Chart Toppers
Ryan ToysReview held onto its first-place position at the top of the U.S. chart for the third week in a row. Titular four-year-old Ryan’s online video library of playtime footage dropped 3% in its weekly view count, but still scored more than 122 million views on the week. In second place is WWE. World Wrestling Entertainment’s home on the world’s largest video sharing site dipped 7% to end the week with over 108.7 million views.
Toy Freaks is still in the #3 spot. The dramatized version of a family vlog dipped 10% in views to take home nearly 104.3 million views during the week. Justin Bieber is next up in fourth place. The international pop star’s weekly view count took a 2% hit to close out the week with more than 87.6 million views.
And rounding out the Top 5 is Calvin Harris. The Scottish DJ’s home on YouTube dropped 3% of its weekly views to bottom out at a still impressive 78.6 million views in the week.
Top Gainers
The honor of one of our Top Gainers this week goes to the The Late Late Show with James Corden.
James Corden’s late night CBS talk show had a great week on YouTube thanks to another installment of its Carpool Karaoke series featuring an enduring pop star. Britney Spears rode shotgun with Corden and singed along with him to some of her songs between some friendly and familial chit chat. The video unsurprisingly quickly amassed an eight-figure view count and helped The Late Late Show‘s channel to a 238% week-over-week increase in views, almost 51.2 million views on the week, and the #16 spot on the U.S. chart.
Channel Distribution
The top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 2,415,102,012 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 Justin Bieber the highest-ranked channel of the network at #4.
BuzzFeed, Maker Studios, Studio71: 3 channels each in the Top 50, with BuzzFeed’s BuzzFeed Video at #7, Maker Studios’ Markiplier at #17, and Studio71’s FamilyFunPack at #19..
Movieclips, WMG: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with Movieclips’ Movieclips Trailers at #24 and WMG’s Fueled By Ramen at #8.
