Chart Toppers

Now that the previously reported YouTube bugs affecting the site’s metrics have been squashed, we’re back to our regular programming.

Ryan ToysReview held onto its first-place position on the U.S. chart for the twenty-fifth week in a row. Five-year-old Ryan’s video home replete with videos of him unboxing and playing with toys dipped 9% in views to take home more than 164.1 million on the week. In a distantish second place is WWE. World Wrestling Entertainment’s YouTube destination dropped 11% in views, but still slammed home over 121.1 million views during the week.

Shakira is next up in the #3 spot. The Columbia-born, US-residing musical multi-hyphenate’s home on YouTube dipped 19% to bottom out at just about 92.2 million views in the week. In fourth place is another international pop star. Katy Perry‘s channel climbed up 19% in views to close out the week at over 86.7 million views.

And rounding out the Top 5, once again, is FamilyFunPack. America’s favorite family of seven scored just shy of 85.4 million views throughout the week.

Top Gainers

The honor of one of our Top Gainers this week goes to The Dr. Phil Show.

The YouTube home of CBS’ syndicated daytime talk show Dr. Phil had a great week on the world’s largest video-sharing site thanks to the return of a guest who became a full-fledged internet meme.

Danielle Bregoli was a seemingly troubled 13-year-old with an attitude and car-stealing problem when her mother brought her onto Dr. Phil McGraw’s television show in hopes of taming her wild side. It didn’t quite work. Wehn Bregoli grew tired of the audience laughing at her throughout the taping, she yelled out “Catch me outside, how about that?” with a thick, kinda slippery Cajun accent, which made her words sound more like “Cash me ousside, howbow dah.” The internet was instantly obsessed. About five months later, McGraw invited Bregoli and her mom onto his show again to see what – if anything – changed since their previous talk (and a quick stint at Turn-About Ranch). Thanks to the teenager’s newfound celebrity, a lot of people tuned in.

A clip from Dr. Phil’s follow-up interview racked up a view count in the multimillions, helping his show’s channel to its first appearance on the chart, a 43% week-over-week increase in views, almost 50.6 million views on the week, and the #22 spot on the U.S. chart.

Channel Distribution

The top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 2,818,098,084 views. Here’s the distribution of a few of those channels by multi-channel network:

  • VEVO: 18 channels in the U.S. Top 50, with Shakira the top-ranked channel of the network at #3.
  • Maker Studios: 3 channels in the Top 50, with FGTeeV at #23.
  • BroadbandTV, BuzzFeed, CBS, Movieclips, NBCU, Studio71: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with BBTV’s WorldStarHipHop at #8, BuzzFeed’s BuzzFeed Video at #39, CBS’ The Dr. Phil Show at #22, Movieclips’ Movieclips at #14, NBCU’s Saturday Night Live at #11, and Studio71’s FamilyFunPack at #5.
