For the week of May 18–24, Paramount+'s "Dutton Ranch" (Season 1) holds the #1 spot on the TVision Power Score for the second consecutive week. The Yellowstone universe just keeps working. Viewers followed the story from Yellowstone to 1883 to 1923, and now to Dutton Ranch. That kind of audience doesn't need to be won over.  They're already there. 

Amazon's "The Boys" (Season 5) climbs back to #2 after slipping to #3 last week. The series finale aired this past week, and the audience showed up in force to close it out. A show that maintained a top-three presence throughout its entire final season and then spiked on the way out. That's a send-off the attention data won't forget anytime soon.

New at #3 is Netflix's "The Boroughs" (Season 1), the Duffer Brothers-produced sci-fi series set in a retirement community hiding something far darker beneath the surface. With a cast led by Alfred Molina, Alfre Woodard, and Geena Davis, all eight episodes dropped at once, and viewers dove in immediately.

Methodology & Metrics

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.

About the TVision Power Score

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.
