Korean drama 'My Princess' and the remake of 90's soap 'Mula Sa Puso' both failed to beat competitions during its pilot last Monday, March 28, 2011.

These two shows are part of ABS-CBN's Kapamilya Gold plug and the Kapamilya network had high hopes that they will do well in the ratings, but unfortunately, they failed.

AGB Nielsen's figures show that My Princess got 3.4% people rating in Mega Manila as against GMA 7's 'Temptation Of Wife' while 'Mula Sa Puso' garnered 5.9%, almost half of the ratings scored by 'Magic Palayok' on GMA 7.

Both shows also failed to at least enter the Top 10 Programs Ranking.

Meanwhile, GMA 7 attempted to reclaim primetime supremacy last Monday when Richard Gutierrez returned as Captain Barbell.

With a pilot rating of 13.9%, 'Captain Barbell' was able to beat rival programs shown on the same timeslot ('Mutya' 13.5%, 'Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin' 13.6%), however it failed to beat 'Mara Clara' which still leads in the over-all primetime rankings with 16% rating.

If you notice, no ABS-CBN shows have made it to the Top 10 Daytime Programs.

GMA 7 somehow has a stronger primetime line-up now as the ratio in the Top 10 primetime program rankings has become 6:4, 6 for GMA and only 4 for ABS-CBN.

However, the 2011 'Captain Barbell' still failed. Why? Because the 2006 Captain Barbell really had overwhelming pilot rating of 37.6 (household rating) while the 2011 version only has 25% household rating.

And when compared to the pilot ratings of other primetime shows this 2011, Captain Barbell is only ranked 3rd and 'Dwarfina' even posted much higher debut rating.
