‘May Bukas Pa’ Debuts at No. 1 Nationwide

If GMA-7 dominated the Top 4 in Mega Manila’s primetime race, it’s a different story nationwide as ABS-CBN programs occupied the Top 4 spots.


The newest kapamilya drama series, “May Bukas Pa,” garnered an amazing 36.9 percent to top the primetime race nationwide. Placing second was “I Love Betty La Fea” with 35.4% and the third placer was TV Patrol World with 31.7 percent. Former top-placer “Tayong Dalawa” settled in fourth place with 28.3 percent.

May Bukas Pa, formerly titled Marcelino, is a drama series which aims to give hope and inspiration amid the current crisis. It stars Zaijan Jaramilla as Santino.

Meanwhile, GMA’s newest series “Ang Babaeng Hinugot sa Aking Tadyang” premiered Monday night with a nationwide score of 26.3% which is only good for fifth place. This is the third primetime series topbilled by rumored couple Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes after Marimar and Dyesebel.
