“Saturn 5″ is the most watched lakorn of 2009
Good god! How? Let me sum up the lakorn “Saturn 5″ for you–hot former beauty pageant queens (let me tell you, those Asian Amazon-looking chicas were tall and ‘damn you’ beautiful), tall-good looking Thai guys with guns to complement the Asian Amazon-looking chica actresses who could not act to save their lives, a lot of soldier play, and they were in the jungle most of the time. I didn’t think it was that great but apparently it is the most loved and watched lakorn of the year with an average rating of 19. 1 or an average viewership of 11.814 million viewers. Saturn 5 peaked at the rating of 25.3 (the highest for the year) with 15.715 million viewers. Wow.
There were 5 couples in “Saturn 5″, they included:
1. Eak Rungsiroj & Kwang Fahrung
2. Arnas & Marissa Anita
3. Nam Rapeepat & Grace Karnklao
4. Pai Pathit & Oun Preeyanuch
5. Note Watcharabul & Kam Gawintra
Yea, it was a big group.
Note and Kam
Other lakorns that did well in terms of ratings on Ch7 (I think the reason why other channels were not mentioned in this article was because Ch7 dominated in terms of ratings for 2009):
‘Kom Faek: Checkmate’ starring Noon Woranuch Por Natthawut was the second watched lakorn for 2009 with an average rating of 19 or an average viewership of 11.771 million viewers. It had the highest opening ratings of the year with a rating of 19.9 or a viewership of 12.231 million viewers.
In the comedy category, “Pancake” Khemmanid Jamikorn and “Aum” Patcharapa Chaichuea dominated–Aum in “Jaew Jai Rai gub Khun Chai Taewada (Jaew the wick one and godly Chai” with Pae Arak and Pancake in “Plerng Rak Kam Pop (A love song across the globe)” with New Wongsakorn where Pancake played a country singer. It has a consistent run with an average rating of 16.4 or 10.139 million viewers. “Jaew Jai Rai” did better with a rating of 16.8 or 10.409 viewers.
Pancake’s other big lakorn “Buang Hong” had an average rating of 14. 8 or 9.160 million viewers.
Other biggies for the year included:
“Kwan” Usamanee Waitayanon and Aof Chanapol’s lakorn “Roy Ruk Roy Barp (Trace of love, Trace of Vengeance)” with an average rating of 14.5 or 8.973 million viewers, “Mia Luang (Head Wife) “with an average rating of 14.3 or 8.860 million viewers, Pinky Savika and “Weir” Sukollawat Kanaros’s lakorn “Wong Wian Hua Jai(Love Rotation or Revolving Hearts) with an average of 13.5 or 8.366 million viewers, and lastly mentioned, Pong Nawat and “Tangmoe” Pattarathida Patcharawirapong’s romantic comedy “Dum Kam (Comically Dark)” had an average rating of 13.5 or 8.384 million viewers.

Ch7 kicks ass! They have low quality dramas but very high ratings. A lot of their dramas look dumb and boring [according to teasers and storylines], but when it actually plays out on screen, they’re not too bad. The only drama I loved this year from ch7 was WWHJ. The rest, I didn’t really care for.

LMAO the only lakorn I watched thoroughly from Ch7 was Pancake and New singing lakorn. I admit that was one of the corniest lakorn I have ever seen but I was intrigued and I think that was what kept me from continuing. Hell did that lakorn dragged.

Ch. 7 is beating Ch. 3 this year, which I’m happy for them.
Both channels are great, but either year one gotta beat another; that’s how it is.
Thanks.
