‘Ted Lasso’ tops the streaming charts in a first-ever accomplishment for Apple TV+

The season three (and perhaps series) finale of “Ted Lasso” delivered record streaming numbers for Apple TV+.

Apple TV+’s biggest hit, “Ted Lasso,” scored a big win at the top of the streaming charts in the latest Wrap Report for the week of April 26-May 2. 

This season’s seventh episode beat out several hot new programs, including Amazon Prime Video’s “The Citadel” and Disney+’s debut of “Peter Pan & Wendy,” and marked the first time ever that Apple TV+ landed the top spot on the leaderboard. “Ted Lasso” is in its third, and possible final, season.

The Wrap Report, from The Wrap publication tracks the most-watched programs across linear TV and streaming, according to viewership trends collected from Samba TV’s panel of more than three million households drawn from over 25 million connected TVs, balanced to the U.S. Census.
