Kris Aquino is proving to be ABS-CBN's top drawer as both of her shows topped the daytime and primetime slots among Kapamilya programs. Kris's new game show, Wheel of Fortune, premiered last Jan. 14 at No. 4 with 17.2 percent and it moved to No. 3 the following day, Jan. 15, and held on to it until yesterday, Jan. 17.
Meanwhile, Kris's horror series, Patayin Sa Sindak Si Barbara, is also the best rater among ABS-CBN primetime shows, although it just managed to grab the seventh slot behind six GMA-7 shows.
The Kapuso network's very own horror series, La Vendetta, is enjoying its best numbers yet as it comes to an end tonight, Jan. 18. After opening the week at No. 5, La Vendetta moved to No. 3 on Tuesday and moved again to No. 2 on Wednesday and Thursday.

Kristine Hermosa is world famous
Posted by Filipino Cultured - Art, Entertainment, Culture & Inspiration Blog on Sunday, January 27th, 2008 @ 9:29 am in Entertainment.
Many Filipinos don't realize it, but Kristine Hermosa, Jericho Rosales, Diether Ocampo, and Angelika de la Cruz are world famous, and I'm not just talking about among our own Filipino people living overseas. Their telenovelas are the most popular, highest rating shows in countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Kenya, Ghana, Cameroon, Tanzania, Namibia, and Zamba, where they're all dubbed in the local languages and watched by the local people. Pangako Sa'yo was all the way back in 2000,
but ABS-CBN is exporting it to other countries as The Promise, among other past productions like the one in 2005 with Diether Ocampo and Kristine Hermosa, and they love it. They love Filipino shows, and that should make any Pinoy proud. And I'm so humbled and thankful to our world friends from all those great countries for supporting our country and our products. Besides the presidents and former presidents' wives of course, Kristine Hermosa is probably one of the most recognized Filipina women in the world among non-Filipinos. Here they are being interviewed on Malaysian TV:Kristine Hermosa and Diether Ocampo on Malaysian TV
