TV5 gains viewership

MANILA, Philippines - TV5’s efforts are indeed paying off, with the growing popularity of the network’s programs reflecting higher viewership shares and a more active social media presence.

According to data from Nielsen Media Research, TV5’s entertainment shows are consistently ranking among the Top 15 programs. Further, the network’s shows are also regularly figuring on Twitter trending topics during the time of airing, proving the shows’ popularity among young and progressive audiences.

Nielsen’s overnight NUTAM data for Nov. 17 listed Wow Mali Pa Rin and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire in the Top 9 to Top 11 ranking. The Kapatid network’s airing of the PBA Alaska Aces vs. Rain or Shine Elasto Painters game also figured in the Top 12.

Viewers and fans are also actively sharing their excitement in social media, often landing the programs on Twitter’s trending topic list.

Last Saturday, the premiere of Jasmine Curtis-Smith’s music show SPINNation generated the most buzz among netizens. Minutes before the show’s airing, it already placed second on Twitter’s trending topics. It eventually topped the charts halfway through the program.

These developments definitely make the network strive harder to offer more quality and groundbreaking programs that encourage more Filipinos to make the switch and enjoy the new brand of entertainment TV5 has to offer.
