ensuring that they'll return. "We found that no one was ever hooked on the pilot," Ted Sarandos, Netflix's content chief, says in a statement. "This gives us confidence that giving our members all episodes at once is more aligned with how fans are made." 
 
 That said, it's worth keeping in mind that Netflix's data can't actually speak to what happens when people watch these shows week to week on TV: it's only looking at when people get hooked watching these series on demand on Netflix. It's entirely possible that the suspense that comes from waiting week to week creates an entirely different effect on live TV viewers. 
 
 Some countries get hooked sooner, others take longer 
 
 Netflix's data comes from viewing habits on its own service across 16 markets, including the US, UK, and Australia, although not all shows were available in all areas. The episode that Netflix names as the "hooked" episode is the global average, but it found some local variations. "The Dutch, for instance, tend to fall in love with series the fastest, getting hooked one episode ahead of most countries irrespective of the show," Netflix writes. On the other hand, "members in Australia and New Zealand [got] hooked one to two episodes later than the rest of the world on almost every show." 
 
 Another interesting find here is that the number of episodes it takes to get viewers hooked doesn't have a connection to audience size, which means that hooking viewers earlier doesn't necessarily mean that a show will attract more people. That suggests the subject and broader appeal of a show are a critical factor in attracting viewers, even if it takes them a while to get addicted.
– If you're hoping to avoid adding another TV show to your must-watch list, Netflix has a plan to help you out: All you have to do is skip a particular episode and you should be in the clear. Well, maybe. Based on first season viewing data from 25 different shows in 16 markets, including the US and UK, the company identified the point at which at least 70% of viewers finished the rest of the season, reports ABC News and the Verge. A sample: Breaking Bad: Episode 2 Dexter: Episode 3 House of Cards: Episode 3 Mad Men: Episode 6 Orange Is the New Black: Episode 3 Scandal: Episode 2 Sons of Anarchy: Episode 2 The Walking Dead: Episode 2 Since none of the shows hooked viewers during the pilot, Netflix's content chief says "this gives us confidence that giving our members all episodes at once is more aligned with how fans are made," per the Verge. Interestingly, the Dutch seemed to get hooked the fastest—about one episode sooner than the rest—while those in Australia and New Zealand lagged one to two episodes behind. Click for the full list.
