ABS-CBN leads nationwide ratings in Sept.


ABS-CBN Corp. reported taking the lead in national television ratings for the month of September, as GMA Network, Inc. challenged it in audience share in Urban Luzon, both citing different ratings providers.

The Lopez-led broadcasting giant said in a statement yesterday its national television rating stood at 45% last month, besting rival GMA which got a rating of 31%, based on findings of Kantar Media.

On the other hand, GMA, also in a statement yesterday, claimed dominance in total day people audience share in Urban Luzon for the month of September with a rating of 31.7% versus ABS-CBN’s 30.7%.

GMA uses data from Nielsen TV Audience Measurement. The provider also found GMA edged ABS-CBN in terms of viewership in Mega Manila, where its total day people audience share stood at 31.7% last month versus ABS-CBN’s 28.1%.

ABS-CBN claims its data provider, Kantar, gets its findings from a survey of 2,610 urban and rural households to represent 100% of the country’s total viewing population. Using that data, the Lopez-led media giant said it led the ratings board for Metro Manila and Mega Manila, where it recorded a 45% rating in the former and 41% in the latter, beating GMA’s 31% and 25%, respectively.

In terms of island groups, ABS-CBN again said it defeated GMA across Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Its ratings for Luzon reached 41% in September against GMA’s 34%; in Visayas at 57% versus GMA’s 24%, and in Mindanao at 51% opposed to GMA’s 28%.

Using data from Nielsen, however, GMA said it won against ABS-CBN in two time slots. It reported an audience share of 24.9% in the morning block to beat ABS-CBN’s 24.1%, and a share of 34.9% in the evening block versus its rival’s 32.3%. ABS-CBN didn’t provide ratings based on time slots.

The two networks likewise boasted of having the most-watched show in September, again citing data from different providers.

ABS-CBN said its FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano was number one on the Top 10 list, joined by eight other shows also produced by the network. GMA, on the other hand, said its Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho (KMJS) won first place in Urban Luzon’s Top 30 programs in September. 

The hit reality singing TV competition The Voice Kids emerged as the preferred TV show on weekends by viewers, while the action-drama The General’s Daughter kept its grip on the list of most watched shows for its adrenaline-fueled scenes.

Also completing the roster of most watched shows in September are the Kapamilya network’s weekday and weekend programs, including Parasite Island, Maalaala Mo Kaya, I Can See Your Voice, TV Patrol, Tonight with Boy Abunda, Bandila, Home Sweetie Home: Extra Sweet, Rated K, Gandang Gabi Vice, Umagang Kay Ganda, Magandang Buhay, Nang Ngumiti ang Langit, It’s Showtime, Kadenang Ginto, Ipaglaban Mo, SOCO, Kuha Mo, the recently-concluded drama series Los Bastardos, new late afternoon drama series Sandugo and new early evening drama series Pamilya Ko.

Following KMJS were Sahaya, 24 Oras, the Alden Richards starrer The Gift, Beautiful Justice, Daig Kayo ng Lola Ko, newest primetime offering One of the Baes, Love You Two, and Amazing Earth.

The recently-launched second season of The Clash also made it to the list of the Network's ratings drivers for the month, followed by StarStruck, The Better Woman, Bubble Gang, Saksi, Pepito Manaloto, Daddy’s Gurl, Magpakailanman, Studio 7, 24 Oras Weekend, The Boobay and Tekla Show, Unang Hirit, Mars Pa More, Wagas, Eat Bulaga, Hanggang sa Dulo ng Buhay Ko, Tadhana, Wish Ko Lang, Imbestigador, Prima Donnas, Dahil sa Pag-ibig and Wowowin. — Denise A.
