PennStakes.com took a break from covering Pennsylvania sports betting to figure out the top shows, using IMDB’s list of the Top 50 most watched TV shows in the United States during 2023 as a starting point. Then we turned to AhRefs for its list of the five most-searched shows this year. The shows were: “The Last of Us,” “Ted Lasso,” “The Mandalorian,” “Succession” and “The Bear.” We then used Google Trends to search each television show, finding the interest level in each state for those five programs.

After compiling the trends since Jan. 1, we averaged the results to get the top TV shows for each state.

The Brendan Hunt-produced show also claimed the second spot in 25 other states. Renowned for its critical acclaim and success, “Ted Lasso” earned an 8.8 rating with a 90% Rotten Tomatoes score.
