‘The Kardashians’ Tops Hulu’s Top 10 Most-Watched Shows List This Week

This week on Hulu, you’ll find a mix of popular new shows, reliable network TV series, gripping true-crime dramas, and long-time favorites—something for everyone, whether you’re starting a new series or catching up on recent episodes. Here’s a quick guide to the most-watched shows on the platform, with details on what they’re about, where they come from, who stars in them, and how new episodes are released.

10. ‘General Hospital’ (1963– )

General Hospital, a long-running daytime drama on ABC, tells the stories of people whose lives intertwine in the city of Port Charles. The show combines medical emergencies, love stories, crime investigations, and power struggles in the business world. Created by Frank and Doris Hursley, it has aired thousands of episodes and won many Daytime Emmy Awards. You can watch new episodes weekdays on ABC and stream them on Hulu soon after they air. With characters that come and go over the years, the show appeals to both longtime fans and those just discovering it.

9. ‘Chad Powers’ (2025– )

The Hulu comedy series centers around Russ Holliday, a former football star who pretends to be someone else – a player named Chad Powers – to rejoin the game at a small college. Created by Glen Powell and Michael Waldron, and with Eli Manning as a producer, the show is loosely based on a similar stunt Manning himself pulled. All episodes were initially released at once on Hulu, with new episodes added each week. The series realistically portrays college football, filming at actual stadiums and featuring appearances from real sports commentators.

8. ‘The Golden Bachelor’ (2023– )

This show is a version of ‘The Bachelor’ featuring a senior lead looking for love later in life. It airs on ABC and is also available on Hulu. Like other shows in the franchise, it includes roses, hometown visits, and a final decision. This version focuses more on family and the life experiences of the contestants, which adds a new layer to dating and making choices. You can still expect travel, group dates, and reunion episodes, just like in other ‘Bachelor’ seasons.

7. ‘Dancing with the Stars’ (2005– )

Celebrities team up with professional dancers and compete in various ballroom and Latin dance styles. Judges and viewers score their performances, and the show airs live on ABC. You can also watch episodes on Hulu soon after they air, including both the performances and the results shows. Each season features themed weeks, like Disney night or Halloween, which influence the dances and music. Each week, one couple is eliminated until a champion is crowned in the finale.

6. ‘Only Murders in the Building’ (2021– )

This series, filmed in Manhattan’s Arconia building, centers around three neighbors – Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez – who team up to solve mysterious deaths and document their investigations in a true-crime podcast. Each season features a new case with intriguing puzzles and appearances by guest stars, revealed gradually on Hulu. Steve Martin and John Hoffman created the show, which is produced by 20th Television. After releasing several episodes at once initially, new seasons now come out one episode per week.

5. ‘Abbott Elementary’ (2021– )

As a huge comedy fan, I’ve been loving “Abbott Elementary.” It’s a really funny show done in a mockumentary style – think “The Office,” but set in a Philadelphia public school. Quinta Brunson created it and is fantastic in it! You can catch it on ABC, and the best part is, episodes are available to stream on Hulu the very next day. It’s a super relatable look at the everyday struggles teachers face – everything from dealing with tight budgets to navigating the personalities of their colleagues. The cast is amazing too – Tyler James Williams, Sheryl Lee Ralph, Lisa Ann Walter, Chris Perfetti, and William Stanford Davis all bring so much to the show. And a cool thing is, the seasons usually start around the fall, mirroring the actual school year.

4. ‘Murdaugh: Death in the Family’ (2025)

This miniseries is a fictionalized retelling of the Alex Murdaugh case, the true-crime story that gained national attention in South Carolina. New episodes are released weekly on Hulu until the season ends. The show is based on in-depth reporting and popular podcasts that covered the events, the timeline, and the legal consequences. It features well-known actors and is produced by companies with a strong background in crime dramas.

3. ‘Reasonable Doubt’ (2022– )

Reasonable Doubt, a legal drama from Hulu and Onyx Collective, centers on Jax Stewart, a skilled defense attorney handling challenging cases and her own complex life in Los Angeles. Created by Raamla Mohamed and with Kerry Washington as an executive producer, the show is a Hulu exclusive in the United States. Each season blends self-contained cases with ongoing storylines, and features Emayatzy Corinealdi in the lead role, alongside a cast with characters who develop over time.

2. ‘High Potential’ (2024– )

Inspired by the French show ‘HPI,’ this crime drama features Kaitlin Olson as a remarkably intelligent civilian who helps the police solve complex cases. New episodes air on ABC and are then available to stream on Hulu. Each episode focuses on a new case, with ongoing storylines that develop the characters. The first season had 13 episodes, and new seasons typically premiere in the fall. The cast includes Taran Killam and other actors involved in major crime investigations.

1. ‘The Kardashians’ (2022– )

This reality series follows the Kardashian-Jenner family, giving viewers an inside look at their lives, both at home and at work. As a Hulu original, new seasons are released in batches, with episodes becoming available weekly. The show covers everything from launching new businesses and celebrating family events to their travels and relationships. New seasons stream every year, exclusively on Hulu in the United States.
