It's been another busy week on streaming, with several new entries and the finales of multiple top performers across the streamers. Keep reading to see what was trending on Hulu, Disney+, Peacock, Paramount+ and Max for the last week.
Hulu:
A new entry topped the charts on Hulu this week, as Hulu original The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives returned for it second season. Most Hulu originals are weekly releases, particularly for their buzzier series, but this series dropped its entire second season this week, the same format used in season one. It debuted at #4 on the chart before rising to #1 the last two days of the week. Fellow Hulu original The Handmaid's Tale was also #1 on the chart for two days this week. 9-1-1 also led the way two days, one of only two ABC shows to lead the chart this week. 9-1-1 spent most of the week in the top ten, but nearly dropped off the chart on Friday before rebounding nicely the next day, after its finale was added to Hulu. The Rookie was the other ABC series that topped the chart this week, also airing its finale. It was the most stable of the big ABC shows, with #6 on the chart being its weakest point this week. American Idol, typically good for a #1 peak, didn't get there this week, instead peaking at #2 for two days. It nevertheless charted the entire week. Will Trent had a good week, remaining in the top ten the entire week, and peaking at #3. Bad Romance managed to get back on the chart for a single day at #14. Grey's Anatomy charted the entire week, peaking at #2 for two days. Doctor Odyssey was, an always, the weak link in that Thursday lineup, charting five days and peaking at #6. 20/20 charted two days this week, peaking at #14, after taking last week off for a Pope Leo special (which peaked at #10 and charted twice) and an episode of Bad Romance. Shark Tank, The $100,000 Pyramid, Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! Masters were the only ABC series that failed to chart this week. Daytime soap General Hospital charted six days in all, rising as high as #4. Fox's Next Level Chef was their best performer again, peaking at #4 on the chart and remaining on the chart for six days. Family Guy charted four days this week, which is an improvement, and it peaked at #7. Alert: Missing Persons Unit was on the chart three days this week, peaking at #5. The Cleaning Lady had its best chart showing go the season, managing to chart two days this week, peaking at #8. A TMZ Investigates special about Justin Bieber drew no interest in linear viewing, and it barely made an impact on streaming either, on the chart for one day at #12. Farmer Wants a Wife remained a fairly solid Hulu performer, charting six days this week, though it never rises all that high on the chart. Three different America's Most Wanted episodes aired this week, and not one cracked the chart, nor did The Simpsons, Krapopolis, or The Great North. Freeform's The Stolen Girl ended its run this week, charting the entire week and peaking at #4. Good American Family, which has been an excellent performer for Hulu through its run, finally slipped off the chart by the end of the week, having charted six days this week and peaked at #5.

Disney+:
May the Fourth may be long past us by now, but Star Wars still reigned supreme on Disney+ this week. on another week light with TV entries on the chart, two Star Wars series were among the only TV shows to make appearances on the chart this week. Andor was the more successful of the two. On the week of its series finale, Andor topped the chart twice, hitting #4 on the chart at its worst point. Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld charted five days this week, peaking at #3. It suddenly dropped off the chart on Friday, after charting at #6 the day before. Hulu original The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives also made an impact on the Disney+ chart, debuting at #4 and rising to #3 the next day. ABC News specials about Pope Leo and the Diddy trial also charted for a few days. The rest of the chart, though, was movies. Mufasa: The Lion King continued an odd run of rising to #1 on the chart and then disappearing from the chart just after, while Kung Fu Panda remained strong, hitting #1 twice. Likely boosted by the finale of its prequel series, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story closed out the week with two days at #1. Other films spending multiple days on the chart included Star Wars and its prequel trilogy, Kung Fu Panda 2, and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

