The Pitt holds the top spot going into its second season, while A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms debuts at three, giving MAX a real grip on January's list. Call the Midwife at two is the other standout, keeping BBC One well placed in a month where returning shows fill most of the ten spots. Love Through a Prism, an animated drama, is the most distinctive of the three new arrivals.
