It was another week with several premieres on streaming, as most broadcast shows continued their seasons and several hit streaming shows also continued. Keep reading to see how the new entires stacked up against the ongoing top series.
Hulu:
Broadcast took somewhat of a backseat this week on Hulu, as streaming original Tell Me Lies became the strongest show on the service this week, with three days at #1 and nearly a full week in the top five, improving its performance from the first week. New FX drama The Beauty, from Ryan Murphy, also looked strong, topping the chart on Friday after entering at #8 after a partial day of availability. It was down to #4 on Saturday, still a solid showing that put it in the company of Murphy's other ongoing series. Two broadcast shows reached the top of the charts this week: ABC 10 stalwarts Grey's Anatomy and the Rookie. Grey's was again #1 for both the first and last day of the week, while The Rookie was down to a single day at #1, which is still a solid showing for it. ABC in general had another solid week. Will Trent peaked at #4 and charted all week, while High Potential failed to top the chart at all this week, but still spent several days at a #2 peak, and the entire week in the top five. It's the only series that can brag about that. Abbott Elementary declined from last week, charting all week but peaking at #6. Shifting Gears continues to decline, down to a #13 peak and charting only two days. 9-1-1 peaked at #2 and charted all week, as it continues to underperform fellow Thursday shows Grey's Anatomy. It still beats out its spinoff, 9-1-1: Nashville, which charted six days this week and peaked at #3. That one day at #3 was its only day in the top five this week. 20/20 peaked at #3 and charted five days, and daytime soap General Hospital charted five days and peaked at #2. Dirty Talk and Shark Tank were ABC's only this week series that failed to chart at all. On Fox, it was business as usual. Doc and Best Medicine remained their top performers. Doc peaked at #4 and Best Medicine peaked at #6, and both series charted the entire week. Best Medicine had been ahead of Doc at the start of the week, but Doc pulled ahead mid-week and remained so for the remainder of the week. The Masked Singer continued to decline, and charted only one day at #11. Fear Factor: House of Fear looked much better than its lead-in, charting all week, peaking at #5, and never dropping out of the top ten. Hell's Kitchen charted five days and peaked at #6. Animal Control and Going Dutch both failed to chart at all.

Disney+:
It was a fairly underwhelming finale week for Percy Jackson & the Olympians, with the series only topping the Disney+ chart once as it bid farewell, doing so the day after its finale. The really of the week, it was parked firmly at #3 on the chart, being mostly outpaced by reality entries, as well as the new entry in the Ryan Murphy-Verse. Fear Factor: House of Fear remained a power player on Disney+, with three days at #1 - the most of any series this week. It never dipped below second place on the chart, an impressive showing for a Fox unscripted show. Pole to Pole with Will Smith, from National Geographic, managed one day at #1, and charted in the top five all week, a stark contrast to its fading performance on Hulu. The week ended with FX's The Beauty at #1 for the last two days of the week. the Ryan Murphy creation premiered this week with three episodes and entered the chart at #4 before rising to the top. Broadcast shows maintained a presence on the chart, with High Potential being the highlight outside of Fear Factor, charting all week and peaking at #5. Best Medicine charted six days and peaked at #7, while 9-1-1: Nashville (the only other broadcast show on the chart) spent a single day in the top ten. Hulu original Tell Me Lies spent all week in the top ten. A collection of animated kids shows also charted, including Phineas & Ferb offshoot Agent P Under C, hey AJ, Zootopia+, and Spidey and His Amazing Friends. Taylor Swift: The End of an Era returned to the chart for three days this week. On the film chart, we finally had a bit of movement. Iron: Ares remains firmly at #1, but the Avatar films began to slip a bit, making way for some new entries towards the top, including High School Musical (celebrating its 20th anniversary this year), Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Disneyland Handcrafted, and Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere, all of which spent a single day at #2. The Princess and the Frog was another major notable new entry on the chart this week, while recent strong entries like Freakier Friday, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Thunderbolts, and the Avengers films began to either slip on the chart or drop off entirely.

