It was a silent week, holy week, as Christmas left the streamers with few originals and even fewer debuts, allowing some of the top performers to remain dominant. Keep reading to see how things shook out on Hulu, Disney+, Peacock, Paramount+ and HBO Max this week!
Hulu:
Just two shows topped the charts this week on Hulu: Next Level Baker and The Kardashians. Next Level Baker was #1 at the start of the week, and then slipped after that, though it remained a top five e entry or most of the week. The Kardashians was #2 to kick the week off and #1 era era other day. There weren't many other shows airing original episodes this week, so the chart wasn't terribly competitive this week. General Hospital peaked at #2, and charted every day. The Disney Parks Magical Christmas Day Parade, which aired on ABC on Christmas morning, entered at #2 and was down to #4 the next day. Percy Jackson & the Olympians continues to chart pretty well on Hulu, charting all week and peaking at #3. Fellow ABC Christmas special Kevin Costner Presents: The First Christmas remained on the chart all week, peaking at #4 on Christmas Day. Family Guy's Christmas episode was released a month ago, but the animated sitcom was back in the upper echelons of the chart this week, peaking at #5 and charting each day. FX's A Christmas Carol, from back in 2019, charted twice, and Prep & Landing broke through for a single day. Bob's Burgers charted all week despite not airing, and ABC's 20/20 and Hulu's All's Fair and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives also charted all week. Abbott Elementary and The floor both charted four days. The long-ended Fox drama Fringe was back on the chart for five days this week, and Hulu original Tell Me Lies spent two days on the chart.

Disney+:
Taylor Swift ended her residency on Disney+ by hitting a high note. Her End of an Era docuseries swept the #1 spot on the streamer this week, with viewers delivering the pop megastar a Christmas gift. The domination of the music doc denied Percy Jackson & the Olympians a return to the top spot this week, as the fantasy adaptation spent thew entire week at #2. Much of the rest of the chart was taken up by holiday favorites. The 2019 FX adaptation of A Christmas Carol, a perennial favorite for subscribers of both Hulu and Disney+, spent the entire week on the chart, ranging from fifth to tenth place. The Santa Clauses, the two-season TV spinoff of the beloved Tim Allen holiday film franchise, also spent the week on the chart, peaking at #6 after making a single appearance on the chart last week. The holiday-themed short-run Fox Gordon Ramsay series Next Level Baker charted the whole week as well, peaking at #6. There were also a few Mickey Mouse Christmas series on the chart, as well as a Trolls holiday special. Christmas programming wasn't the only thing on the chart this week besides Disney+'s two ongoing hits. The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball dropped another twenty-episode season and has charted at #4 since its debut. It's a Hulu original, but it has performed far better on Disney+ than it has on Hulu, where it has yet to make a single chart appearance. Bluey also charted for nearly the entire week, consistently occupying the #3 spot since hitting it on Monday. Inside the NBA charted one day this week after the traditional NBA Christmas Day games. On the film chart, it was a winter wonderland. Holiday classic Home Alone remained at #1 all week, while Home Alone 2: Lost in New York dislodged The Santa Clause from the #2 spot towards the end of the week, after The Santa Clause had spent several weeks there. Also charting all week were The Santa Clause 2 and Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas, while Christmas Vacation, The Polar Express and the 2009 adaptation of A Christmas Carol charted five days, Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas and A Christmas Story charted three times, and Muppet Christmas Carol charted twice. Outside of Christmas movies, Avatar: The Way of Water and Avatar both charted throughout the week - five and three times, respectively.

