Hulu:
It was another strong week for Hulu originals, with their original drama Paradise once again rising to #1, this time holding there for three days. The series has already been rewarded with a second season, and its chart performance exemplifies why they were so quick to hand it that renewal, with the series staying in the top three the entire week. Also looking strong was new docuseries Devil in the Family, which entered at #4 on Thursday and then was #1 the last two days of the week. ABC series took #1 the other two remaining days of the week, with Scamanda leading off the week at #1, having ended its run on ABC a few days before. The show remained on the chart the entire week, though it was down to #15 by Saturday. The Rookie was ABC's best-performing scripted series this week, peaking at #1 and only dropping as low as #7 on the chart, an improvement over its performance the previous week. Fellow ABC drama Will Trent peaked at #3, a bit lower than last week, but its worst showing was #11, better than the previous week. Abbott Elementary came back from a week off and peaked at #5 during its three appearances on the chart this week. Shifting Gears charted two days and peaked at #7. The Bachelor peaked at #2, and was within the top ten for five of seven days this week. 20/20 peaked at #9 this week in its three appearances. General Hospital charted six days this week. High Potential remained on the chart for the first four days of the week before finally departing, two weeks after its season finale. Celebrity Jeopardy! and a special about Superman actor Christopher Reeve and his son were ABC's only shows that failed to chart this week. Fox renewed their new medical drama Doc this week for several reasons, one of which being its strong streaming performance. Of all of their shows this week, it performed the best, peaking at #5 and charting the entire week. Reality series Extracted had the highest peak of any Fox show, though, at #4. Despite peaking high, it only charted three days in all. That's better than The Masked Singer, which charted just one day. The Floor charted four times, and peaked at #9. Rescue: HI-Surf had an extremely underwhelming week, charting just one day, at #8. Also charting just one was Animal Control, at #14. Gordon Ramsay series Kitchen Nightmares and Next Level Chef both charted, with Next Level Chef charting higher out of the two shows, with a #5 peak. It also lasted much longer not he chart, with four appearances on the chart compared to just one for Kitchen Nightmares. The animated lineup remained mostly MIA, though Family Guy improved this week with a #8 peak and four placements within the top fifteen for the week. In terms of Hulu originals, true crime series The Fox Hollow Murders and How I Escaped My Cult both peaked at #2, as did The Kardashians. Historical drama series A Thousand Blows was off the chart after three appearances this week.
Disney+:
It was looking to be a clean sweep for Pixar's animated series Win or Lose, which won the first five days of the week on Disney+, but a Hulu series came along to stop the sweep. Docuseries Devil in the Family, which also performed very well on Hulu itself, went straight to #1 on Disney+, spending two days in a row at #1 on the service. Another Hulu series, Paradise, looked excellent on Disney+, charting the entire week, an improvement over the previous week, when it charted five days. Dream Productions returned to the top ten for two days, likely boosted by the strong start for Win or Lose. Shifting Gears, once a staple of this chart, charted just one day this week, at #7, before dropping off the chart the next day. Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man was off the chart on Friday, having peaked at #3 during its five chart appearances this week. Nat Geo docuseries Fur Babies, about pregnant animals, charted a single day at #4. Wizards Beyond Waverly Place returned to the chart at #6 after the addition of the second half of its season, having finished airing on Disney Channel. Several movies spent a good deal of time on the chart this week. One such film was Ice Princess, a modest box office performer in 2005 that became a cult hit thanks to repeated airings on Disney Channel, which hit the charts after the tragic death of its star, Michelle Trachtenberg, who left us this week at just 39. Other films in the top ten included Lil & Stitch 2, Captain America: Civil War, Venom, and the Avengers films.
Note: Disney+ is the only service not to provide a separate list for TV shows and movies. On this chart, movies are listed in bold.
