If WandaVision has enjoyed an exemplary audience since its broadcast at the start of the year, the Disney + series is also the subject of a much less glowing record. The Marvel series became the most pirated of 2021 on Torrent sites, dethroning The Mandalorian, another Disney + production.
WandaVision, which aired on Disney + since January 15, 2021, quickly became one of the most viewed series of the platform. While it has been overtaken by Loki in terms of popularity, which is also a Marvel / Disney + production, WandaVision has enjoyed a success that has never wavered since its release. So much so that it is today the most hacked series on p2p networks.
Like every year, the TorrentFreak site compiles a list of the most pirated series in the world on Torrent sites. In 2020, the record was held by The Mandalorian. For 2021, the first place is held by WandaVision. The series, which takes place after the events of Avengers Endgame, explains how Wanda Maximoff and Vision are now having happy days in a sitcom universe.
But how did Vision come back to life, and why does each episode take place in a different decade? Starting off on a rather light note, WandaVision is increasingly dark and complex, and will end up playing a vital role in the future of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe). Those who have seen the second post-credits scene from Spider-Man No Way Home or the trailer for Doctor Strange in the multiverse of Madness will agree.
On the list of the most pirated TV shows in 2021, WandaVision is at the top
If WandaVision is in pole position in the ranking of the most downloaded series in BitTorrent, there is a certain Loki in 2nd place. Marvel productions are clearly on the rise on illegal download sites, since almost all of those released in 2021 are among the top 10 most pirated series on BitTorrent. so here’s the list of the 10 most downloaded series in 2021 on the famous p2p network:
- WandaVision
- Loki
- The witcher
- Falcon and the Winter Soldier
- Hawkeye
- What If…?
- Foundation
- Rick and morty
- Arcane
- The Wheel of Time
Note that this list only takes into account the series that are broadcast episode after episode. Those which come out all at once, and which are therefore available for download in the form of a complete “pack”, are not taken into consideration, which can disadvantage series such as Casa de Papel or Squid Game. It is highly likely that these are also in the top 10 most pirated series of 2021.
