“Steady rise wins the prize.”
That perfectly describes the recent success of the Kapamilya action-political drama “Pamilya Sagrado,” which has finally broken the tie and surpassed its Kapuso rival “Widows’ War” in the aggregated TV ratings race.
According to the latest Nielsen NUTAM People survey reports, “Pamilya Sagrado” claimed its first victory over GMA Network’s “Widows’ War.”
On Monday, August 26, the teleserye starring Piolo Pascual and Kyle Echarri achieved an 8.8 percent rating, matching its all-time high first recorded on August 12. This score put “Pamilya Sagrado” 0.6 percent ahead of “Widows’ War,” which posted an 8.2 percent rating.
However, the following day, Tuesday, August 25, the rival primetime shows tied again, both garnering an 8.4 percent rating and sharing the number five spot on the overall ratings chart.
Prior to its fresh win, the two shows figured in a tight race in the previous week.
On Monday, August 19, “Widows’ War” registered a significant lead with a 9.4 percent rating compared to “Pamilya Sagrado’s” 8.2 percent.
By Tuesday, August 20, “Pamilya Sagrado” began to close the gap, posting an 8.3 percent rating, just 0.6 percent below “Widows’ War’s” 8.9 percent.
On Wednesday, August 21, “Widows’ War” maintained its 8.9 percent rating, while “Pamilya Sagrado” slipped slightly to 8.2 percent.
Thursday, August 22, saw “Widows’ War” pulling ahead again with a 9.9 percent rating, while “Pamilya Sagrado” held at 8.3 percent.
Finally, on Friday, August 23, both shows saw a decline in ratings, with “Widows’ War” dropping to 8.6 percent and “Pamilya Sagrado” decreasing to 7.8 percent.
“Pamilya Sagrado’s” rise in ratings can be attributed to its increasingly captivating storyline and plot twists, as Moi (Kyle) attempts to clear his name with the help of Vice President Raphael Sagrado (Piolo). However, their efforts are thwarted by the cunning schemes of Raphael’s father, Jaime (Tirso Cruz).
With a new chapter set to unfold next week, viewers can expect more action and revelations that are sure to keep them glued to their screens.
