Kantar Media uses a nationwide panel size of 2,609 urban and rural homes that represent 100% of the total Philippine TV viewing population, while the other ratings data supplier AGB Nielsen reportedly has only 1,980 homes based solely in urban areas that represent only 57% of the Philippine TV viewing population.
ABS-CBN also ruled the hotly contested primetime block (6PM-12MN), with an average national audience share of 46% vs. GMA’s 29%. Primetime is considered the most important part of the day when most Filipinos watch TV and advertisers put a larger chunk of their investment in to reach more consumers efficiently.
Aside from primetime, ABS-CBN’s early afternoon block (12NN-3PM) also strengthened with an average audience share of 41%, a three-point increase from last March’s 38%, while GMA lost a point to 32% from 33%. This was mainly driven by the performance on weekdays by “It’s Showtime,” which gained a national TV rating of 13.7%, beating “Eat Bulaga” (12.4%).
ABS-CBN also remained strong in the morning (6AM-12NN) with an audience share of 37% vs. GMA’s 32%, and in the late afternoon (3PM-6PM) with 36% vs. GMA’s 29%.
