casual viewer
Non-dedicated audience member
A casual viewer watches something without deep investment or regular commitment.
The term appears most often in discussions of television, sports, or streaming content, distinguishing people who tune in occasionally from dedicated fans: The show needs to appeal to casual viewers, not just die-hard fans.
A casual viewer might watch a championship game without following the season, or catch a few episodes without binging the whole series.
