ABS-CBN's new primetime soap Tayong Dalawa continues its strong showing, although its rival, GMA-7's Gagambino, slightly recovered Thursday and Friday (January 22 and 23).
Tayong Dalawa—topbilled by Kim Chiu, Gerald Anderson, and Jake Cuenca—climbed to No. 3 last Tuesday and Wednesday (Jan. 20 and 21) but dropped to No. 5 last Thursday and to No. 4 Friday. But last night (Jan. 26), it climbed back to No. 3.
Dennis Trillo's Gagambino, on the other hand, dropped to No. 5 Tuesday and No. 6 Wednesday before crawling back to No. 4 Thursday and No. 3 Friday. Then last night, it slipped back to No. 5.
Rhian Ramos's Lalola topped the primetime race last Tuesday, but Heart Evangelista's Luna Mystika grabbed the lead back Wednesday 'til Friday.
Even Willie Revillame's birthday celebration in Wowowee last Saturday (Jan. 24) could not stop the longest-running noontime show, Eat Bulaga!, from dominating the daytime race in Mega Manila.
Imbestigador maintained its lead over other primetime shows last Saturday with Kapuso, Jessica Soho trailing behind at No. 2.
The see-saw battle between Sunday musical-variety shows SOP Rules and ASAP '09 continues. GMA-7's SOP got the upper hand last Sunday (Jan. 25) while ASAP '09 dropped to second place.
Showbiz Central continues its winning streak by beating rival The Buzz again, 13.9 percent versus 10.7 percent, in the battle of Sunday showbiz talk shows.
Mel & Joey and Kap's Amazing Stories tied for the top spot in the primetime race with an identical 28.1 percent rating. Richard Gomez's Family Feud was a close second with 28 percent.
