Minute To Win It - Philippines Version

Do you think you can knock over a pyramid of beverage cans using rubber bands or pull all tissues out of a box one by one, using only one hand – all under 60 seconds? Complete tasks like these using everyday household items in less than one minute and you can win P1 million in ABS-CBN’s newest game show “Minute to Win It.”

From the international production company that brought you the local versions of “The Biggest Loser” and “MasterChef,” “Minute to Win It” made waves in the United States and around the world for its highly addictive and nerve-wracking games that challenge ordinary people to hone their skills for a chance to change their lives. It has been franchised in 40 countries, including Australia, India, and the United Kingdom.

The Philippine version of “Minute to Win It” will be hosted by Luis Manzano. Contestants take part in a series of challenges that utilize readily available items, in less than 60 seconds each. With each level increasing in difficulty and cash prize, contestants will have to decide if they stop playing and take the money they’ve earned, or continue for a shot at P1 million.

Try-outs for the game show will open on January 7 and 8, 8AM at the ABS-CBN Center Road in Quezon City to people 18 years old and above. Interested participants are encouraged to practice at home the games mentioned above.

Challenges that also await participants also include fanning three raw eggs with a pizza box into a pre-designated area on the other side of the stage, stacking eight octagon bolts on top of each other using a barbecue stick to form a tower that must be freestanding for three seconds, tossing a water bottle and getting it to land upright on a table five feet away, and sucking candies with a straw and placing them one at a time on straws standing vertically.

Watch out for “Minute to Win It” this January on ABS-CBN. For updates on the program, visit www.abs-cbn.com.

Aside from winning the ratings game, “Walang Hanggan” also conquered the popular microblogging site Twitter as hashtags #WalangHangganFinale, Katerina, Paulo Avelino, and RIP Daniel became worldwide trending topics due to the numerous tweets of TV viewers about the touching scenes of Daniel (Coco) and Katerina’s (Julia) deaths.

ABS-CBN rules TV ratings nationwide in July

ABS-CBN Corporation, the country's largest and leading multimedia conglomerate, continued its lead in TV ratings among urban and rural homes across the country for the month of July, wrestling daytime leadership (6AM to 6PM) from rival station and maintaining its consistent supremacy on primetime (6PM to 12 MN) when most Filipinos watch TV and advertisers put a larger chunk of their investment in to reach more consumers efficiently.

Data from Kantar Media show that ABS-CBN obtained an average national audience share of 42% for total day or a 12-point lead versus GMA’s 30%, which suffered a two-point decline in viewership last month.

Kantar Media is a leading television (TV) audience measurement provider with capabilities in gathering TV viewing data in both digital and analog platforms. It now has total of 6.315 million homes in rural areas across the Philippines (North Luzon, Central Luzon, South Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao) added to its existing 8.820 million homes in urban areas, bringing the total TV universe to 15.135 million homes nationwide. Kantar Media’s audience panel now covers and represents 100% of the total Philippine TV viewing population.

For the entire month of July, ABS-CBN surged ahead of its competitors in national daytime with an average audience share of 37%, higher by four points than GMA's 33%. More notably, the country's highest rating daytime program "Be Careful with My Heart" on ABS-CBN even had more viewers than GMA's primetime shows. ABS-CBN’s “Be Careful With My Heart” rated at 19.7% as compared to GMA primetime programs “Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho” (15.9%), “Luna Blanca” (15.7%) and “Makapiling Kang Muli” (14.3%).

And when primetime clocks in, ABS-CBN viewership soared to 49% or almost twice the number of households tuning to GMA that had 27% share. ABS-CBN also continued its winning streak across other territories in primetime. In Metro Manila, ABS-CBN beat its rival with an average primetime audience share of 37% vs GMA’s 32%.

In total Balance Luzon (areas in Luzon outside of Mega Manila), ABS-CBN's primetime audience share hit 51% vs GMA’s 27%. The VisMin regions remained to be Kapamilya territories with ABS-CBN hitting an average primetime audience share of 58% in the Visayas compared to GMA’s 23%, and 64% in Mindanao or four times GMA’s primetime audience share of 16%.

This dominance was mainly driven by ABS-CBN’s weeklong top-caliber primetime offerings that continue to gain significant increases as more and more viewers watch them on both weekday and weekend nights. ABS-CBN made a clean sweep taking all 15 out of the top 15 slots in Kantar Media’s list of most watched programs for July.

