Asia’s Got Talent Season 2 took the regional spotlight as the top-rated original production in 2017, securing AXN as the number one channel in its timeslot among all regional pay-TV channels collectively in Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore.

The highly anticipated series, which crowned Indonesia’s spooky illusionist The Scared Riana as the winner in a sizzling Results Show episode last week, reached 9.3 million viewers during its 10-week run across the three markets. Asia’s Got Talent Season 2 consistently dominated the 8:30pm premiere timeslot every Thursday night garnering a whopping 73 per cent share of the English general entertainment genre for the season.*

Virginia Lim, Senior Vice President and Head of Content, Production and Marketing, Sony Pictures Television Networks, Asia said, “AXN has yet again set the benchmark for high quality original productions in Asia that viewers live, breathe and crave. The strong ratings and huge social amplification speak volumes about the emotional chord that Asia’s Got Talent struck with fans as they followed the dreams of the contestants each week. I congratulate The Sacred Riana and all who competed this season, and hope that they leverage the power of AXN and Asia’s Got Talent to further their aspirations.”

Viewers in Malaysia were obsessed with the world’s biggest talent show, helping to secure Asia’s Got Talent Season 2 as the highest rated program across the English general entertainment channels in that market.**

    1. bes unique kasi ang talent nya. andun na ako sayang yung neil na pinoy beatbox artist pero naman lackluster and final performance nya, dmx convalenos are absolutely adorable pero dami na kasing group na kapareho nila ang talent. don't get me wrong ha, bumoto ako sa dmx syempre but I have no problem with the winner, nakaka-amaze sya panoorin

    2. Apir tayo jan 5:14. Unique ang pinakita ni Riana. Although talented ang convalenos at ang lakas ng audience impact, dime a dozen na ang pagsasayaw ng ganon. Si Riana pinagsama magic tricks and horror elements. Kaya naiiba. Plus the fact na she stayed in character until the end. That's already talent right there. She definitely deserved the win.
