Star Wars: The Mandalorian Tops Most Pirated Show List
While watching the latest series is much easier nowadays due to the existence of streaming platforms like Disney+ and Netflix, there are still some people who don’t watch shows legally.
The Disney+ smash-hit series “Star Wars: The Mandalorian” topped the list of the most pirated shows of 2020, showcasing the popularity of the series around the world. In 2019, it was the third most popular show to pirate.
Here are the top pirated shows of 2020:
- The Mandalorian (Disney Plus)
- The Boys (Amazon Prime)
- Westworld (HBO)
- Vikings (History)
- Star Trek: Picard (CBS All Access)
- Rick and Morty (Cartoon Network)
- The Walking Dead (AMC)
- The Outsider (HBO)
- Arrow (The CW)
- The Flash (The CW)
Piracy has reduced over the years as streaming services have made watching shows and movies much easier, at an affordable price. But many would argue that there are simply too many streaming services. There are also issues internationally where shows aren’t available.
However, with the low price of Disney+ and the ability to have multiple users on an account, hopefully, more people decide that it’s easier to just subscribe to Disney+. Since this helps pay towards making shows like “Star Wars: The Mandalorian”.
Expect next year’s list to feature many more Disney+ shows, especially with so many Marvel shows like “WandaVision” and “Hawkeye”, coming to the streaming platform.

I guess the more interesting the overall offer of Disney is the less 1 tittle will have piracy. Notice how there are no titles from Netflix, I think that tells a lot.
Sorry to say this, but as long as censorship and title availability remain issues with Disney+, people will still be pirating content from that service as a means to avoid subscribing to it. There are several Disney-owned films that have been altered on the Disney+ service where physical releases (and even piracy) are the only means of seeing such content unedited.
