What’s Trending on Streaming: Daily Trending Lists for Hulu, Disney+, Peacock, Paramount+ and Max from December 22-December 28

It's been a quiet week on streaming, with Christmas keeping most broadcast shows off the air and few ongoing streaming or cable originals. As such, the rich just get richer, with few new entries coming in to displace them, while cheerful holiday programs also enter on a few services.

Hulu: 

Hulu saw very few new offerings this week, and even saw some pretty surprising re-entries onto the chart. The hastily-produced 20/20 special about healthcare assassin Luigi Mangione led the chart for the first four days of the week, and it was down to sixth place by the close of the week. The annual Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade, which airs Christmas morning on ABC, topped the chart on Thursday. It looked solid the next day, dropping to second, but plunged off the list on Saturday. General Hospital had a less impressive week than usual, a result of only airing three episodes this week rather than the standard five, though it did lead the chart on Saturday. Tsunami: Race Against Time, a Nat Geo series that last aired a month ago and last charted on Hulu nearly as long ago, rose all the way to #1 on Friday. It wasn't the only show to make a surprising rise on the chart. ABC's special from late November celebrating the 60th anniversary of Mary Poppins returned to the chart at the end of last week after about a month off the chart, and it just got stronger towards the beginning of this week, rising to #4 before falling off the list on Wednesday. FXX comedy It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, which will cross over with ABC's Philly-set hit Abbott Elementary next month, popped onto the chart for two days this week, peaking at #11. 9-1-1 also ended a weeks-long absence from the chart by sneaking onto the chart at #14 on Saturday. However, that paled in comparison to new streaming phenom High Potential, which surged all the way to #3 this week despite not airing a single new episode in the last month. Very little original programming actually aired on ABC at all this week, with Robin Roberts-hosted yearly recap show The Year: 2024 being their only original primetime series this week. It debuted in fifth place on Saturday. Fox had few original offerings either. They did air a new episode of The Simpsons, which led the show to a #4 peak this week. They also had a one-off airing of The Great North. The show was certainly weaker than The Simpsons, but in charting for two days and peaking at #9, it looked a bit better than fellow second-tier Fox cartoons Krapopolis and Universal Basic Guys, who tend to disappear after a single day if they even chart at all. Despite not airing this week, Bob's Burgers charted every day and had the highest peak of any Fox cartoon at #3, while the Floor charted five days and also peaked at #3. Christmas pushed several festive options into the top 15, including Prep & Landing and its Naughty vs Nice sequel, Mickey Saves Santa, and CMA Country Christmas, while FX's A Christmas Carol continued to chart. After three days of charting, What We Do In the Shadows exited the chart, likely for the final time.

Disney+:

It was a week understandably dominated by Christmas movies on Disney+, with TV shows mostly struggling to break through. The Disney+-exclusive Simpsons holiday special logged the most appearances of any show this week, charting five times and peaking at #4. The highest peak for any show this week, however, was Star Wars: Skeleton Crew. It was a mixed week for the show, which charted for just two days and was unable to compete with Disney+'s catalogue of holiday classics, but it rose up to #2 on the chart after Christmas, and then slipped to #2 on the chart the day after. Dream Productions returned to the chart on Saturday, nine days after it last charted. The Doctor Who Christmas special debuted at #5, before it dropped to #10 the next day. Home Alone continued to dominate Disney+ this week, leading the chart for the first five days before being replaced by its sequel for the last two days of the week. The Santa Clause, Christmas Vacation, Elf, The Polar Express and The Nightmare Before Christmas were among the holiday classics that continued to chart this week, while The Muppets Christmas Carol made its debut on the chart on Thursday. The Lion King and its 2019 remake continued their omnipresence on the chart, with the remake pulling ahead of the original for the first time on Saturday.

Note: Disney+ is the only service not to provide a separate list for TV shows and movies. On this charts, movies are listed in bold.

Peacock:

It was an incredibly stable week on Peacock. The Office once again led the chart all week with the release of extended cuts of episodes from its eighth season. Peacock original comedy Laid was in second for the entire week, a week after Peacock released its entire first season on the service. It was a light week for scripted on the service, with the aforementioned shows joined on the chart by NBC's St. Denis Medical and Peacock originals The Day of the Jackal and Based on a True Story. St. Denis Medical ranged from sixth to eighth place all week, and was one of only two ongoing NBC series to chart at all this week, the other being SNL, making a single appearance on Monday. Based on a True Story, which released its second season roughly a month ago, hasn't consistently charted since its release, but it did consistently chart this week, and was towards the bottom of the chart all week. The Day of the Jackal ranged from fourth to sixth this week on the chart, weeks after its finale aired. Reality had a large presence on the service this 3week, with Southern Charm, Love After Lockup and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills all charting each day of the week and Married to Medicine charting for six days. Paris & Nicole: The Encore slipped off the list after a single appearance on Sunday. A 2024 recap special hosted by Kevin Hart and SNL's Kenan Thompson logged a single appearance on Christmas, at #10, never charting again after that.

Paramount+:

It was a full sweep for Landman this week, with the Billy Bob Thornton drama proving itself to be a true hit for Paramount+, keeping the lights on as CBS hits pause on their programming for the most part until the end of January. Landman wasn't Taylor Sheridan's only success on Paramount+ this week: with little exception, Tulsa King and Lioness joined it in the top three, with NCIS only breaking that on Friday, where it snuck in at #3, beating out Tulsa King. NCIS, for its part, had another solid week considering it didn't release a new episode this week, never throwing below fifth, and only once dropping below fourth. Its spinoff, NCIS: Origins, remained a non-entity on Paramount+. NCIS's fellow Monday series The Neighborhood ranked tenth on the service for the first five days of the week, but dropped off the chart on Friday. Still, that's better than Poppa's House, which has yet to make a single chart appearance, and a week where it hasn't aired was unlikely to ever be the week where it'd pop up. Few CBS shows actually charted this week at all, with Ghosts being one of the network's only other shows to chart besides NCIS and The Neighborhood. It peaked as high as #4 on the chart, and mostly stayed in the top five, but began to slip by the end of the week. Blue Blood briefly dropped off the chart, but returned soon after, and charted for six days in all. Dexter was a permanent chart fixture this week, while Showtime's prequel series Dexter: Original Sin charted twice - six days apart, at #9 both times. Showtime's The Agency, which was renewed for a second season days after its premiere, made its debut on the chart at #9 on Saturday.

Max:

Dune: Prophecy capped off its run this week with a seemingly-stronger showing on the chart, topping it for six days after leading five days last week. The series remains a less dominant presence on the service than The Penguin was, but has done enough to earn a renewal, and to remain Max's top draw for the final month and a half of 2024. The Sex Lives of College Girls also continued to perform well, topping the chart on Saturday and never dipping below fourth. Creature Commandos didn't top the list at all this week, but looked solid overall, peaking at #2 and consistently charting. HBO's Hard Knocks also charted every day, though it ranked towards the bottom of the list in the early part of the week. Chuck Lorre comedy Bookie remained on the chart the entire week, though it ranked towards the bottom of the chart for much of the week before ultimately rising to fourth overall. British co-production Get Millie Black ended its run this week by returning to the chart, ranking on the chart for two days after being entirely absent last week. Max Original game show Fast Friends charted for four days, peaking as high as sixth at the start of the week, though only going as high as eighth on the chart after a new episode was released. Food Network's Harry Potter - Wizards of Baking, which ended last week, charted for six days before finally leaving the chart, having peaked as high as fourth this week.
