ABS-CBN Entertainment has surpassed 55 million subscribers on YouTube, extending its lead as Southeast Asia's most-subscribed media and entertainment channel on the video-sharing platform.
As of July 3, the channel has accumulated 76 billion lifetime views, according to data from Tubular and YouTube Analytics.
The milestone highlights how audiences have continued to follow ABS-CBN's programs online, helping the company build one of the region's largest entertainment channels on YouTube despite no longer operating a free-to-air television network.
Among the programs available on the platform are the primetime series "Coco Martin's Sigabo," "Blood vs Duty," and "The Alibi: Ang Buong Katotohanan," along with "It's Showtime," "ASAP XP," "TV Patrol," "Kapamilya Deal or No Deal," and "Everybody Sing."
The network has also expanded its lineup of digital-first offerings through YouTube-exclusive programs such as the celebrity podcast "Hot Takes," Melai Cantiveros' Bisaya talk show "Kuan on One," and "The Next Big Band," ABS-CBN's first music docu-reality series produced exclusively for YouTube.
The latest milestone reflects the continued support of viewers for ABS-CBN's programs, allowing the company to reach new heights on digital platforms years after losing its broadcast franchise.
