Willie Revillame’s TV comeback with “Wil To Win” has struggled to gain traction with Filipino viewers, suffering a significant loss against its rival program “Family Feud.”

According to the latest Nielsen NUTAM People survey, “Wil To Win” recorded low ratings during its pilot week, with a substantial gap compared to the Kapuso family gameshow “Family Feud.”

On Monday, July 15, the TV5 variety show registered a rating of 2.7, placing 21st on the overall ratings chart. In contrast, “Family Feud” posted a rating of 9.7, securing the fifth spot on the ratings board.

The following day, Tuesday, July 16, “Wil To Win” saw a decline in ratings, dropping by 0.2 percent to 2.5 and falling to the 23rd position. “Family Feud” also dropped to the eighth spot but maintained a significant lead with a rating of 8.5 percent.

On Wednesday, July 17, “Wil To Win” further declined, posting a 0.5 percent decrease to 2.0, sliding down to the 25th position. Conversely, “Family Feud” increased by 0.5 percent to 9.0 percent and maintained its top position on the ratings board.

However, on Thursday, July 18, “Wil To Win” showed a slight recovery, increasing by 0.4 percent to 2.4 percent. Despite this, “Family Feud” remained dominant with a 7.0 percent lead after recording a rating of 9.4 percent.

With its low performance in the ratings race, Willie Revillame has been vocal about his frustrations. In one live episode, Revillame downplayed “Family Feud’s” rating lead, stating that true ratings come from their loyal audience who continue to support the show. He also had another live TV outburst, criticizing his staff for production errors.

 

Can “Wil To Win” manage to reverse the tide and improve in the ratings game, or will it continue to lag behind, overshadowing Revillame’s much-anticipated TV return?
