Chart Toppers

Justin Bieber is back in the #1 spot on the U.S. chart after a brief one-week hiatus. The Bieb’s YouTube channel popped up 9% in views to top out just shy of 174.9 million views and take home first place for the 17th time in 18 weeks. In second place is Ryan ToysReview. A solid week by Bieber and a 4% dip in views caused the channel headlined by six-year-old Ryan to drop back down to the #2 spot despite having scored a very impressive almost 155.3 million views.

In third place is WWE. World Wrestling Entertainment’s YouTube destination took home more than 138.8 million views in the week. FamilyFunPack is next up again in the #4 spot. The American family of seven with a steady supply of home videos ended the week with more than 135.8 million views.

And rounding out the Top 5 is The Ellen Show. The YouTube home of Ellen DeGeneres’ eponymous daytime talk show closed out the week up 11% in views to top out at 123 million of them.

Top Gainers

The honor of one of our Top Gainers in the U.S. this week goes to JesseAndMike.

The YouTube channel that’s home to the comedic shorts of a pair of very funny brothers didn’t necessarily have an incredible week-over-week views increase on YouTube, but it did break into the Top 50 for the first time ever. A steady supply of weekly uploads mocking the type of fare that’s steadily uploaded to YouTube (like the channel’s “World’s Biggest Mole!” video) gave JesseAndMike the boost it needed to make its first appearance on the chart. The channel was witness to a 17% week-over-week increase in views, just about 30.5 million views on the week, and the #49 spot on the U.S. chart.

Channel Distribution

The top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 2,728,832,557 views. Here’s the distribution of a few of those channels by multi-channel network:

VEVO: 17 channels in the U.S. Top 50, with Justin Bieber the highest-ranked channel of the network at #1.
Maker Studios: 5 channels in the Top 50, with HobbyKidsTV at #14.
BuzzFeed, Movieclips: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with BuzzFeed’s BuzzFeedVideo at #11 and Movieclips’ Movieclips Trailers at #28.