Peacock:
Peacock looked like Bravo+ for much of this week, but a very unexpected scripted show actually managed to top the chart for the majority off the week: Supernatural. The long-running CW hit entered at #9 on Monday and rose up the ranks of the chart the next few days, finally hitting #1 on Wednesday and not leaving thus far. It's far from what you'd expect to be topping Peacock's chart right now, but it's not unusual for ended series from many years ago to chart strong on Peacock (think of previous chart entries like The Office, Roseanne, or Three's Company), and Supernatural is practically modern in compared to some of those shows. Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Married to Medicine also topped the chart this week, during a week with almost no competition from NBC, and minimal competition from Peacock, too. Bel-Air ended weeks ago, but remained on the chart all week, beginning the week at #4 and ending at #8. The streamer did debut new drama The Copenhagen Test on December 27, but brand-new Peacock originals rarely chart all that strong on their very first day, so next week will be the major test for how that show premiered (All Her Fault, a major hit for Peacock, similarly entered at the bottom of the chart before ranking #1 for weeks). NBC's only chart entries this week were Dateline NBC, which charted all week, and a few comedies. Saturday Night Live had its strongest showing of the season, with three days on the chart and a #4 peak. Stumble, Happy's Place and St. Denis Medical each charted one day, charting right beside one another at #7, #8 , and #9, respectively. The rest of the chart was all Bravo. In addition to the shows that topped the chart, Vanderpump Rules, Below Deck Mediterranean, and Real Housewives of Potomac and Salt Lake City also spent time on the chart, with most charting for the majority of the week.

Paramount+:
It was the start of what is sure to be a very dull period on the paramount+ chart, as CBS's series entered an extended hiatus, leaving Landman with practically zero competition. The show is usually #1 regardless, but it had nothing in its way to even try to stop it from dominating that top spot this time. Mayor of Kingstown was what really benefitted from the lack of competition, spending most of the week at #2 on the chart, and only slipping to #3 at its worst point. South Park and Tulsa King both charted high despite ending their seasons weeks ago. The rest of the chart was a collection of some of CBS's most popular series on streaming. Fire Country and Sheriff Country remained a bit above-average at the start of the week due to the proximity to their midseason finales, but Fire Country charted all week regardless. NCIS and Ghosts peaked as high as Fire Country, with all peaking at #5 and charting all week. FBI and Tracker charted one day. Paramount+ original Criminal Minds was back on the chart or most of this week, while Everybody Loves Raymond also continued to chart.

HBO Max:
It was nearly a clean sweep at the top of the chart for sports drama Heated Rivalry, which aired its season one finale this week and had what was by far its most impressive showing on HBO Max yet. While that was no doubt aided by the reduction in competition, the series has also been building online buzz over the course of its first season, providing the streamer with a high-profile hit to help carry them through until their January premieres. The only show to interrupt Heated Rivalry's stint at the top was IT: Welcome to Derry, which returned to #1 for a single day this week, spending the rest of the week at #2. Heated Rivalry wasn't the only high-profile series ending its run this week on HBO Max, as HBO comedy I Love LA ended its first season as well. That series has had a solid run, but never made as much as an impact as Heated Rivalry or fellow Sunday night shows IT and The Chair Company. It peaked at #3 this week, down from last week's peak, and spent six days this week in the top five, the same as last week. Adventure Time: Fionna & Cake was one of the few other HBO (Max) originals airing this week, and it performed pretty well. It charted four days and peaked at #3, its best showing of the season. HBO's Hard Knocks charted three days and peaked at #6. It's Florida, Man had easily its best showing of its second season, charting almost every day this week, only missing the chart on Christmas. It peaked at #4, and ended the week at #6. French drama The Seduction made two appearances on the chart this week. Mad Men continued its strong run, managing to both begin and end the week at #3 after briefly faltering and slipping as low as #6 this week. Food Network's Holiday Baking Championship also ended its run this week, and it did so on a low note, only charting three days and peaking at #6. The Magnolia Network had a rare entry on the chart this week with Fixer Upper: Colorado Mountain House, which spent three days on the chart this week, peaking at #7. Other unscripted cable entries this week included Discovery's Gold Rush and TLC's 90 Day Fiancé franchise and Baylen Out Loud.
