‘House of the Dragon’ Keeps Its Grip On the Streaming Throne for 4th Straight Week | Chart

As August dawns, "House of the Dragon," HBO's "Game of Thrones" spinoff, reclaims the streaming throne for the fourth consecutive week and a fifth of the last six. When acclaimed HBO and HBO Max series ascend to the top, they often maintain dominance even after their runs. Currently in its third season, the anticipation is to see if history repeats itself.

The Wrap Report reveals the most-watched movies and TV shows from the past week across streaming and live television, sourced from Samba's panel of over three million households. In second place, Netflix's true-crime documentary "The Idaho Murders: College Nightmare" unveils a grisly story of four University of Idaho students' murders in 2022.

Third is Netflix's western "Ransom Canyon," starring Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly. "Ride or Die," the Prime Video action comedy, drops down one spot to fourth. This marks three consecutive weeks on the chart, suggesting staying power despite all eight episodes debuting on July 15. Also holding its ground at sixth is HBO's Larry David-led "Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness," skewering American history.

"Power Book III: Raising Kanan," a fifth-season crime drama spinoff of "Power," enters the chart in the same place after debuting a week earlier. The Will Ferrell Netflix comedy "The Hawk" slides down to seventh. "Lucky," an Apple TV+ crime thriller, occupies eighth place. The Netflix limited series "The Bombing of Pan Am 103," a scripted retelling of the 1988 Lockerbie bombing, is ninth.

Closing the streaming chart is Hulu's crime drama "Furious," starring Emmy Rossum, debuting in tenth after its July 27 release. Meanwhile, for linear television, "America's Got Talent" remains the reigning champion for the 21st season, followed by "Wheel of Fortune," "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?," "Jeopardy!," "America's Funniest Home Videos," and "American Ninja Warrior."
