Since fans were not allowed to witness Rudy Fernandez’s burial at Heritage Park yesterday, June 12, millions of Filipinos tuned in to television to watch the funeral, which was covered live both by ABS-CBN and GMA-7. The Kapamilya and Kapuso networks made changes in their afternoon schedule to give way to Daboy’s burial.

But according to the overnight ratings conducted by AGB Nielsen Philippines, more people tuned in to GMA-7’s coverage as proven by its 33.6 percent rating; compared to ABS-CBN’s coverage which generated a rating of 16.7 percent. The Kapuso network’s coverage of Daboy’s burial also became the most-watched daytime program while ABS-CBN’s coverage managed to grab the tenth place.

GMA-7’s SiS and ABS-CBN’s Boy & Kris also allotted their whole program to Daboy’s burial, which boosted the ratings of both morning shows. SiS got 17.2 percent while Boy & Kris got 12.7 percent
 
Daboy’s burial pre-empted some shows of both ABS-CBN and GMA-7.

The Dramarama Sa Hapon block of the Kapuso network—Kaputol ng Isang Awit, Magdusa Ka, and Daisy Siete—occupied the second to fourth slots, while the long-running noontime show Eat Bulaga! took the No. 5 spot. 

In the primetime race, it was business as usual for Dyesebel as it posted a high 42.5 percent; followed by Joaquin Bordado (35.8 percent), Babangon Ako’t Dudurugin Kita (35.3 percent), 24 Oras (31.1 percent), and The Singing Bee (24.2 percent) to complete the Top 5.

The rest of the Top 10 was occupied by Lobo, My Girl, TV Patrol World, Pinoy Dream Academy, and Dalja’s Spring.

This is almost the same ranking in the primetime race last Wednesday, June 11, except for Dalja’s Spring occupying the ninth slot and Pinoy Dream Academy on tenth place.

In the daytime race, Eat Bulaga! returned to No. 1 after a long time with 22.5 percent. It was followed by Daisy Siete, Magdusa Ka, Kaputol ng Isang Awit, and El Cuerpo Deseo.

The theme of this season, as it emerged in the housemates’ experiences, was transformation. To reinforce this, the transition of the PBB house to the Big Dome was animated as one would a transforming robot, very futuristic. There were also blurbs in praise of the housemates’ creatively presented in animation. Clad in shimmering white robes, the Teen Big Four, dressed in their finery, left the big yellow house and headed towards Araneta Coliseum where their fans awaited. They were escorted by Luis and left in a special room until the designated moment of their presentation.

Former housemates John Prats and Mickey Perz opened the celebration with an energized dance number, followed by Gerald Anderson, Kim Chiu and the resident extra-terrestrial Kokey. This was followed by the teen-choreographed performance of the song Ang Sarap ng Buhay sung by Project One. Of course, this was presented by the ex-teen housemates and the house players. Aside from Valerie and Priscilla who were decked with wings as angels, the rest of the teens sported the classic red and white.

Kim, the first Teen Big Winner, performed once again a dance number along with partner Gerald and the rest of the cast of My Girl. The newest Kapamilya and Dream host Billy Crawford also strutted his stuff as teaser for the start of classes in Pinoy Dream Academy. The Dream mentors, headed by Ryan Cayabyab, also made a cameo.

Kuya spent his last moments with the Teen Big Four as he reminded them of their goals when they first expressed their wish to enter his house. With them, he recalled how they initially were and, with more than a hint of nostalgia, walked through their ups and downs that eventually led them to a transformation and to the Big Night — all in a span of almost three months. Kuya expressed his pride in each and reminded them, in true Big Bro fashion, to take along the lessons they learned in the house and to be a good example of and to the Pinoy youth.

Finally, the moment of reckoning has come. After months of smiles, tears, challenges, failures, successes, relationships, heartaches, decisions, growing up… here they were, aptly crowned Teen Big Four. To cheers that they couldn’t help smiling at, they prepared to face the crowd. With 10.91% or 186,523 votes, Beauty was first to step onstage as the PBB Teen 4th Big Placer. Nikki follows suit as PBB Teen 3rd Big Placer, garnering 18.39% or 314,582 votes. With bated breaths, the two boys were left, almost neck-to neck, based at the tally. Robi was awarded the PBB Teen 2nd Big Placer, with 34.39% or 588,115 votes. Finally, with 36.31% or 620,934 votes, Ejay emerged as the PBB Teen Big Winner! Pumped by adrenalin, perhaps, PBB Guardian Big Winner Daddy Erning was able to lift his son several inches off the floor as they celebrate his win. Ejay took home P1,000,000, a condo unit at Château Valenzuela, a business franchise from Crystal Clear drinking water and a Sony Bravia plasma TV.

For those who have faithfully kept track of the housemates this edition, and for those who have expressed active support through their votes, thank you. Don’t stray and be part of the Big Reunion tomorrow night, after Goin’ Bulilit. Stay tuned for the never-before-seen moments to be shown on Uber, same time slot, next week.
