It's been another busy week on streaming. After an onslaught of debuts last week, it was a week with few debuts, with most of the top performers from last week remaining dominant this week. Keep reading too see how those new debuts managed to hold up in week two, as well as how some of the other top performers from this season continue to perform.
Hulu:
The only streamer of the five covered in this column to have a major premiere this week was Hulu, which launched a new season of reality hit The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The popular series returned just six months after season two was released, and quickly rose to the top of the Hulu chart. It entered at #2 and then spent the next two days after that at #1. It wasn't the only Hulu original to enjoy time at the top this week. All's Fair was #1 more than any other show, spending three days at #1. That was the same as last week, though it is notable that it dropped lower this week than at any point last week, slipping to #9 on Saturday. Murdaugh: Death in the Family hit #1 for the first time in a few weeks, spending one day there. Grey's Anatomy was the show most impacted by the return of the Mormon Wives. It went from three days at #1 to just one, though it's still impressive for it to continuously out-perform its younger Thursday night contemporaries. 9-1-1 peaked at #3 this week, and charted all week. 9-1-1: Nashville also charted the entire week, peaking at #4. All three Thursday night ABC dramas are now off again until January. Dancing with the Stars had a solid enough week, with six appearances and a #6 peak, but it didn't chart at all on Thursday, when it would regularly have its best performance of the week. Though a weaker performer than the hit Dancing, The Golden Bachelor faced a similar issue. It peaked at #11 this week on Saturday, when it would usually have its best performance (and often only appearance) on Friday. 20/20 charted five days this week and peaked at #3. Abbott Elementary, which did not air a new episode this week, charted four days and peaked at #9. High Potential has been off the air for several weeks, but still managed to chart five days this week. General Hospital charted six days this week, peaking at a strong #2. Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and Shark Tank were ABC's only shows not to chart this week. Neither are a surprise. Doc remained the best performer on Fox. The medical drama charted all week and peaked at #3. Bob's Burgers charted three days and peaked at #6. Murder in a Small Town managed to chart twice this week, peaking at #8. The Floor also stuck around for two days, peaking at #10. 99 to Beat charted one day at #11. Hell's Kitchen has begun to clearly outpace Special Forces at this point in the season. It charted four days and peaked at #8, while Special Forces charted three and peaked at #12. Universal Basic Guys, The Simpsons, Krapopolis, Name That Tune and Celebrity Weakest Link all failed to chart at all. Hulu original Reasonable Doubt peaked at #3 among seven chart appearances this week.

Disney+:
It was another week on Disney+ dominated by movies. Two of the summer's high-profile Disney theatrical releases shared the top spot for the entire week. The Fantastic Four: First Steps debuted on Disney+ the previous week, and remained #3 for the first four days this week. Freakier Friday then debuted halfway through this week, and has been #1 since then. Disney+ is in a transitionary period between Halloween and Christmas, where holiday films are still sporadically appearing, but not completely dominating. This week, Dia de los Muertos cartoon The Book of Life charted four days, while Christmas film The Santa Clause 3 charted for six days and Noelle charted for one. New Disney+ original film A Very Jonas Christmas Movie entered at #2 on Saturday. Other films on the chart with no holiday connections included Thunderbolts, Life-Size, and Avatar: The Way of Water. Several Hulu original series graced the chart this week as well. All's Fair has been on the chart since its debut, and peaked at #4 this week. Murdaugh: Death in the Family charted one day. The Secret Lives of Mormons Wives has charted two days so far, peaking at #3 - the highest of any series. Chad Powers charted four days. Disney+ original series Zootopia+ returned to the chart as hype builds for the new Zootopia film, charting four days in all.

Peacock:
It was a clean sweep at #1 this week for Peacock's miniseries All Her Fault. The series is among the most successful new series launches on Peacock in recent memory, not leaving the #1 spot since its debut. Plenty of NBC shows joined it on the chart this week. Happy's Place charted four days this week, peaking at #7. New sitcom Stumble made its first appearance on Peacock this week, charting two days and peaking at #8. Dateline NBC was down to just a single appearance at #10. Saturday Night Live charted one day at #6. St. Denis Medical continued to perform exceptionally well on Peacock.

