Chart Toppers

Ryan ToysReview held onto its first-place position on the U.S. chart for an incredible 35th week in a row. Ryan’s self-titled YouTube channel destination showcasing his unboxing talents and playtime prowess jumped up 7% in its weekly view count to top out at more than 186.8 million views on the week. In a close-ish second place is Luis Fonsi. The Puerto Rican musical multi-hyphenate’s channel hopped up 14% in views to close out the week with nearly 158.3 million.

Very close behind in the #3 spot is WWE. World Wrestling Entertainment’s YouTube outpost dropped 7% of its weekly views to slam down more than 154.7 million views throughout the week. Next up in a distant fourth place is ToyScouter. The channel that’s emblematic of YouTube’s oddball adults-dressing-up-in-Disney-and-superhero-costume phenomena dipped 24% in views to take home just over 106.9 million.

And rounding out the Top 5 is Toy Freaks. The dramatized version of an unboxing channel and/or family vlog was up 4% in its weekly view count to close out the seven-day timeframe with nearly 103.9 million views.

Top Gainers

The honor of one of our Top Gainers this week goes to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.

CBS’s flagship, late night talk show has been a hit with television audiences ever since Donald Trump entered the White House. Clips uploaded from his TV program are gaining traction on YouTube, too. In the past week, Colbert has seen many politically-oriented uploads (and this Starbucks one) reach seven-figure view counts, pushing The Late Show‘s channel to a 167% week-over-week increase in views, nearly 32.7 million views on the week, and the #50 spot on the U.S. chart.

Channel Distribution

The top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 3,055,291,558 views. Here’s the distribution of a few of those channels by multi-channel network:

• VEVO: 16 channels in the U.S. Top 50, with Luis Fonsi the top-ranked channel of the network at #2.
• BuzzFeed, CBS, Maker Studios, Studio71: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with BuzzFeed’s BuzzFeed Video at #13, CBS’ Inside Edition at #49, Maker’s FGTeeV at #18, and Studio71’s FamilyFunPack at #14.
