Highlighting a wide variety of TV content!!
Channel 8 Thailand delivered a stellar performance, reaching a two-year high of 0.419 in average ratings. House of the Dark Shadows (Reuan Rom Ngiw), a Thai drama whose final episode just aired, boosted the channel’s rating from the beginning to the finish, with the most viewers of any Channel 8 show. The TV show quickly established itself as one of the top five programs. Furthermore, news and boxing shows improved the total rate. It is predicted that the overall number of viewers across all platforms would surpass 50 million.
Nongluk Ngamroj, Head of Channel 8, stated that “despite all the obstacles and challenges amid the COVID-19 crisis, long vision and unrivalled experience in the entertainment business enabled Channel 8 to put up a defense and draw a crisis solution plan swiftly. The four-legged chair strategy allowed us to generate money from advertising, sell goods through RS Mall or the company’s e-commerce channels, and offer content through Channel 8’s official account and other partners. The primary approach is to gain access to the real lifestyle and provide the right material for the appropriate target groups. We were also able to reach the target groups by displaying the right content at the right timing. Our content is appropriately positioned in each channel for simple access. As a result, Channel 8’s total ratings increased by 15% as a result of the enormous popularity of the Thai drama House of the Dark Shadows (Reuan Rom Ngiw), which received positive response on the screen and on social media.”Interesting programs in the second half of the year are listed below.
