No it isn't. I have a YouTube channel and the viewing statistics for 
that are measured the same way as they are for Disney+. Just 10 seconds 
of watching anything on YouTube counts as a view. The same holds true 
for iPlayer and Disney+. 10 seconds and it's a view. You don't need 
anything more than that. Since we know that each episode of Doctor Whoke 
is between 43 and 55 minutes long it's clear that not all of those 
viewing are watching the whole episode through. As I have a YouTube 
channel I know exactly how many people watch my videos all the way 
through from start to finish. It's only a tiny little fraction of the 
number of viewers I have.

I would love to have had 11,000 people watching all of my videos all of 
the way through in the past 28 days but that's simply not true in any 
way shape or form.

50K or 40K is the total number of views. Only a tiny fraction of that 
are people who have watched for substantially more than 10 seconds. Only 
tiny fraction of what is left is the number who watched for 8 minutes on 
average.

I have have had 11,000 views for my videos over the past 28 days. Doctor 
Whoke only had 20,000 views per episode for the first two episodes, so 
all I need to do is double my statistics to estimate what each episode 
of Doctor Whoke is getting. All but 600 of the 20,000 people Disney+ (or 
Doomcock) claims to have watched each episode have watched it for 
substantially more than 10 or 20 seconds. That's around 8 minutes on 
average. At most only about 1/3 of that have watched each episode from 
start to end. That's only 200 viewers.

I would love to have had 100 people watch my videos all the way through 
on my YouTube channel but I know that even that is barely close to the 
number of viewers I've actually gotten according to my live stats which 
show how much has been watched at any one time and the number of people 
watching. At most only 2 to 4 people have watched 60 to 100% of each of 
my live streams. Doctor Whoke on Disney+ isn't getting much better. 4 to 
8 subscribers have watched the first and second episodes all the way 
through at most if Disney+ is behaving the same way as my channel. I was 
being generous giving it 200 viewers.

200 people at most watched the first two episodes all the way through 
going by Doomcock's alleged total views for the first 2 episodes. And 
that is being extremely generous. In realistic terms it's probably only 
4 to 8 people which is double what my YouTube channel gets over an 
entire month based on views for views. That's about as many transgender 
lesbian feminist homosexuals as subscribe to Disney+ so it's probably 
getting 100% of it's target demographic. LOOOOOL!!!
