TV Demand: Loki reigns, Rick and Morty season five powers up the charts

In its fifth week of release – and one week before the final episode airs – Marvel’s Loki has finally managed to do what it’s been threatening to do since it launched and take the top spot on all four charts. 

The show weaves its way in and out of timelines, as the mysterious TVA works to keep variants under control and “prune” any branches from the Sacred Timeline. 

In Australia, Loki has come in at a massive 35.33 points above market average, and 25.23 points above market average in New Zealand. 

Long time favourite Rick and Morty continues to climb on the charts as its fifth season continues. Episode three of the new season – A Rickconvenient Mort – is a riff on the sci-fi cartoon, Captain Planet. 

Rick and Morty's showrunner Scott Marder has said that he thinks the idea of a potential movie for the series directed by Zack Snyder would be a good idea. 

“I think that’s really cool," Marder said. "I really enjoyed Army of the Dead. I think he’s in a really cool space of his own right now. I’m excited to see what he’ll do in this Netflix world where people aren’t really interfering with his vision as much.” 

This week Rick and Morty averaged 26.67 points above market average in Australia and 20.82 points in New Zealand. It has placed second in both Overall charts.

Making its way on to the Overall Australian chart in seventh place this week is Miraculous: Tales Of Ladybug And Cat Noir. 

In the show, high school students Marinette and Adrien are tasked with capturing akumas, creatures that make people evil. To do this, the pair become superheroes – but neither one knows  the other's identity.

Miraculous: Tales Of Ladybug And Cat Noir came in at 18.35 points above market average this week.
