Panahon Ko 'To! Ang Game Show ng Buhay Ko!

I'm really so excited to watch ABS-CBN's new game show! You know, you would soonly realize that eight or so years ago, you were not the only kid who usually reserved your free time just to watch Anime series like Ghostfighter, Flame of Recca, Monster Rancher, Pokemon, Digimon, Blink, Remy, Power Rangers, Teacher Nube, Doraemon and many more. Remember the times when every kid in town was totally addicted to jolens/ holens, pogs, racecars, beyblades, rubber bands (lastiko), puzzles, and other items being sold in and out of the school premises? I recall how Flames started and what made Jologs a hit at that time (or probably who, at that time, was the most baduy celebrity of all, lol).

Panahon Ko 'To! Ang Game Show ng Buhay Ko! is hosted by Billy Crawford and Luis Manzano

Now that ABS-CBN has come up with this new show, catering to the fun , memorable side of innocence, the company has once and for all proved to everyone how creative, workaholic and efficient its production teams are just to bring out the best programs to the Filipino public worldwide. I can't wait to watch the show's pilot episode! This will surely be a big hit!

Proudly Pinoy, I will definitely say that Panahon Ko 'To! Ang Game Show ng Buhay Ko! will achieve high ratings in its pilot episode. People have been talking about it nowadays.

My Top 10 TV Shows: May 26 - April 2, 2010

Enough with the surveys. It's now time that I feature myself, I mean, my top favorite local shows for last week's local airtime. Among the three biggest tv networks, I decided to pick the best shows which contained enough quality and KSP material to grab my attention and to brighten up my days as well.

I  judge the shows subjectively. I'm not a Kapamilya, Kapuso or Kashake(?). Usually, my mind craves for these shows whenever I feel like I have nothing to do for that period. Rankings change every week so keep updated.

My Criteria:
30% - Personal Impact
10% - Viewership from TV Ratings
30% - Daily Content
30% - Filipino Values Exposed

Rank 10: Face to Face (TV-5)
Rank 9: Banana Split Daily Servings (ABS-CBN)
Rank 8: The Last Prince (GMA-7)
Rank 7: Agua Bendita (ABS-CBN)
Rank 6: 24 Oras (GMA-7) / Rubi (ABS-CBN)
Rank 5: Talentadong Pinoy (TV-5)
Rank 4: PBB Teen Clash of 2010 (ABS-CBN)
Rank 3: TV Patrol World (ABS-CBN)
Rank 2: Pilipinas Got Talent (ABS-CBN)
Rank 1: Showtime (ABS-CBN)

Well, let's just dwell on the prevailing thought that Showtime is the most entertaining and value-rich show for this week. Haha, it really evokes Filipino pride. I feel incomplete whenever I miss it. Lol.

AGB Nielsen TV Ratings - Metro Manila (March 8, 2010)

Kapuso network starts with a bang as it derails Kapamily's Wowowee from leading the list. Seven Kapuso shows entered the list, while four Kapamilya shows registered, one of which is the live telecast of the 82nd Oscar Awards. Kapuso network's Ina, Kasusuklaman Ba Kita defeats competitive Magkano ang Iyong Dangal with 2.1% edge. Even without the presence of Kapamilya's Showtime, Kapuso's Diz Iz It ! still hang on the edge of a cliff waiting for the right downturn.

The primetime outcome slaps with GMA's lead as Panday Kids and the Last Prince own the two highest spots, defeating Kapamilya's Agua Bendita, Kung Tayo'y Magkakalayo and Habang May Buhay. Kapuso network still maintains its credibility in the field of news and broadcasting as its 24 Oras escorts a 5.0% lead against Kapamilya's TV Patrol World. On the same night, 9.2% more viewers have preferred watching Queen Seon Deok than SNN: Showbiz News Ngayon.

The jumble of places imply the strangest yet coolest competition of the two biggest networks in the Philippines. This also means viewers have already come up with their own taste of entertainment.

