Coco Martin shares the secret behind the longevity of “FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano”

  • Coco Martin shared some factors why Ang Probinsyano remains a success after three years on air. 
  • He said that they make sure that the story has different flavors that will make people hooked to the plot.

It has been three years since ABS-CBN‘s primetime hit Ang Probinsyano started and even though it has been a long time since its premiere, the show still receives high ratings every single night.

The series’ main man, Coco Martin, shared that he felt really happy about Ang Probinsyano’s outstanding ratings as it reached 45% nationwide and 46% in rural areas.

“Natutuwa ako. Katulad kahapon itinuturing namin na blessing na mataas ang ratings ng ‘Ang Probinsyano.’ Kahapon nag-45, ngayon nag 46, tapos sa rural. Siguro gustong-gusto lang talaga nila ang topic Pinoy eh.”

He shared one of the secrets why people keep looking forward to every episode of the teleserye.

Coco said that it’s because the show is unpredictable and makes people think as the story unfolds. He said that they also make sure that the sub stories are different from each other.

“Ang ano kasi ng ‘Ang Probinsyano’ unpredictable. Siyempre iniisip na rin namin ang iniisip ng mga tao. Ina-assure namin na ibahin natin ang kuwento; kumbaga bigyan natin sila ng ibang putahe sa gabi-gabing pinapanood nila. Siguro ‘yun ang reason kung bakit sa tatlong taon ay nandiyan pa rin ang mga Pinoy para suportahan kami.”

Ang Probinsyano has also been helping non-active celebrities get back on track and have another chance in the entertainment industry.

“Ang kailangan natin ng bawat tao eh oportunidad. Sabi ko nga nagbabalik-tanaw ako, wala naman tao nagbigay sa akin ng pera. Ang ibinigay sa akin opportunity.”
