Doctor Who takes the top spot on Hulu's TV chart for Nov 9–15, 2026, but the real story is the platform's split personality: comfort cartoons, legacy sitcoms, and reality TV all fighting for attention. This week's top 10 shows Hulu users…
balancing nostalgia with novelty—Phineas and Ferb ranks No. 2 with a popularity score of 1,952 that dwarfs Doctor Who's 1,325, despite Doctor Who's higher vote count. Meanwhile, The Kelly Clarkson Show sneaks in at No. 4 with only 75 votes but a popularity score of 1,026, proving that daytime talk still cuts through. The data measures weekly engagement across Hulu's global TV catalog, combining vote counts (a proxy for long-term fandom) with popularity scores (a snapshot of current viewing momentum). That's why you see anomalies like The Office at No. 7 with 5,689 votes—more than any other show except The Simpsons—but a popularity score of just 823. Readers should care because this isn't just a list of what's on; it's a map of what people are actually choosing to watch when they have infinite options. Methodology: Hulu's global top 10 TV ranking for the week of Nov 9–15, 2026, based on provider-reported engagement metrics.

Hulu's top 10 for Nov 9–15, 2026, splits into three camps: animated family fare (Phineas and Ferb, The Simpsons), procedural dramas (Doctor Who, Law & Order: SVU, The Last Kingdom), and legacy sitcoms (Modern Family, The Office, How I Met Your Mother). The most surprising entry is The Kelly Clarkson Show at No. 4—daytime talk rarely cracks these charts, and its 75 votes suggest a dedicated but small base driving a popularity score of 1,026. Equally notable is The Girlfriend at No. 5, a newer title that's already outperforming The Office in popularity (1,231 vs. 823), even though The Office has 15 times more votes. This reveals a clear pattern: vote counts reflect historical fandom, while popularity scores capture current momentum. Doctor Who's No. 1 spot is solid but not dominant—its popularity score is only 66% of Phineas and Ferb's. The list overall shows Hulu users gravitating toward escapism (animation, sci-fi) and comfort (sitcoms) over reality or news. As the holiday season approaches, expect legacy sitcoms to climb as viewers seek familiar background noise.

Doctor Who leads the chart with 3,504 votes and a popularity score of 1,325, proving the Time Lord's global appeal remains strong on Hulu.

Phineas and Ferb ranks No. 2 with the week's highest popularity score (1,952) on just 1,086 votes—a sign that summer may be over, but the cartoon's binge factor isn't.

Law & Order: SVU holds No. 3 with 4,407 votes and a 1,411 popularity score, cementing its status as Hulu's most reliable procedural.

The Kelly Clarkson Show cracks the top 5 with only 75 votes but a 1,026 popularity score—daytime talk's surprising staying power.

The Girlfriend lands at No. 5 with 166 votes and a 1,231 popularity score, outpacing legacy sitcoms in current momentum.

Modern Family ranks No. 6 with 3,615 votes and a 1,021 popularity score, showing the Pritchett-Dunphy clan still draws steady viewership.

The Office sits at No. 7 with a massive 5,689 votes but a popularity score of only 823, revealing that Dunder Mifflin loyalty doesn't always translate to active viewing.

The Last Kingdom claims No. 8 with 2,088 votes and a 1,042 popularity score, proving historical drama still has a dedicated following.

A father recounts to his children - through a series of flashbacks - the journey he and his four best friends took leading up to him meeting their mother.

The Simpsons rounds out the list at No. 10 with 11,161 votes, the highest vote count of any show, but a popularity score of 1,200 shows even Springfield can't escape the nostalgia trap.
