MANILA, Philippines – ABS-CBN’s newest primetime romantic drama series, “Forevermore,” starring Enrique Gil and Liza Soberano is now the Philippines’ number one teleserye as proven by its national TV rating of 27.1% when it premiered on Monday (October 27).
Based on data from Kantar Media, the pilot episode of “Forevermore” ranked second to “TV Patrol” in the overall list of most-watched programs nationwide. Its national TV rating was more than double the ratings of its rival series on GMA, “Hiram na Sandali,” which only garnered 12.8%.
The premiere of the Cathy Garcia-Molina and Ted Boborol-directed series also became the hottest topic online when it captured six out of Twitter’s 10 worldwide trending topics. Topping the list was the shows’s official hashtag #ForevermoreBegins followed by ‘Enrique Gil,’ ‘Liza Soberano,’ ‘Enrique,’ ‘Liza,’ and ‘Quen.’ Direk Cathy and the line ‘Si Yves,’ meanwhile, trended on Twitter Philippines.
“Forevemore” is a unique tale about first love that blossomed between two different people — the rebellious and irresponsible unico hijo of a hotel magnate, Xander(Enrique), and the feisty and hardworking Strawberry Jam Queen of La Trinidad, Benguet, Agnes (Liza).
The newest Kapamilya primetime series is produced by Star Creatives, the same group that brought viewers the hit romantic drama series “Princess and I” and “Got To Believe.”
