Big Mouth Searches

Season 2 of the Netflix adult cartoon series Big Mouth landed on October 5th. Much of the show focuses on the sexual fantasies of it’s main characters (including some references to Pornhub), so it’s no surprise that fans began searching Pornhub for parodies of the cartoon. Cinema Blend asked Pornhub’s statisticians to take a closer look.

By October 8th, searches were 14,937% higher than their daily average before the new season arrived. In just over a week, 1 million people have searched for “big mouth” on Pornhub. On it’s peak day, searches for “big mouth cartoon” nearly equaled those of “cartoon” (nsfw), one of Pornhub’s usual top 20 searches.

The most common searches containing “big mouth” have been:

  • big mouth cartoon
  • big mouth
  • big mouth show
  • big mouth lips
  • big mouth cartoon sex
  • big mouth blowjob

YouTube Down, Pornhub Up

YouTube experienced a rare global service outage on October 16th, between 9:30 pm and 10:45 pm Eastern time. Mashable checked with us to see if YouTube’s disruption an effect on Pornhub traffic, and it certainly did. When you can’t tube, you fap instead!

Traffic to Pornhub surged during the outage, reaching 21% above daily averages at 10 pm. That’s a significant increase by millions of additional viewers during Pornhub’s peak evening hours.

During the outage, our statisticians also found some search terms had increased in popularity well above their average levels on October 16th. Searches for “asmr” increased by 201%, as people looking for an Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response were just as likely to find that on Pornhub as YouTube. Searches containing “YouTube” increased by 183%, along with other terms likely to appear on both streaming sites including “wwe”, “bowsette“, “fortnite“, “minecraft“, “game”, “pokemon“, “celebrity” (nsfw), “twitch”, “overwatch” and “halloween“.

Bowser and Bowsette

In the latest example of something breaking the internet, we have Bowsette, a fantasy hybrid between Nintendo characters Bowser and Princess Peach. Originally based on a fan-drawn comic, within days the internet spawned countless other Bowsette themed fan art.
