ABS-CBN Tops Primetime in Metro Manila and Nationwide for the Month of April
Kantar Media, which has national panel size of 1,370 homes and 7,535 individuals that are statistically representative of total Philippine TV population, reported that overall, ABS-CBN enjoyed the highest audience share in total day among all TV networks with 35.1% of Philippine households watching its shows.
ABS-CBN hit an average audience share of 42.1% nationwide last month, excluding the Holy Week, on primetime from 6PM to 12 MN when most Filipinos spend time watching TV and advertisers put their investments to reach more consumers efficiently, higher by 12.7-points than its rival network GMA’s 29.4%. In Metro Manila, ABS-CBN’s average audience share for primetime reached 35.4%, beating GMA’s 32.6%.
Across other territories, ABS-CBN remains to be the network of choice by most Filipino homes on primetime as it again topped in Balance Luzon (areas in Luzon outside Mega Manila) with 45.4% share vs GMA’s 30.4%. ABS-CBN ruled the Visayas with 55.8% share vs GMA’s 18.7% and pulled away further in Mindanao with 59.4% share vs GMA’s 15.5%.
ABS-CBN’s primetime leadership is still driven by the success of its top-caliber drama series. Its primetime series “Walang Hanggan” topped all programs in Metro Manila, Mega Manila, and national TV ratings. It averaged 34.6% in terms of TV ratings across the country.
Recently concluded “E-Boy” (30.2%) came in second while newly launched royal drama especially shot in Bhutan, “Princess and I,” instantly rose to the third spot with an average national TV rating of 28.8% after debuting last April 16.
“MMK” remains to be the most watched program on weekends and ranking fourth in overall tally with 28.6%, while the 25-year-old flagship primetime news program “TV Patrol” is still the number one newscast in the country with 22.9% in TV ratings.
Overall, eleven out of the top 15 programs for April are produced by ABS-CBN. Other Kapamilya shows in the list include “Dahil sa Pag-ibig” (24.7%), “Wansapanataym” (23.6%), “Rated K” (20.5%), “Kapamilya Deal or No Deal” (20.1%), “Toda Max” (19.1%), and “Sarah G Live” (18.5%).
Based on Kantar Media’s report, ABS-CBN garnered an average audience share of 35.1% in total day with rival GMA Network placing second with 33.7% share.
ABS-CBN registered a net income of P2.4 billion for the full year 2011, while news media reported that GMA Network net income plummeted P1.72 billion in the same period.
Kantar Media, a multinational market research group that specializes in audience measurement in more than 80 countries, has 22 TV networks, ad agencies, and pan-regional networks subscribing to its ratings services. Among its current subscribers are ABS-CBN, NBN, Sky Cable, J. Romero and Associates, Adformatix, Starcom, OMD, PhD, Mediacom, Mindshare, MEC, Maxus, Universal McCann, and Wellmade Manufacturing Corporation. They also include pan-regional networks likes CSM Media Inc., Fox International Channels, Star HK, Discovery, AXN, HBO, MTV, and Sony Pictures Television International.
ABS-CBN shifted to Kantar Media/TNS after filing a case vs. AGB Nielsen Media Research for failing to comply with its request to investigate alleged cheating and data tampering in TV ratings. The case is still pending in court contrary to claims by GMA, which is not a party to the case, that it has been resolved.
TABLE 7. TOP 15 PROGRAMS IN APRIL 2012 (NATIONAL HOMES)
Buray, hmnn… Do you consider yourself as high class Filipino citizen? Oh come on…. You can not even speak nor write straight and fluent english. Oh dear so sad….

GMA hit P1.7 billion net income in 2011 amid cut backs in theadvertising budget of top multinationals in 2011. ABS-CBN, meanwhile, excluding the one-time gain on sale of Sky Cable worth P1.1 billion, managed only P1.3 billion, P400 million short of GMA’s income.

not dumb as you dunderhead, admit it lugi ang kanguso kaya nga ibebenta na
ABS-CBN IS SUCH A MANIPULATOR! FILIPINOS ARE NOT AS DUMB AS YOU MAY THINK!
ABS-CBN, THE ONE AND ONLY LOCAL NETWORK SUBSCRIBER OF KANTAR! OPPS, SUBSCRIBER DIN PALA SKYCABLE. BY THE WAY, WHO OWNS SKYCABLE? HA HA HA HA!
ABS -CBN, FILIPINOS ARE NOT AS DUMB AS YOU MAY THINK.
