Criminal Minds Tops Paramount+ Charts Despite Taylor Sheridan Dominance

Taylor Sheridan has several shows on Paramount+, including the Yellowstone franchise, Landman, Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown, and he typically occupies the platform's viewership charts. He currently has three titles in the U.S. top ten — Landman, CBS' Marshals and the new Beth Dutton- and Rip Wheeler-centric spin-off Dutton Ranch — yet another procedural has climbed to number one.

Criminal Minds returned for its 19th season in May and, four seasons into its revived Evolution run, surged back to the top of Paramount+'s U.S. charts to close out last week — more than two decades after its 2005 premiere on CBS. New episodes still arrive every Thursday, and Dutton Ranch, which trails in second place and set a record for the platform's biggest debut, has two episodes left in its inaugural run; that sustained audience is part of why a 20th season was ordered months in advance.
