Chart Toppers

Justin Bieber maintained his spot on the top of the U.S. chart for the sixth week in a row thanks to the seemingly perennial popularity of the music video releases associated with his latest studio album Purpose. Bieber fans and the world at large viewed videos on his YouTube channel more than 172.8 million times in the week. In a distant second place is still Ryan ToysReview. The biggest family-friendly toy and unboxing channel in the U.S. ended the week with nearly 87.9 million views.

FamilyFunPack is up next in the #3 spot. The online video exploits of this American family of seven racked up more than 79.6 million views on the week. WWE is next up in fourth place. The YouTube home for clips and highlights from World Wrestling Entertainment dipped 14% in views to bottom out at more than 79.3 million views during the week.

And rounding out the Top 5 is FunToyzCollector. The channel formerly known as DisneyCollectorBR (that was also the first breakout channel in the toy unboxing trend) dropped 23% in views and amassed almost 73.2 million in the week.

Top Gainers

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

The American entertainment company that’s in possession of the DC Comics library had a great week on YouTube thanks to the second official trailer release of one of its most anticipated upcoming feature films. The three-minute “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice – Official Trailer” quickly racked up an eight-figure view count to help the Warner Bros. Pictures channel to a 51% week-over-week increase in views, more than 30.6 million views on the week, and the #25 spot on the worldwide chart.

Channel Distribution

The top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 2,493,830,896 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: 4 channels in the Top 50, with DisneyCarToys at #12.
BuzzFeed, Collective Digital Studio, Movieclips, NBCU, OhMyGenius, Warner Bros.: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with BuzzFeed’s BuzzFeedVideo at #7, Collective’s FamilyFunPack at #3, Fullscreen’s PopularMMOs at #14, OhMyGenius’ Kids Channel at #36, and Warner Bros. The Ellen Show at #6.
