According to a recent report by AGB Nielsen Philippines regarding the over-all tv ratings for the year 2007, ABS-CBN is the number 1 network in National Urban Television Audience Measurement or NUTAM with 46% against GMA's 38%. But ABS-CBN believes that AGB Nielsen is no longer accurate as the gathering of ratings were already tampered.

Nevertheless, here are the figures for Luzon, Vizayas and Mindanao:

URBAN LUZON
GMA 42%
ABS-CBN 40%

URBAN VISAYAS
GMA 26%
ABS-CBN 60%

URBAN MINDANAO
GMA 23%
ABS-CBN 66%

The figures show that ABS-CBN is the undisputed leader in Vizayas and Mindanao by a landslide. However, GMA was able to take the lead in Luzon by only 2 percent. But Mega Manila remains GMA’s stronghold as the kapuso network garnered 47 percent while ABS-CBN is at 34 percent, a gap of 13% between the rival stations.

Although the rankings of the Top 50 shows in NUTAM for the year 2007 are yet to be released, ABS-CBN’s highest rating shows nationwide (NUTAM) are Sana Maulit Muli, Kokey and Princess Sarah. On the other hand, GMA’s highest rating show nationwide (NUTAM) is Marimar. According to PEP, Marimar is the first GMA-7 primetime soap to notch the top spot consistently in AGB Nielsen’s National Urban Television Audience Measurement or NUTAM which is ABS-CBN’s territory.
