Chart Toppers

Ryan ToysReview held onto its first-place spot on the U.S. chart for the fifth week in a row. Ryan’s online video outpost full of his playtime and unboxing footage dropped 5% in views on the week to take home more than 117.9 million views. In a kinda close, but still kinda far second place is WWE. The channel full of clips and behind-the-scenes footage from all things World Wrestling Entertainment also dropped 5% in views to slam down nearly 100.9 million views during the week.

Toy Freaks is in a close third place. The family vlog brought to dramatic heights dropped 9% to bottom out at a still-impressive almost 96.8 million views on the week. Not too far behind is Chainsmokers. The electro-pop duo ended the week down 4% with just about 89.8 million views.

And rounding out the Top 5 is FamilyFunPack. America’s favorite familial septet scored almost 88.5 million views in the week.

Top Gainers

The honor of one of our Top Gainers this week goes to CollegeHumor.

The YouTube outpost for a good amount of the IAC-owned comedy destination’s sketches, skits, and other online video offerings always racks up view counts in the several millions. This week was better than most, however, thanks to a particularly poignant and popular critique of the new iPhone 7. “The New iPhone is Just Worse” features comical impressions of Apple’a CEO Tim Cook and Apple’s Chief Design Officer Jon Ive, both of which voice numerous problems about Apple latest offering. The video helped CollegeHumor’s channel to a 63% week-over-week increase in views, more than 32.3 million views on the week, and the #37 spot on the U.S. chart.

Channel Distribution

The top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 2,523,181,097 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 Chainsmokers at #4.
  • BuzzFeed, Maker Studios, Movieclips, Studio71, WMG: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with BuzzFeed’s BuzzFeedVideo at #15, Maker’s Markiplier at #25, Movieclips’ Movieclips Trailers at #20, Studio71’s FamilyFunPack at #5, and WMG’s Fueled By Ramen at #11.
