Phenomenal TV drama “Walang Hanggan,” which Filipinos religiously followed for nine months, ended its successful run by topping the top 15 with a national TV rating of 36.4%.

ABS-CBN’s new family drama series “Ina, Kapatid, Anak” (27.8%) and romantic teleserye “A Beautiful Affair” (23.9%) also made a strong entrance to the top 15 by bagging the 6th and 13th spots respectively.

“TV Patrol,” on the other hand, is still the Philippine’s undisputed number one newscast with an average TV rating of 31.1% or 13 points higher than GMA’s “24 Oras” (17.7%).
