If two primetime series ended last Friday, July 11, two shows immediately replaced them last night, July 14: ABS-CBN's Iisa Pa Lamang and GMA-7's Codename: Asero.

Codename: Asero opened explosively when it posted a rating of 40.1 percent to grab the second place behind top-rater Dyesebel's 40.5 percent. This Richard Gutierrez-Heart Evangelista starrer replaced Robin Padilla's Joaquin Bordado.

Meanwhile, Iisa Pa Lamang—which boasts a powerhouse cast of dramatic stars led by Claudine Barretto, Diether Ocampo, and Gabby Concepcion—opened with a modest 24.3 percent to take the No. 7 spot. Iisa Pa Lamang was the replacement of the recently concluded Lobo of Piolo Pascual and Angel Locsin.

24 Oras and Ako Si Kim Samsoon took the third and fourth spots.

ABS-CBN's primetime newscast TV Patrol World became the highest-rated Kapamilya program when it placed sixth overall by virtue of its 25.9 percent rating.

Four other Kapamilya shows—The Singing Bee, My Girl, Pinoy Dream Academy, and Wheel of Fortune—occupied the rest of the Top 10.

Magdusa Ka was the leader in the daytime race with 24.2 percent; followed by Gaano Kadalas ang Minsan (22.7 percent), Daisy Siete (21.5 percent); Eat Bulaga! (20 percent), and Pilipinas, Game KNB? (19.1 percent) to complete the Top 5.

ABS-CBN's special coverage of Miss Universe 2008, which was won by Miss Venezuela, ranked seventh with 16.7 percent.