Peacock:
It was another phenomenal week on streaming for long-running smash hit Law & Order: SVU, but the show was not the unrivaled #1 on Peacock for its finale week. Its performance on streaming remained very impressive, topping the chart for six days of the last week, but it was briefly surpassed by Peacock original Poker Face, which rose to #1 the day after a new episode was released. SVU and Poker Face spent the entire week as the top two series on the service, save for one day when Bravo's The Valley surpassed Poker Face to rank #2. SVU's fellow Law & Order series were not nearly as successful. Spinoff Organized Crime did continue to chart for most of the week, with five chart appearances this week, though most of its appearances were in the bottom half of the chart. On an encouraging note, it was noticeably higher this Saturday than last Saturday, indicating that perhaps it's set to have a better week ahead of it. Law & Order again failed to chart whatsoever. Dick Wolf's other franchise, the Chicagos, remained solid performers, though it was a below-average week for them for the most part, spending the first five days of the week mostly on the bottom half of the chart, with Chicago Med slipping as low as #10 on the chart. Grosse Pointe Garden Society, the only NBC scripted series still awaiting its fate this season, managed to break onto the chart for one day at #10, as it makes its argument for a second season on Peacock. Its lead-out, Dateline NBC, had an impressive showing by its own standards, logging a season's best three appearances on the chart, rising as high as #8 on the chart. Saturday Night Live again charted for one day, at #7. The Voice also charted this week, which it hadn't done in several weeks, charting a single day at #8. Found ended its run with an appearance on the chart at the end of the week at #10. Suits LA and Yes Chef were NBC's only series this week, besides the aforementioned Law & Order, not to chart. Peacock soap Days of Our Lives charted five days this week, peaking at #4. Bravo also maintained a strong presence on the Peacock charts this week, with Real Housewives of Atlanta, Below Deck Down Under, and Summer House all charting, in addition to previously-mentioned The Valley.

Paramount+:
It was a big week for Criminal Minds on Paramount+, as the CBS-turned Paramount+ original series aired its second episode of the season. The combination of a large (and popular) library of over 300 episodes and the release of new episodes has created a near-unstoppable force for Paramount+, and at a time when they truly need it, as most of the streamer's most popular shows come from CBS, a network that will air new episodes of just one show at a time this summer (first Raid the Cage - a Paramount+ flop - and then Big Brother). Criminal Minds was #1 for six days of the last week, blocking hits like Tracker, Survivor, and Georgie & Mandy from hitting #1. The only show to stop it was MobLand, which started the week at #1 and dipped as the week went on, charting six days in all. Several CBS shows exited the airwaves this week. Among them was Tracker, which peaked at #2 this week, and charted five days in all. Watson had its best showing on the chart, no doubt boosted by the lesser competition, as it charted two days this week, its best showing of the season. The Neighborhood ended the week before, but remained on the chart for six days of the last week. NCIS is always a presence on the chart, and remained so this week, peaking at #2 and continuing to chart all week. FBI peaked at #3 for the week, and charted twice, while FBI: Most Wanted charted for a single day at #8. Survivor did not reach #1 this week, but managed to chart every day this week, including peaking at #2. Breakout freshman Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage had a double-episode finale. It hit a new peak on the chart of #2, and charted five days this week in all, as the show continues to strengthen on streaming. Its typical lead-out, Ghosts, did not air this week, having aired its finale the week before, but still charted the entire week. SWAT aired its series finale - for real this time - and had its best showing of the season at #3. While it no longer has to face competition from Fire Country (or Blue Bloods), which no doubt eased its ability to chart so high, this is still an impressive way to go out for a show that missed the chart entirely for the first half of the season, and was still far from a reliable chart performer even in the second half of the season. FBI: International and The Amazing Race were the only series to miss the chart this week, with The Amazing Race's absence being particularly notable, as it charted last week, but failed to chart for its two-night finale. SkyMed, a Canadian series that airs in the United States as a Paramount+ original, dropped its entire third season this week. It debuted at #6 on Thursday and has dropped one spot each day since. RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars had an all-around down performance this week, charting one day at #9.

Max:
It was another big week for The Last of Us, as HBO's adaptation of the juggernaut video game continued to rank #1 on Max (soon to be HBO Max once again) through the entire week. Behind it for much of the week was Hacks, which has gained momentum on the chart, ranking #2 for five days this week. It dropped as low as #7 this week, but rose back to nearly the top of the chart by the next day, as it marked its best week of the season. HBO comedy The Righteous Gemstones ended its run the previous week, but remained a top performer for much of the week, spending four days in the top half of the chart, and the entire week on the chart. Nathan Fielder series The Rehearsal charted the entire week, having its best peak of the season at #3 on Tuesday, slipping as low as #8. HBO talkers Last Week Tonight and Real Time also continued to chart. Last Week Tonight had a below-average showing this week, charting five days when it typically charts through the entire week, though it peaked at #2 on the chart. Real Time had its typical performance, charting three days and peaking at #3. Max travelogue series Conan O'Brien Must Go charted four days this week, peaking at #3 for its second of three weeks on the air. New Max drama Duster, reuniting JJ Abrams with Lost start Josh Holloway, debuted at #6 on the chart, and rose to #2 the next day. Several shows outside of the HBO/Max umbrella, including TLC's 90 Day Fiancé and Polyfamily and ID's Toxic, also charted several times this week.