Peacock:
The denomination of The Traitors was briefly interrupted this week, as new Soviet-era spy thriller Ponies managed to displace it at #1 for a single day towards the beginning of the week. It stayed towards the top for much of the week, before ending the week at #5, its first time out of the top two since premiering a week earlier. The Traitors thus had six days at #1, which is still an improvement over this point in the season last year. Many NBC series charted this week, but not all of them were able to crack the chart. Law & Order: SGU remained a highlight of the network's offering, peaking at #3 and charting all week. However, The Hunting Party had another solid week on the chart, spending three days at #3, making it the week's best-charting NBC series. Chicago PD spent five days on the chart and peaked at #5, while Chicago Fire was on the chart for four days and peaked at #6. As always, Chicago Med was the weakest link, charting two days at #10. Dateline NBC charted three days and peaked at #3. Saturday Night Live was on the chart for a single day at #7. St. Denis Medical did not air this week, but still charted for one day. The same could not be said for Happy's Place and Stumble, which failed to chart despite having aired. Also failing to chart was Law & Order, which remains the weakest link of Dick Wolf's NBC series. Love Island All Stars returned this week and charted five days, peaking at #5. That's a clear decline from the most recent season of Love Island USA, but still a decent debut for the UK series. Bravo's Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Salt Lake City and Potomac, Below Deck Mediterranean, and Vanderpump Rules all charted this week as well, with RHOBH charting the highest of the group, reaching #2.

It was a fairly exciting week on Paramount+, with the chart finally shaking up slightly after weeks of stagnation. This was not represented at the top of the chart, as Landman remained fairly at #1 for the entire week as it ended its second season. It's the first time this year - but not this season - that Landman has accomplished that feat. South Park had been able to push past it in recent weeks and reach #1, but not this week, and the crude cartoon was #2 for the entire week. A strong new docuseries has been at #3 on the chart since its debut. Handsome Devil: Charming Killer, which chronicled the case of a convicted murderer who found a cult following online, has been a solid entry for Paramount+, outperforming most of their recent true crime miniseries. Star Trek: Starfleet Academy continued a shaky run with only two days on the chart this week, peaking at #6. Paramount+'s new oft-promoted partnership with the UFC began this week with a match on January 24, which peaked at #6. Original miniseries Girl Taken popped back on the chart for two days this week. Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown both charted the entire week, long after wrapping their seasons, as did Criminal Minds. NCIS was the only ongoing CBS series to chart the entire week, but the long-ended Everybody Loves Raymond also joined it the whole week. Ghosts charted twice and Survivor charted one day. The King of Queens managed to return to the chart for a single day.

HBO Max:
The Pitt's domination of HBO Max was short-lived. While the series remained a strong entry this week, it dropped from seven days at #1 to just three, as a new entry into the Game of Thrones franchise took the top spot for the majority of this week. An abnormally short entry in the GOT Universe, the roughly 40-minute, six-episode series A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms entered strong this week, with four days atop the chart, before ending the week with two days at #2. The Pitt was #1 all three days that
Knight was not #1, and was #2 the days it was. Considering the strong cultural footprint of Game of Thrones, the fact that The Pitt was able to keep up with it as well as it did is a sign of just how strong of a show it is. Heated Rivalry has begun to cool off a bit, now that we're about a month out from its finale. It started the week at #2, but dropped a bit as time went on, down to #5 mid-week. It rose a bit after that, though, and ended the week at #3. Industry dropped this week, charting only three days and peaking at #4. Also declining this week was Task, which had a recent chart resurgence that ended this week by dropping out of the top ten by Wednesday. The hype remains alive for Euphoria, which charted all week and peaked at #4. New HBO documentary series Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man, focusing on the life and career of the beloved Oscar-winning director, charted two days at #8. Also charting were several unscripted cable series, including TLC's 90 Day Fiancé series and 1000-lb. Sisters, ID's People Magazine Investigates, and Discovery's Gold Rush.
