Chart Toppers

Ryan ToysReview held onto its first-place position on the U.S. chart for an unbelievable 34th week. Ryan’s eponymous YouTube channel featuring the pre-K’s unboxing talents and playtime footage hopped up 13% on the week to take home nearly 174 million views. In a still-close second place is WWE. Your YouTube destination for all your World Wrestling Entertainment clips, interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage jumped up 10% to score almost 166.7 million views on the week.

Up next in the #3 spot is still ToyScouter. The channel that’s fully embracing YouTube’s oddball adults-dressing-up-in-Disney-and-superhero-costume phenomena was up 8% to amass more than 139.9 million views throughout the week. In fourth place is Luis Fonsi. The Puerto Rican singer, songwriter, and actor’s channel jumped up 50% to top out at almost 139 million views.

And rounding out the Top 5 is Chainsmokers. The poppy DJ duo was down 6% to bottom out at over 107.4 million views during the week.

Top Gainers

The honor of one of our Top Gainers this week goes to Saturday Night Live.

NBC’s flagship, late night, sketch comedy show has done well on YouTube ever since Alec Baldwin introduced his Donald Trump impression. This week was better than the one before, however, thanks to more political satire, comical impressions, and a great host and musical guest. Jimmy Fallon’s return to the SNL stage as host alongside a solo Harry Styles musical guest helped the channel to a 46% week-over-week increase in views, more than 53.9 million views on the week, and the #25 spot on the U.S. chart.

Channel Distribution

The top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 3,101,557,145 views. Here’s the distribution of a few of those channels by multi-channel network:

• VEVO: 15 channels in the U.S. Top 50, with Luis Fonsi the top-ranked channel of the network at #4.
• BuzzFeed, Maker Studios, Movieclips, NBCU, Studio71: 2 channels each in the Top 50, with BuzzFeed’s BuzzFeed Video at #14, Maker’s FGTeeV at #22, Movieclips’ Movieclips at #8, NBCU’s Saturday Night Live at #25, and Studio71’s FamilyFunPack at #12.
