Rated Korina, formerly Rated K, is a Philippine television news magazine show broadcast by ABS-CBN, TV5 and Kapamilya Channel. Hosted by Korina Sanchez, it aired on the network's Sunday evening line-up from May 30, 2004 to May 3, 2020, replacing Sharon and was replaced by Iba 'Yan. The show returned on TV5 on October 24, 2020, followed by a broadcast on Kapamilya Channel on June 19, 2021, replacing Super Kapamilya Blockbusters.

Premise

[edit]
Korina Sanchez serves as the host.

The program includes gripping stories on national issues, in-depth interviews with the most notable figures and newsmakers, as well as touching pieces on regular Filipinos who have had exceptional experiences. In addition to supporting those in need, the show is well-known for its signature initiative, the "Korina's Handog Tsinelas Campaign," which strives to improve the lives of millions of Filipino children one pair of slippers at a time.[1]

History

[edit]

Rated Korina was launched as Balitang K in 1996 as an offshoot of the Balitang K segment of TV Patrol when Sanchez replaced Mel Tiangco after the latter was suspended from the network until Noli de Castro became the sole anchor of the said newscast in the same year.

The program was aired every Sunday night on ABS-CBN's Yes Weekend! block. It aired a replay telecast on DZMM TeleRadyo every Monday at 2:00 PM and Tuesday at 1:00 AM, and on Jeepney TV every Wednesday at 4:30 PM, It also aired worldwide via TFC. The program is similar in style and presentation to the defunct news magazine show Balitang K which was also hosted by Sanchez herself.

On August 11, 2019, Rated K was moved to Goin' Bulilit's timeslot of 6:30 pm to give way for iWant Originals. The show was temporarily suspended on May 3, 2020, due to the ABS-CBN shutdown because of the cease and desist order of the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC), following the expiration of the network's 25-year franchise, which granted on March 30, 1995.

Rated K was officially cancelled, having been excluded from the programming lineup of Kapamilya Channel and replaced by Iba 'Yan, hosted by Angel Locsin. Sanchez and its staff continued the program as an online show utilizing their social media accounts.

The show moved to TV5 and was retitled as Rated Korina (after the former DZMM radio program), after Sanchez signed a contract with Brightlight Productions on October 7, 2020. The second incarnation of Rated K premiered on the network's Saturday afternoon block on October 24.

The show went on series break on April 24, 2021 until it returned to its original international TV platform, TFC on May 29.

Since June 19 and 20, 2021, the show returned for a new season. It airs fresh episodes on ABS-CBN's Kapamilya Channel and ZOE TV's A2Z every Saturday at 6:30 p.m. with a catch-up airing on TV5 every Saturday at 10:45 p.m. and One PH every Sunday at 7 p.m. It is also available on ABS-CBN's Kapamilya Online Live, replacing the re-runs of Gandang Gabi, Vice!, and We Rise Together and on its OTT platform iWantTFC, and worldwide via The Filipino Channel.

On June 17, 2023, following program changes on Kapamilya Channel and A2Z, the show's production was given back to ABS-CBN Studios and ABS-CBN News after more than two years of being co-produced by Brightlight Productions and due to that, a break bumper for the show was produced for its TV5 airing. The delay telecast on Cignal TV's One PH every Sunday night concluded the next day.

Radio program

[edit]

A radio show entitled Rated Korina was aired on DZMM and cable channel DZMM TeleRadyo from 2012 to 2014. The radio program premiered on January 9, 2012 and ended on January 3, 2014 after almost 2 years of airing and was replaced by Sakto. Sanchez resigned from her radio program to pursue her master's degree at Ateneo de Manila University.
