Singapore– Monday night saw AXN continue its dominance as the top English general entertainment channel in Singapore and Malaysia. AXN’s highly anticipated new action thriller, Quantico, was the highest rating program of the day on English Pay TV channels and the most watched series premiere on English GE channels in the past 12 months for both territories.
Quantico, which airs exclusively on AXN within 12 hours of the U.S., follows a diverse group of hotshot rookies recruited to the FBI and stars Indian superstar Priyanka Chopra. It is a highly sophisticated whodunit; with the first episode ending in a cliff-hanger, setting the tone for much more drama to come in the rest of the series.
During the 9:45pm Quantico premiere in Singapore, AXN was the #1 channel on StarHub dominating with a 75% share out of 15 English GE channels. Similarly in Malaysia, AXN was the #1 English channel on Astro during the 10.05pm premiere, commanding a dominant 57% share out of 10 English GE channels.
