The Singing Bee and Wowowee Top NUTAM for September originally appeared on Starmometer on October 15, 2008.

It looks like the petition to bring back the Singing Bee on air just became stronger as the karaoke game show hosted by Cesar Montano was able to beat Dyesebel for the second month-in-a-row in the nationwide ratings. Dyesebel lost again to The Singing Bee with a difference of just 0.1%, the Bee received 33.2% while the fish got 33.1% for the month of August. Anne Curtis’ Dyosa was third placer.

In the weekend ratings, Pinoy Dream Academy managed to grab the top spot in the primetime race. PDA was also the leader in Mega Manila primetime weekend ratings so its no surprise that the talent competition was able to dominate NUTAM as well.
