So these are the Mediacorp shows we watched last year.
The long-running English family drama Kin and the Rui En-starring supernatural drama Hello From the Other Side were the most-watched Mediacorp dramas last year, according to data compiled by SG-TAM (Singapore Television Audience Measurement).
Kin, which premiered in October 2018, was not only Mediacorp’s most-watched English drama, it also topped the overall list of English-language programmes. Sex sells too. Joanne Peh’s raunchy Last Madame, Mediacorp’s first M18 drama, was a big draw as well.

Over on the Chinese-language side, Hello from the Other Side, the underworld-set drama starring Rui En — in her first drama since 2017’s Have a Little Faith — as a grim reaper, was the most-watched Chinese drama.
But the drama, co-starring Shaun Chen, didn’t crack the overall list of Chinese-language programmes, where variety specials such as Star Awards, Star Search and SPD Charity Show reigned supreme.
