‘Captain Barbell’ Soars in the Ratings

GMA-7's Captain Barbell made a soaring comeback as demonstrated by its consistent high numbers according to ratings data from more recognized research agency Nielsen TV Audience Measurement.

The pilot episode of the Mars Ravelo classic remake earned a winning 33.7 percent audience share among Mega Manila households, and further posted a weeklong average of 33 percent.

As promised, Captain Barbell opened in grand and explosive fashion as the well-loved superhero commences his battle with the evil forces. Wearing his spanking new costume and signature red cape, Captain Barbell proved to be stronger and more aggressive as he faces his biggest opponent Nero (Christopher de Leon). Captain Barbell won over Nero, signaling the start of another challenging journey for the greatest Pinoy superhero.

As the series continues this week, Captain Barbell faces off with Gregor (TJ Trinidad), who has recently discovered his power to endure bullet shots. Some of the tenants, who were struck by lighting during the freakstorm, also begin to learn of their superpowers including Ricky (Ervic Vijandre), Gaston (Elvis Gutierrez), Misha (Bea Binene) and Alden (Jake Vargas).

General Armado (Eddie Gutierrez) tries to convince Captain Barbell to team-up with the new superheroes and together, fight off the evil forces. Meanwhile, Lelay struggles to complete her family tree project and asks help from her school teacher Althea (Lovi Poe).

These and more await viewers as Captain Barbell continues right after 24 Oras on GMA Telebabad.

    hay, so stupid.

  9. alex g: How would you equate a Decline in Ads, Cheap Awards, Flop Movie Gross & Poor Artists' Endorsements, from a high ratings (kono?!?!) claimed by gozon? // April 7, 2011 at 1:44 pm //

    Cheating & Data Tampering, Desperate Publicity, Mind Conditioning, Mislead Info’s, Rating Manipulations, etc.
    😎

  10. alex g: Did you know that gma7 was always the first channel that SIGNS-OFF the tv? And terminated by KBP for Television Code violations? Did you also know that AGB Nielsen Media Research has a pending case here & abroad? // April 7, 2011 at 1:43 pm //

    Early Signing-Off, Cost Cutting, Debt Increase & Financial Crisis.
    Words that best describes gma.
    😎

  11. alex g: What happened to the Titan Plugs of gma? I think that's what you called, "KARMA". As usual, yung summer station ID (ginaya na naman) "Halo Halo ang Summer Saya"... what a bunch of CHEAP shows. // April 7, 2011 at 1:43 pm //

    Pag d gawang gma, minsan nag re-rate.
    Pag gawang gma, basurang-basura.
    😎

  12. alex g: gma artists/shows are equipped with Very Poor Acting Skills. Kaya dinadaan na lang sa mga effects & fighting pose, para mairaos man lang ang basurang show at pagtakpan ang mga malalamyang pag-arte (how stupid). // April 7, 2011 at 1:43 pm //

    Boboserye, Flopserye, Peryaserye, Pornoserye, O.A.serye, T.H.serye, etc.
    Practice Acting – tatak gma.

  13. alex g: Kapit-Tuko tlga si gozon sa ratings, (as usual pag PANIC time). TALUNAN kasi sa lahat ng bagay, mapa Ads, Awards, Movies, Endorsements & Recognitions. Hay, walang kadala-dala. // April 7, 2011 at 1:43 pm //

    Weakness tlga ng gma ang lumaban ng patas.
    😎

  14. alex g: AM/FM Programs, Balance Programming, Daytime/Primetime Shows, Foreign Programs, News Channel/Program, Promos, Regional Network Events, Sports, Station ID, TV Format, Timeslot, etc. (kinopya lahat ng gma). // April 7, 2011 at 1:42 pm //

