Carlo J. Caparas' Ang Panday, or simply Ang Panday, is a 2016 Philippine action fantasy series broadcast by TV5 and starring Richard Gutierrez as the titular character, alongside Jasmine Curtis-Smith, Bangs Garcia and Sam Pinto. Based on the fictional comics character of the same name, created by Carlo J. Caparas and illustrated by Steve Gan, it aired from February 29 to June 2, 2016, replacing Movie Max 5 and was replaced by Smallville.[1] The series received low viewership due to its continuously shifting timeslot, and after its conclusion, the creative partnership between Viva Communications and TV5 ended in June 2016.[2]
According to AGB Neilsen, the pilot episode gained 5% national ratings, becoming the most watched show on TV5 Network.[3] The series performed poorly in the ratings afterwards due to a shifting timeslot caused by the network prioritizing the live broadcast of PBA games.[4]
