Program Ratings

This shall serve as the official source for TNS Philippines program ratings. The lists below shall be updated on a daily basis, from Monday to Friday, providing fresh information for the interested public. Monday updates shall include the top ranking programs for the preceding week, as well as top ranking programs for the previous Friday. Every end of the month, the list shall also include the top ranking programs for the whole month, including weekends.

As of August 6, 2009, we shall be including WHOLE DAY program rankings for MEGA MANILA, BALANCE LUZON, VISAYAS and MINDANAO Please take note that BALANCE LUZON represents NORTH, CENTRAL, and SOUTH LUZON and does NOT include Mega Manila. National program rankings will still be divided between daytime and primetime.

Ratings for a particular day will only be up for 24 hours, after which it will be replaced with the next day's ratings.

Note that the daily program ratings are based on day-after ratings information and are subject to slight changes upon reprocessing for improved sample sizes and validation after every week.

For reference, unit used is household ratings. Daytime refers to shows that fall within the time band of 0500h to 1800h; primetime refers to shows within the 1801h to 2400h time band. In cases where a program breaches the borderline, it is considered to fall within the time band where the majority of the program minutes are located.