Hay naku si Charo Nunal Santos! Ang galing mong magmanipulate. You should thank me. Nagcomment lang ako na talo ng GMA ang ABS- CBN sa Total Ratings ( meaning lahat ng shows na pumasok sa top 20) based on the data from Kantar last month. What is your basis for saying that ABS CBN has more viewres than GMA? PAKIBALIK PO YUNG DATA NG TOP 20 SHOWS PARA MALAMAN NG PUBLIKO KUNG ALING NETWROK ANG MAY PINAKAMATAAS NA TOTAL RATINGS. Aba minanipulate na kaagad. How could you explain that? LOKOHIN NINYO SARILI NINYO. ABS CBN, the one and only network subscriber ng KANTAR. GUMAGAWA NG SURVEY PARA SA KANILANG NETWORK. Paging Charo Nunal Santos, FILIPINOS ARE NOT AS DUMB AS YOU MAY THINK. HA HA HA HA!
hindi nakapagtataka na mag number 1 ang abs-cbn dahil sa mga show pa lng ng kapamilya talbog na ang gma at tv5! lalo naman pagdating sa mga artista? mas triple pa yata ang lamang ng abs-cbn sa gma at tv5! pa2nay lang na halos lahat ng mga advertiser eh kapamilta artist ang kinukuha? napapanuod nmn natin yan sa tv.halos lahat ng mga product endorser taga abs?
walang ng gma dito sa canada, nalugi kasi. cut ng rogers, bell, shaw at telus hindi nagbabayad ng utang lol
wala ngang gma dito sa canada dunderhead
suggestion lang po..i replay po kya ng abscbn ang walang hanggan either b4 or after showtime.
im sure patok ito.
ang ratings ng kantar agrees with the abscbn and its stars million followers in facebook, twitters, blockbuster movies, endorsements, gold record hits..awards…..
ung gma, sa kamuning lang tlaga..pwede sabhin n maganda documentaries nila being recognized internationally pero it doesnt follow na no.1 k tlaga.
pag nawala n ang eat bulaga sa kanila, wala na sila.
anyway, after maglapse ng 3yr contract ng eb sa gma, chances are lilipat ito sa tv5, which may be by that time eh pag aari na ni mvp..pwede n rin sila makisosyo ipalabas sa both chanels ang eb, he he.
ito ang katotohanan..wala p rin mkktalo sa abscbn..go go go walang hanggan, wako wako
magpa kamatay ka na lang justin kc talunan ka na
I agree that ABS-CBN dominates the primetime. Although balwarte ng GMA 7 ang daytime and that it’s because of Eat…Bulaga! Maghanda-handa na ang GMA 7 dahil nalalapit na ang pagbabalik-Kapamilya ng Eat…Bulaga! Paano na yan? Bagsak na naman ang mga Kapuso sa kangkungan niyan!
xa lng ang nanunud ng gma kya gnyan xa magreact!
tma:)
bka ikw lng isa ang nanood ng gma kya no. sau.. kelan ba nagng no. ang gma?
Kung sikat ang mga Artist ng GMA – bakit FLOP ang mga movies nila? dahil ba totoo na ang audience ng GMA mas marami galing sa lower class? hhhhhmmm…
mas malaki daw yung kinita ng abs kumpara sa GMA last year samantalang kung tatanggalin yung 1.1 billion na gain sa pagbenta ng skycable shares eh lumalabas na yung net income lang nila sa usual business eh 1.3 billion lang so lamang pa rin ang GMA sa net income na 400 million kumpara sa abs for 2011.
here’s my simple analysis, Yung movie ni pokwang (A Mother’s Story), di naman masyado pinromote ng ABS pero still manage to earn almost 30M, pro yung movie ni Rhian at Aljur (my Kontrabida girl) halos every commercial gap eh pinapatalastas pro Flop sa box office with 13M lang yung earnings considering big stars ng GMA and cast nun.. this is because Walang masyadong nanonood sa GMA.. na kahit ipatalastas pa nila ng maraming beses kung wala naman nanonood magiging FLOP nga yan.. hahaha
ABS CBN NO DOUBT THE BEST OF THEM ALL. LAHAT HALOS NG MGA ARTISTA NG ABS CBN SIKAT. KAYA HINDI LANG NAKAFOCUS SA ISANG ARTISTA. ITO ANG TOTOO.
no, i believe this is true. ABS-CBN has all the big stars. and im from Canada too, eh Justin 🙂
wOw!!! ABS-CBN Gooo… malapit ng maging atin ang Mega MAnila… Bahala
ang GMA 7 kung aagawin nila ang Daytime sa National, hnd nmn importante
yan eh… Primetime nmn ang pina ka important at all.
walang katotohanan ito…. gma ang dbest no 1 kapuso frome canada
