ABS-CBN Tops National TV Ratings in October

ABS-CBN remained undisputed in national TV viewership in October as more urban and rural households tuned in to its programs, hitting an average total day audience share of 44%, or nine points higher than GMA’s 35%, based on data from Kantar Media.

Kantar Media uses a nationwide panel size of 2,609 urban and rural homes that represent 100% of the total Philippine TV viewing population, while the other ratings data supplier AGB Nielsen reportedly has only 1,980 homes based solely in urban areas that represent only 57% of the Philippine TV viewing population.

ABS-CBN also preserved its stronghold in the primetime block (6PM-12MN), where it recorded an average national audience share of 49%, a strong 15-point lead over GMA’s 34%. The primetime block is the most important part of the day when most Filipinos watch TV and advertisers put a larger chunk of their investment in to reach more consumers effectively.

The Primetime Bida of ABS-CBN also showed its supremacy in other key territories such as Balance Luzon (areas in Luzon outside Mega Manila), where it triumphed with an average audience share of 54%, in the Visayas with 61%, and in Mindanao with 60%. GMA’s primetime block, on the other hand, garnered only 32%, 26%, and 27% respectively for the said areas.

ABS-CBN’s primetime leadership was driven by its top-caliber teleseryes, including “Ikaw Lamang,” which topped all programs in the country in October with its average national TV rating of 29.7%. It also ended on a high note last October 24, hitting a national TV rating of 34.1%, or 21 points ahead of its rival program “Hiram na Alaala” (13.1%). “Sana Bukas Pa Ang Kahapon” also finished strongly last October 10 with 27.3%, or 13 points higher than GMA’s “Hiram na Alaala” (14%).

“Two Wives,” meanwhile, has consistently won its timeslot since its launch in the first week of October. It garnered a national TV rating of 20.9% last October 20, beating the pilot episode of rival program “Ilustrado” with only 11.5%. “Forevermore” instantly captivated viewers during its premiere last October 27 with a national TV rating of 27.1% vs “Hiram Na Alaala’s” 12.8%.

“The Voice of the Philippines” returned with a blast last October 26 after gaining a national TV rating of 28.3% that outperformed “Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho’s” 17.2%. It also ranked second, tied with “Hawak Kamay” (28.3%), on the list of the most watched programs for October.

Overall, ABS-CBN clinched eleven spots on the list of top 15 programs nationwide. Other Kapamilya shows on the list include “TV Patrol” (28.2%), “Wansapanataym” (27.4%), “Home Sweetie Home” (26.7%), “Forevermore” (26.6%), “Maalaala Mo Kaya” (25.9%), “Pure Love” (23.6%), “Mga Kwento Ni Marc Logan” (23.6%), “Rated K” (23.6%), “Sana Bukas Pa Ang Kahapon” (22.9%), “Goin’ Bulilit” (22.1%), and “Two Wives” (20%).

In the morning block (6AM-12NN), “Da Adventures of Pedro Penduko” (12.2%) continues to beat its rival “Basta Every Day Happy” (5.3%), while “Marcelino Pan Y Vino” continues to win the hearts of young viewers with an average national TV rating of 10.1% compared to GMA’s “Return of the Wife” with only 6.7%.

    at first po, talaga namang nangunguna na ang ABS-CBN sa lahat… from all the TV programs, at lalong lalo na pagdating sa Primetime Bida, super makatotohanan ang lahat ng kanilang mga show. from the time you watch it, you will feel that your time is worth it tuning in that station. tapos yung galing ng kanilang mga shows, just like failon ngayon.. ay talagang pang international ang galing.. yung sa GMA kasi kaya sinasabi nilang madami silang award kasi pati yung sa GMA News TV sinasama nila lahat.. naka 18 daw na awards??? eehh.. sa ABS-CBN po 15, kasi sa ABS-CBN chanel 2 lang tlaga ung binase-an nila. yung sa GMA 7 kasama pa po yung mga shows sa GMA news TV.. ano kaya kung ABS-CBN channel 2 lang at GMA 7 po ang magtapat, im sure, PANALO ANG ABS-CBN…all the time.

  6. Marian Rivera, nasaan ka na . . . . .>

    bayad ang ratings na ito. binayaran ng gma7 ang kantar para bawasan ang ratings ng abscbn. obvious naman na mali ang result ng ratings na yun dahil ang totoo, 70-80% ang tunay na pocentahe ng mga pinoy TV viewrs nationwide. MANDARAYA TALAGA ANG GMA7!