It peaked at #3 and dropped as low as #6. Chicago Fire peaked at #4 and sliced as low as #8. Chicago Med only charted five days this week, peaking at #6. Law & Order: SVU was among the best performers of any NBC Show this week, charting twice at #2 and spending the entire week on the chart. Law & Order was the only NBC original to miss the chart entirely this week. Peacock reality series Married at First Sight charted six days and peaked at #2. Several Bravo series also charted, including Real Housewives of Potomac, Orange County, and Salt Lake City, as well as the Housewives Wife Swap spinoff.

Paramount+:
Tulsa King and South Park remained the top offerings on Paramount+ this week, but a new show managed to break through at #1 for the first time this season. Tulsa King and South Park both managed to top the chart three times. That's the worst South Park showing of this extremely stretched-out season, and the best Tulsa King showing. In between their runs at #1 was NCIS, which hit #1 for the first time during its current season, after a crossover with NCIS: Origins. Origins, which often fails to chart at all, charted only day again this week, but at a far stronger #5 position. The goodwill for the franchise didn't carry over to Sydney, which remains entirely MIA. Tulsa King was not the only Taylor Sheridan show on the chart. Mayor of Kingstown peaked at #2 and charted all week, though it was down to #9 by the end of the week. Landman isn't back until Sunday, but interest in the new season drove it back onto the chart or three days this week, always at #10. Tracker charted five days this week, peaking at #2. The Neighborhood had a nice showing, charting three days this week, though it only peaked at #9. For the first time in its run, DMV made the chart. It peaked at #8 this week, better than The Neighborhood, though it only charted one day. Still, that's better than anything Poppa's House ever did on Paramount+. FBI charted two days this week and peaked higher than the other Monday shows, at #4. Survivor charted one day and also peaked at #4. Ghosts remains the highlight of the Thursday night lineup, charting all week and peaking at #2. Georgie & Mandy continues to rise on the charts, this week charting at #6 for its single appearance. Matlock also only charted one day this week, but it peaked at #5 on that day. Elsbeth was down from last week, with a #9 peak. It was a week of improvement for Sheriff Country, which charted three days this week and peaked at #2, better than last week in both regards. Fire Country was knocked from last week's #2 peak by its spinoff, rising as high as #3 this week. Like Sheriff, it also charted three days. Boston Blue remains the weakest Friday night show on Paramount+, charting one day this week and peaking at #7. The Road, Watson, and The Amazing Race were the only CBS shows to miss the chart, along with the aforementioned NCIS: Sydney.

HBO Max:
It was another clean sweep on HBO Max this week, as IT: Welcome to Derry remained firmly perched atop their streaming chart. The prequel to the 2010s adaptations of Stephen King's horror classic has been a strong performer through the first three weeks, never leaving the top spot, though it notably lacks any major competition from any HBO Max originals. This week, its most prominent competitor was Adult Swim cartoon Smiling Friends, which had a great week, spending five straight days at #2. It knocked HBO comedy The Chair Company down to #3 for most of the week, though Chair Company did get one day at #2, as did HBO talk series Real Time with Bill Maher. HBO's newest comedy, IN Love LA, continue to look decent enough, peaking at #3 and spending most of the week at #5, never slipping below that spot. Fionna & Cake, the HBO Max spinoff of Cartoon Network favorite Adventure Time, spent our days on the chart this week, peaking at #3. Last Week Tonight charted all week and peaked at #4. HBO miniseries Task departed the chart a few days into this week, three weeks after its finale. Food Network's Holiday Baking Championship majorly improved this week, charting six days and peaking at #6. Harry Potter: Wizards of Baking also made the chart this week after missing last week, though it's still a far cry from its season one performance, when it constantly charted for nearly its entire run and nearly topped the chart several times. HBO Max sports docuseries Alex vs ARod charted one day again this week, this time at #6. Other unscripted entries on the chart included Discovery's Gold Rush, TLC's Sister Wives, Baylen Out Loud and 90 Day Fiancé series, and Food Network's Tournament of Champions: All-Star Christmas.
