"The Morning Show" (S3) from AppleTV+ and Disney+ "Star Wars: Ahsoka" have been battling it out for the top spot in the list for several weeks. This week, Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Anniston prevailed with the AppleTV+ show gaining the number one ranking in the TVision Power Score.
Netflix placed seven shows on the list and Amazon had five.
Only four shows made the list in each of the five weeks we counted for September. The full period we measured was August 28- October 1, 2023. Those shows include "Harlan Coben's Shelter" from Amazon, and "Star Wars: Ahsoka" from Disney+. Notably, "Special Ops: Lioness" (S1) and "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" (S2) from Paramount+ have made the list for ten straight weeks. Here is a roundup of the CTV shows that remained on the TVision Power Score Top 20 in September for the most consecutive weeks.
Netflix once again led the list with 13 shows making their way to the TVision Power Score in September. Driving Netflix's dominance were several highly anticipated series returns, such as Virgin River and Sex Education. Netflix's investment in Suits continues to pay off as viewers cycle through the large library of content.
Amazon (8 shows) and AppleTV+ (7) also had strong months.

TVision measures Viewer Presence and Attention for every second of programming and advertising on television. Every time a person walks into the room, our technology detects who the viewer is, where they are in the room, and what their eyes are looking at. We do all this without personally identifying individual users, and without transmitting any images or videos. TVision’s data is collected from an opt-in panel of 5,000 homes across the United States and weighted to represent the country. All demographic data is self-reported by the respondents. Linear and CTV ad impressions data in this report is from May 1 – May 31, 2023 or May 29 – June 4, 2023, unless otherwise indicated.
The TVision Power Score is a completely new ranking designed to factor in both viewership and engagement when measuring the performance of CTV programming. The Power Score is based on the industry’s most comprehensive view of the CTV landscape - TVision measures activity across over 1,000 apps - and enables an accurate understanding of the relative performance of CTV content across any app. This new way to understand show performance will enable industry watchers to more quickly identify trending content and CTV’s hottest programming and even uncover hidden gems distributed through smaller apps.
The TVision Power Score factors in four key metrics: the amount of time viewers pay attention to the program, the amount of program time available for the season, the program’s reach, as well as the application’s reach. This combination of metrics was chosen to enable a neutral look at the quality of programming and its unique, inherent ability to draw in viewers - regardless of the scale of the platform, or the program’s release schedule.
TVision Power Score: TVision's Power Score represents how engaged audiences are for any given program. Our formula looks at (Attentive seconds / Seconds Available) x (Program Reach per Season / Publisher Reach).
