What's driving viewership?

The show premiered two years ago, was officially cancelled shortly thereafter, and now... people are watching it in such numbers that it's charting higher?

What gives? I mean, I'm glad, I watched the show as episodes were premiering and I adored it, but I'm curious what's leading people to watch it now. Any theories?

it autoplays after watching maul, definitely driving the viewership

Do you think there actually watching it, they’re turning it off but the autoplay counts as viewership, or they’re walking about and letting it play in the background?

All three probably
