What's everybody been watching on TV this week?

We've got the data from streaming aggregator ReelGood, which generates viewing figures pulled from a bunch of streaming sites in the U.S. and UK, and reveals the most watched TV shows, so you can get a feel for what people are into this week.

This week, it's a broad range, with the return of The Umbrella Academyand Only Murders in the Building, Westworld, and the arrival of Loot. But of course, it'll take more than a few crimes to fully kick Obi-Wan Kenobiand Stranger Thingsoff the most-watched list.

Here are the top 10 most streamed TV shows of the week and what Mashable's critics thought of them. Just because something is popular doesn't make it awesome

1. The Old Man

Based on Thomas Perry’s thriller novel of the same name, Jeff Bridges leads this one as Dan Chase, an ex-CIA agent whose live off-grid is interrupted by an assassin. To find them, the FBI’s assistant director for counterintelligence Harold Harper (John Lithgow) calls Chase back into the job, working with rising FBI star Angela Adams (Alia Shawkat) and CIA special agent Raymond Waters (E.J. Bonilla). But special ops agent Julian Carson (Gbenga Akinnagbe) is also pursuing Chase. Amy Brenneman also stars as Zoe McDonald, who Chase rents a room from while on the case. — Shannon Connellan, UK Editor

2. The Boys

Eric Kripke's gory superhero series has punched its way back onto our screens with a third season, following Billy (Karl Urban) and Hughie (Jack Quaid) as they go up against Homelander (Antony Starr) again after the events of Season 2. Expect gratuitous violence aplenty, from Season 1 all the way to the brand new Season 3. — Sam Haysom, Deputy UK Editor

What we thought:In some ways, Season 2 is The Boys we came to know in 2019. It's still relentlessly dark and oppressively bleak in its portrayal of the world. It's also still gory as hell, and perhaps even moreso this time. But if you're here, you already know what to expect and are prepared for graphic scenes of explosive dismemberment and compound fractures. — Adam Rosenberg, Senior Entertainment Reporter and Editor

3. Obi-Wan Kenobi

Disney+'s latest Star Wars foray, Obi-Wan Kenobi, which follows the titular hero (played by Ewan McGregor) on a quest to save Princess Leia (Vivien Lyra Blair) from the clutches of Inquisitor Reva (Moses Ingram) 10 years after the events of Episode III. It became the most-watched Disney+ original after its opening weekend. The people simply can't get enough Star Wars. — S.H.

5. The Umbrella Academy

After a long wait, Netflix's hit superhero dramedy The Umbrella Academyis back for Season 3 of the Hargreeves family saga. But this time, they don't actually really exist — the Sparrow Academy rules here. — S.C.

What we thought:Since this is now The Umbrella Academy's third installment, the "we only have x amount of time to stop the apocalypse" formula risks feeling a little overdone. Lucky for us, Season 3 avoids that pitfall (for the most part), keeping the Hargreeves' adventures feeling fresh with powerful new character developments and a fun set of villains to face off against. — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter

Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan's dystopian sci-fi Westworldis back for Season 4, picking up seven years after the events of Season 3. Evan Rachel Wood, Thandiwe Newton, Tessa Thompson, Jeffrey Wright, Aaron Paul, Angela Sarafyan, and Ed Harris are all here. — S.C.

7. Only Murders in the Building

Well, things didn't work out quitelike they thought for our three podcasting heroes at the end of Season 1 of Only Murders in the Building,and Season 2 plunges them into a whole new mystery at the Arconia. Martin Short, Steve Martin, and Selena Gomez are back, with Cara Delevingne and Amy Schumer joining this time around. — S.C.

What we thought:Only Murders in the Building is up to somethingin its second season, that much is clear. It's messier and more scattered than before. — B.E.

8. Stranger Things

The most streamed (and wildly unsurprising so) show of the week is the Duffer brothers' Stranger Things, which recently returned for the first volume of Season 4. Our core characters are all a lot more grown up this time around, but Hawkins is still just as scary and monster-riddled as ever (and the soundtrack is, as always, banging). — S.H.

What we thought:You’ve waited a long time to go back to Hawkins — three years to be exact (or a whole pandemic, a few collapsing democracies, a Capitol insurrection, an ongoing war, etc, etc, etc). Certainly, Stranger Things Season 4 Volume 1 rewards that patience by welcoming you back with an over-abundance of what we've always loved about this cult hit since 2016. — Jess Joho, Staff Writer

It's 1971, and Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn (Zahn McClarnon) of the Tribal Police finds himself digging into the past with a series of crimes with his new deputy, Jim Chee (Kiowa Gordon). — S.C.