“Walang Hanggan” continues to dominate the whole country as the number one program, hitting an average national TV rating of 39.2%, followed by leading weekend program “MMK” with a close 38.2% and royal teleserye “Princess and I” with 36.6%. “TV Patrol,” on the other hand, is still the undisputed and number one primetime newscast as it scored a national TV rating of 31.8% as opposed to rival “24 Oras” with only 17.5%.

ABS-CBN's morning drama series “Be Careful with Heart” topped all daytime programs, including independent blocktimer “Eat Bulaga” which only hit an average of 15.8%. The drama series secured the last spot in the top 15 with an average national TV rating of 19.7%.

Weekend programs also proved to be strong contenders in the ratings game as they occupied the 5th to 10th slots in the top 15. These includes “Wansapanataym” (31%), “PBB Teen Edition 4 (Saturday)” (26.6%), “Rated K” (26.5%), “Kapamilya Deal or No Deal” (25.3%), “The X Factor Philippines (Saturday)” (24.8%), and “Goin Bulilit” (24.3%).

Other Kapamilya programs in the top 15 are “Lorenzo’s Time” (22.7%), “Aryana” (22.7%), “Sarah G Live” (20.4%), and “TV Patrol Weekend” (19.8%) ABS-CBN registered a net income of P2.4 billion for the full year 2011, while news media reported that GMA Network net income plummeted to P1.72 billion in the same period.

Kantar Media, a multinational market research group that specializes in audience measurement in more than 80 countries, has 26 TV networks, ad agencies, and pan-regional networks subscribing to its ratings services. Among its current subscribers are ABS-CBN, NBN, Sky Cable, J. Romero and Associates, 720ConsumerConnect, Starcom, OMD, PhD, Mediacom, Mindshare, MEC, Maxus, Universal McCann, Wellmade Manufacturing Corporation, Brand Ideas, and MPG Havas. They also include pan-regional networks like CSM Media Inc., Fox International Channels, Star HK, Discovery, AXN, HBO, MTV, Sony Pictures Television International, Celestial Tiger, and A&E Television Network. Among these, the following subscribe to both urban and rural TV audience measurement: ABS-CBN, Brand Ideas, MPG Havas, and 720ConsumerConnect.

ABS-CBN shifted to Kantar Media/TNS after filing a case vs. AGB Nielsen Media Research for failing to comply with its request to investigate alleged cheating and data tampering in TV ratings. The case is still pending in court contrary to claims by GMA, which is not a party to the case, that it has been resolved.

X Factor Philippines Final 12 Slots - Who Will Make It?

The country’s biggest musical event of the year “The X Factor Philippines” finally named the top 20 contestants who will advance to the Judges’ Homes round of the competition.

Making it to the list of Boys (solo male performers 16-25 yrs old) are Anton AntenorCruz, Jeric Medina, Michael Pangilinan, Gabriel Anciano Maturan, and Kedebon Colim.

Allen Jane Sta. Maria, Jerrianne Mae Templo, KZ Tandingan, Abigail Mendoza, and Angelica Prado made it to the Girls (solo female performers 16-25 yrs old) category.

Contestants aged 26 and above also prove to be strong contenders with Joan Da, Paulo Castro, Cristine Ledesma, Mark Mabasa, and Modesto Taran comprising the Over 25s (solo performers 26 yrs old and above).

Completing the top 20 are the Groups (16 yrs old and above) namely Daddy’s Home, 5th Avids, Take Off, Sweet Bliss, and Lucky Girls. The Lucky Girls are composed of five different solo female performers who didn’t quite make the cut in the Girls category. Judge-mentors Martin Nievera, Gary Valenciano, Charice, and Pilita Corrales saw a lot of potential in them that they decided to merge them in one group so as to advance to the next round.

All 20 contestants will join their respective group mentors in their houses or the mentor’s location of choice where they will be thoroughly trained to become better performers. The competition definitely gets more exciting and eliminations gets even more dramatic as only 12 contestants— three from each category— shall advance to the next and final round.

Who will mentor the Boys, Girls, Over 25s, and Groups? Who will make the cut and who will bid goodbye as the judge-mentors finally name the top 12 finalists who must impress the public via the live shows?

Don’t miss the country’s biggest and grandest musical event of the year, “The X Factor Philippines,” with KC Concepcion as host, every Saturday, after “MMK,” and every Sunday, after “Sarah G Live” on ABS-CBN.
