"Iglot", which stars mostly ex-Kapamilya talents such as Claudine Barretto, Jolina Magdangal, Marvin Agustin, Pauleen Luna, Patrick Garcia and Luis Alandy, scored a pilot rating of 20.5% nationwide (Kantar Media) and 12.6% in Mega Manila (AGB Nielsen).



It was not the most-watched program last Monday but it was able to beat ABS-CBN's "100 Days To Heaven" in Mega Manila and pull up the (already high) ratings of 'Amaya' which ranked #1 last Monday, from being 4th only last Friday.
