Why the page charts Google Search
A weekly HBO title that people look up between episodes should be checked on search first, and Google Search for this keyword is the series that still clears 20 percent over 7 days with a readable climb off a five-year floor of 4 to 9.
That source printed 100 on September 19, up 33.33% from 75 over 7 days and up 4.17% from 96 over 30 days, with last-52 week-over-week sample standard deviation 39.92%. YouTube for the same keyword is 88, up 35.38% from 65 over 7 days and up 33.33% from 66 over 30 days, a trailer-clip index that also moves but is not the stored page. Google Shopping is 50, down 15.25% from 59 over 7 days, up 35.14% from 37 over 30 days, and down 20.63% year over year from 63, so the cart series fails the 1Y bar. Search is the series that matches the weekly-watch story and still has the 1566.67% year-over-year lift. Same-day Google Search neighbors: green lantern 92 (+17.95% over 30 days from 78), aaron pierre 14 (+16.67% from 12), kyle chandler 82 (-11.83% from 93), reacher 63 (-18.18% from 77), house of the dragon 4 (-69.23% from 13). YouTube Trending as of 2026-09-24T04:01:34Z had no Lanterns titles in the top 30. Wikipedia Trending that morning also left Lanterns (TV series) out of the top 30, after ranking it 25 the prior day.
get_time_series with source google search and the stored keyword is the call behind the chart: 261 weekly points from 2021-09-25 through 2026-09-19, stored as {date, value} with no smoothing. get_growth on the same pair, windows 7D, 30D, and 1Y, is the headline math: 75 to 100 (+33.33%), 96 to 100 (+4.17%), and 6 to 100 (+1566.67%). Mixing the Shopping 50 with the Search 100 would invent a story the APIs do not tell.
