Temptation of Wife rules nationwide ratings

MANILA, Philippines - GMA 7’s Temptation of Wife continues to dominate its timeslot with increasing high numbers nationwide, according to Nielsen TV Audience Measurement.

The Kapuso Network’s Pinoy adaptation of the Korean series has been garnering critical acclaim since its debut, delivering consistent high ratings not only in viewer-rich Urban Luzon and Mega Manila but also across National Urban Philippines.

Based on household data recorded in National Urban Philippines from Dec. 1, 2012 to Jan. 4 (Dec. 23 to Jan. 4 based on overnight readings), Temptation of Wife registered 19.6 percent household rating. Using the assumption of an estimated five viewers per TV household, Temptation of Wife’s margins of 1.2 points and 6.5 points translate to more than 500,000 viewers and almost three million viewers, correspondingly.

The primetime series likewise led in Mega Manila, which represents 59.5 percent of rural TV households in the country, after generating a 22.9 percent household rating.

This week, Angeline (Marian Rivera) continues to lure Marcel (Dennis Trillo) into her schemes. She steals his car keys and when Marcel returns to the restaurant, he is shocked to see Angeline inside his car.

Angeline asks Marcel to help her find a place since he’s in real estate business. Marcel gives in to her request and takes her to a condominium unit. As he is about to leave, he will hear someone taking a shower. How will Angeline seduce Marcel? Will he fall into her trap and get caught by Heidi (Glaiza de Castro)?

Temptation of Wife airs weeknights after Pahiram ng Sandali on GMA Telebabad.