AGB Nielsen TV Ratings - Mega Manila (March 8, 2010)

Sunday's daytime competition is as boring as ever, with Kapuso Movie Festival: Sundo catching first in place, followed by Diva ang Unang Birit which defied ABS-CBN's goal to inform the people of the upcoming election, putting Kapamilya's Eleksyon 2010 on the third spot.

The primetime slot draws up some heat, as GMA's 24 Oras Weekend clings in the top 5 ruled by 4 big Kapamilya shows Although defeated by 0.8%, Kapamilya's TV Patrol World leads the bottom 5 dominated by 4 big Kapuso shows. Kapamilya's Pilipinas Got Talent describes what a good monopoly is as it leads a 10% gap from struggling Kapuso's Bandaoke! Rock ‘N Roll To Millions. Kapuso networks intent to win the late night viewership is highly commendable.

It is imminent that collisions between tv shows are not as a boom as before, probably effected by the difference in audience each network targets per show.

Here is the list of top 10 programs/ shows that bested all the others in the two time periods.

AGB Nielsen TV Ratings - Metro Manila (March 6, 2010)

The competition between rival networks heats up as Wowowee and Eat Bulaga!  starts a spark gap of 0.6%. However, the dynamic equilibrium in the daytime period becomes disturbed when TV-5's kiddie Spongebob Squarepants entered.

TV-5 also scrambled the whole listing in the primetime slot when its show, Talentadong Pinoy, gave off a record 30.5%, startling the other two networks. What will be the role of TV-5 in the fluctuating head-on collisions of various big shows? Will its aggression cause another network's retreat? How will the viewers react to this?

Meanwhile, AGB Nielsen TV suggests a rising popularity and competition from a third force, TV-5, which earned competitively high percentage viewers snatching views from the other two networks, ABS-CBN and GMA. It is evident that TV-5's Talentandong Pinoy hit Kapamliya's Pilipinas Got Talent with a 4.8% lead. GMA's Startalk steals the spotlight defeating ABS-CBN's Entertainment Live, and continues to be the most competitive Saturday showbiz talk show in history. Kapuso Network's shows, however, dominate the morning competition with consistent high viewership bashed by TV-5's Spongebob Squarepants and Kapamilya's Showtime. ABS-CBN's Melason in Love brings down GMA's Binibining Pilipinas 2010, hoping that the Melason fever is still on.

AGB Nielsen TV Ratings - Metro Manila (March 5, 2010)

Last Friday's (March 5, 2010) AGB Nielsen TV Ratings Survey revealed the Kapamilya Network's Showtime and Wowowee owning the highest views. Kapuso Network's Eat Bulaga! still struggle in its battle for grasping the first place. Six Kapamilya tv shows dominate the top 10 list during the Daytime competition. However, Kapuso tv shows entrance a fair share in Mega Manila. Evidence of dying competition strikes between  tv shows Diz Iz It! and Showtime, between Diva and Rubi ,and  between Queen Seon Deok and SNN: Showbiz News Ngayon, as a great gap dissolves one for the other. Please see comparative ratings at the bottom end of this report.

Both networks continue to impress the households with an equal number of shows entered in the Primetime slot. Still, ABS-CBN rules the floor with Agua Bendita and Kung Tayo't Magkakalayo besting the others. GMA's 24 Oras proves to be more reliable with a 2.4% lead against rival network's TV Patrol World.

AGB Nielsen TV Ratings - Metro Manila (March 4, 2010)

As supported by the latest AGB Nielsen TV Ratings Survey (Mega Manila viewing only), Agua Bendita remains undefeated as top gainer in the primetime slot last Thursday, March 4, 2010. ABS-CBN's Kung Tayo'y Magkakalayo outruns GMA's Panday Kids with 1.1% more viewers.

For daytime competition, Wowowee still dominates the highest gains with Showtime, also from the Kapamilya network, landing on 2nd place. GMA's noontime show Eat Bulaga lies low on third place.

It can be understood that GMA's reach in the Mega Manila viewership is starting to weaken, as a newly established, aggressive network, TV-5, enters the race. It is predicted that this force will bring a more healthy rivalry and unseen twists in the Philippine media industry.