    Konting Delicadeza naman gozon.
    😎

  15. alex g: "Walang kinikilingan, walang pinoproteksyonan, walang kasinungalingan, walang bahid pulitika, serbisyong totoo lang", Dahil d natutulog ang balita, BAYARAN niyo kami para gumawa ng commercials 24 oras". // April 7, 2011 at 1:42 pm //

    gma is coward of getting involve into politics. that’s why they tend to engage in “barangay” matters na lang.
    😎

  16. alex g: Valentines Box Office King daw, ni wala nga kasabay na Filipino movie eh, 44.26M in 3 weeks lang!? (as compared to BULONG with 67.27M). May "Divine Intervention" pa raw, sabi ni mother lily (how stupid). // April 7, 2011 at 1:41 pm //

    “Napakahirap na ng buhay ngayon, kaya for a movie to make over P135 million in 3 days is a miracle. Divine intervention ito”.

Kahiya talaga, dapat siguro wag na kami gumawa ng mga fantaserye, sawa na siguro mga tao kaya mahina pati Dwarfina. Blush!!!!

  25. Hay naku! Mandaraya na naman kayo GMA 7 at AGB Neilsen…pwe!!!

    pampalubag loob lang ito para hindi umalis ang mga advertisers…

    mas maganda ang costume ng CB sa S1 kaysa ngayon. para syang mascot sa suot nya. para tuloy syang live version nung anime na Super Boink…

  28. ampalaya7 // April 7, 2011 at 12:45 pm //

    ok lng yan……pangit naman e….atsaka planado n ang rating nyan…kya dedmahin nyo nlng….

  29. I agree na compared sa mga dating teleserye ni Richard Gutierez, pwedeng sabihing flop to. Konte lang lamang nya sa Mutya and to think isang baguhang child star lang ang kalaban nya.At kung dati lagi sya #1, nayon pangatlo lang sya sa Mara Clara and Minsan lang kita iibigin.

  30. Negosyo lang nila ang ratings!!!!

  31. kahit mataas ang ratings ng Captain Barbell, comparaed sa track record ni Richard Gutierez dati di sya pwede sabihing succesful. Konte lang lamang nya sa Mutya at #3 lang sya over-all.

    ewan ko ba kung bakit pa pinanonood yang tv show na ‘yan..!! Kapamilya (though its ratings are being manipulated) still dominates the Philippine TV industry.! True proof is the consistency of their advertisers and their money-making power..!! Kapamilya rocks…!!! Kapuso sucks..

  42. Papatunayan yan ng number of advertisers… Hahahahahahahahahaha… Mutya ang daming advertiser… Si CB kaya?

  43. Honestly, as a consumer, I don’t care about the ratings. The hell with that. As long as the show is showing some premise and has quality, I’m okay with that. So I don’t understand why a lot of people are making stupind comments about its ratings. Please show your decency when using interent. No wonder why other nationalities view us Filipinos as monkeys who learned how to use computer. These few stupid ignorant people gives the more educared FIlipino individuals a bad name. If you have nothing good to say, just shup up

  44. Wawa Naman // April 7, 2011 at 11:39 am //

    Tama Karen! Isang malaking kalokohan. Malalaking stars ( stars nga ba) ng gma pinagsama para lang lunurin ng batang si Mutya. Pak na Pak talaga. Oh Rechard, oh Rechard…wawa naman.

    nag rate nalang…patawarin natin ang nagsisinungaling

  46. Let me just commend Captain Barbell for a great new season premier episode. It has been a great start and so far it is keeping up to its promise – to give us a quality show. The special effects have been very well executed. I like it when he takes off. It’s like a blazing speed of lightning. I feel like I am living in Captain Barbell’s world. I love the story within a story. It is one of the reasons I am hooked in this series. It seems there are secrets to be revealed eventually. I’m pretty sure there are a lot. Like how some characters became superhumans? How they got their powers? The opening scene was also very intriguing. Who are his allies? Was he trying to save the world from its brink of extinction? I love the chemistry of all the casts. It seems like each of them fits the role. The trudis liit star is cute and exceptional acting-wise. Kudos to its headwriter. I hope that hindi lumaylay and istorya.
