It’s business as usual for the Kapamilya shows as they continue to dominate the primetime race, based on the national overnight ratings of Taylor Nelson Sofres (TNS). In fact, they occupy the Top 5 slots with another one included in the Top 10.
The family drama May Bukas Pa leads the onslaught, reaching as high as 40.9 percent (February 19).
The comedy-drama I Love Betty La Fea and the heavy-drama Tayong Dalawa shared the No. 2 spot; Betty La Fea last Tuesday and Tayong Dalawa on Wednesday and Thursday.
Primetime newscast TV Patrol World and showbiz-oriented show Showbiz News Ngayon took the fourth and fifth spots, respectively.
The rest of the Top 10 was occupied by the following shows, in this order: GMA-7’s Luna Mystika, Gagambino, Ang Babaeng Hinugot Sa Aking Tadyang, and 24 Oras, and ABS-CBN’s Pinoy Fear Factor.
The daytime race is an entirely different story.
Although ABS-CBN’s noontime show Wowowee is relatively still the highest-rated daytime show, GMA-7 soap Saan Darating ang Umaga? is posing a big threat. In fact, this Sine Novela starring Yasmien Kurdi managed to grab the No. 1 spot last Tuesday, Feb. 17.
While placing second to Wowowee last Wednesday and Thursday, Saan Darating ang Umaga‘s numbers are not that far behind—22 percent vs. 19.8 percent and 22.7 vs. 20.9 percent.
Other daytime Kapuso shows are also doing very well. Paano Ba ang Mangarap?, starring Jennylyn Mercado and Mark Herras, consistently held on to the No. 3 spot. Eat Bulaga! and Daisy Siete managed to grab the fourth and fifth slots in some days.
Other shows consistently making it to the Top 10 are Pilipinas, Game KNB?, Pieta, Parekoy, Lalola, and Be Strong Geum Soon.