Peacock:
Law & Order: SVU was once again the undisputed powerhouse of Peacock this week, leading their chart the entire week. The venerable procedural was easily the strongest current NBC series this week, with #2 on the Peacock charts being occupied by The Office six times this week, and The Traitors the other day. Chicago PD was NBC's next-best performer, charting at #3 four times this week and a t #4 the other three days. In a surprising twist, Chicago Med actually managed to outperform Chicago Fire three times this week, the first such occurrence this season. In another semi-surprising development, Found returned to the Peacock chart after several months of being almost-entirely MIA, charting three times this week. Suits LA charted once this week, at #9. Law & Order charted three times this week. Happy's Place, Grosse Pointe Garden Society, The Americas, The Voice, The Hunting Party, The Irrational, St. Denis Medical, Night Court and Deal or No Deal Island all failed to chart this week. As always, several Bravo series charted, including the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Southern Charm, and Peacock's own Days of Our Lives charted four times.

Paramount+:
After roughly two months without a show from their top creator, Paramount+ rolled out another show from the Taylor Sheridan universe, with Yellowstone spinoff/prequel 1923 debuting its second season. The series topped the streamer's chart more than any other show this week, spending three days at the top. Its worse performance was dropping to #5 on Thursday, and it followed that up by returning to #1 the next day. NCIS looked strong as well, at #1 for two days this week and never dropping under #3 on the chart. School Spirits and Yellowjackets both ended up dropping off the chart one day this week, marking a worse performance for them than the previous week, but they also both managed #1 peaks, so both had solid weeks in all. With new competition from 1923, several CBS shows missed out on returning to #1 this week. Tracker and Fire Country both peaked at #2 this week. Both series charted four days in all, with Tracker matching its performance from the previous week and Fire Country looking a bit weaker. Watson charted for one day at #8, a drop from its #4 showing the previous Monday. The Neighborhood peaked at #4, and only charted three days this week, a below-average showing. For comparison, it charted six days last week, when it didn't air, and charted half as many days when it did air, so definitely an off week for it. FBI charted two days, and peaked at #3 this week, and spinoff FBI: Most Wanted was back on the chart this week after missing last week, sneaking on the chart on Wednesday at #10. Survivor returned strong at #5 for one day. Ghosts remained the CBS Thursday linuep's best-performing show, charting every day and peaking at #2. Lead-in Georgie & Mandy performed well, with three chart appearances and a #7 peak. Matlock charted twice, and peaked at #6. Elsbeth had a single chart appearance at #10. The Equalizer, Poppa's House, FBI: International, Hollywood Squares, NCIS: Sydney and SWAT all missed the chart entirely this week.
Note: As with Peacock, Paramount+'s top 10 chart updates throughout the day. For consistency, all data collection is done daily at 2 PM.
Max:
The top spot on Max is entirely unchanged from last week: The White Lotus on top Monday through Thursday, and The Pitt on top on Sunday, Friday and Saturday. Both shows remain top draws for Max through the week, with White Lotus never dropping below #2 on the chart and The Pitt only once dropping below #2. The show that briefly knocked it down was Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, which remained popular in its second week back, ranking between second and sixth on the chart. Fellow HBO talker Real Time with Bill Maher charted two days this week - once on Sunday, despite not airing last week, and once on Saturday, hitting a strong #3 on the chart. Max's animated DC series Harley Quinn looked decent this week, rising to a season's-best #3 peak and charting four days in all. International HBO productions The Eastern Gate and Coyotl: Hero and Beast both charted twice this week and peaked at #8. As always, reality series remained staples of the Max chart. Baylen Out Loud was the strongest of these, peaking at #3 and only once dropping out of the top five. TLC also debuted The Baldwins this week, starring actor Alec Baldwin and his family. The series paled in comparison to Baylen Out Loud, but still peaked at #6 and charted several days, which isn't all that common for TLC series outside of the 90 Day Fiancé franchise. Speaking of that franchise, it was a down week for the parent series, which charted four days this week and peaked at #5, after charting five days last week. Its spinoff, The Last Resort, peaked higher than it at #4, though it was off the chart after three days.
