‘Adolescence’ Surges Up the Streaming Chart, Knocking ‘Reacher’ Out of the Top 3

Mike White’s third season of “The White Lotus” has embraced the power of threes, and over on the Samba TV Weekly Wrap’s streaming charts, that pattern is impossible to miss. Three platforms, HBO / Max, Paramount+, and Amazon Prime Video, have hit gold with three series that continue their run in the Samba TV Weekly Wrap streaming Top 10: “The White Lotus,” “1923,” and “Reacher.”

That means “The White Lotus” tops the chart for the fifth consecutive week, followed by “1923.” The two series have been firmly lodged at the top of the chart for several weeks now, proving to be massive late-winter hits – and showing the strength of the one-episode-per-week model for their respective platforms, Max and Paramount+. The third season of “Reacher,” meanwhile, is bumped down a spot to miss what would’ve been its fourth week at No. 3. Snatching the third slot is “Adolescence” on Netflix. The British drama about incel culture and teen violence moved up five spots from last week. 

The next few entries on the chart belong to Netflix, starting with three chart debuts. No. 5 is “Den of Thieves 2: Pantera.” The heist film hit theaters in January and made its way onto Netflix this past week. Up next is “The Twister: Caught in the Storm,” a documentary about a tornado that ripped through Joplin, Missouri in 2011. No. 7 is “The Residence,” a murder mystery drama series set in the White House and starring Uzo Aduba of “Orange is the New Black.”

“Moana 2” breaks up the Netflix run in its second week on the chart since being added to Disney+. Closing out the Top 10 is a pair of critically panned movies that slid down the chart this week. “The Electric State” falls four slots to No. 9, while “Kraven: The Hunter” goes from No. 5 to No. 10.

Music remains the dominant force on linear, with three of the top four programs dedicated to performing. Topping the chart is “Opry 100: A Live Celebration.” The tribute to the country music institution featured performances from multiple generations of country (and country-influenced) performers, including Alan Jackson, Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood and Post Malone.

“The Voice” and “American Idol” are No. 3 and No. 4 this week, respectively, as they continue their battle for America’s most-beloved singing competition.

Breaking up the songs is “Tracker,” landing at No. 2 this week. Other scripted series that made their way onto the Top 10 are “FBI” at No. 5, “Watson” at No. 6, and “Law & Order” at No. 10. “Wheel of Fortune” holds 30 percent of the chart with spots No. 7, No. 8 and No. 9.

The Wrap Report provides an exclusive first look at the most watched movies and TV series from the past week across both streaming and linear television sourced from viewership trends collected from Samba TV’s panel of more than 3 million households, balanced to the U.S. Census.
