The Kapuso Network’s overall lead was mainly driven by its steadily improving numbers in the morning and afternoon blocks. GMA’s 29.4 percent won against rival’s 26.3 percent in the morning block, while its 38.4 percent performance in the afternoon block was clearly ahead of competition’s 30.9 percent. GMA similarly ruled in the viewer-rich areas of Urban Luzon and Mega Manila. In Urban Luzon, GMA recorded a 37.2 percent average total day people audience share, which bested ABS-CBN’s 29.5 percent. GMA was also the clear winner in Mega Manila (official data from February 1 to 22) with 38.1 percent while its rival only managed to get 27.5 percent. Notably, GMA has now clinched the ratings lead in Urban Visayas with 35.7 percent average total day people audience share versus ABS-CBN’s 34.1 percent.
