Production

After the success of the television adaptation of Ang Probinsyano, Batang Quiapo was pegged by various news outlets as Martin's likeliest next project and a possible new TV series. Rumors of the possible TV adaptation of Batang Quiapo began when the film's theme, Doon Lang, was performed by Martin in a "duet" with Fernando Poe Jr. as the clip of the scene from the film was being played;[10] said scene originally featured Poe and Maricel Soriano singing in a duet.[11][12] Martin had expressed interest in adapting more of FPJ's works for film and/or television,[13] as he adapted another Poe classic Carlo J. Caparas' Ang Panday[14] which was an entry into the 2017 Metro Manila Film Festival.[15]

However, the adaptation became uncertain due to Ang Probinsyano's continued extension[16] until its finale on August 12, 2022.[17]

On December 5, 2022, Martin is confirmed to star, direct, write, and to co-produce (the first in his showbiz career) in the Batang Quiapo remake alongside Poe's daughter, Lovi Poe and Charo Santos.[2][3][4]

Principal photography commenced on January 9, 2023, the same day of the celebration of the Feast of the Black Nazarene.[18][19]

Soundtrack

The series' opening theme song, "Batang Quiapo", is sung by various Filipino rap artists—Smugglaz, Bassilyo, CrazyMix, Flict-G, Kial, MastaFeat, Jonas, and Pistolero[c]—and a cover of Rico J. Puno's "Kapalaran" is sung by Gary Valenciano.[20]

Reception

Batang Quiapo was a success upon its debut. The pilot week has generated over 44 million digital views across all online platforms and peaked with 341,509 live concurrent viewers on YouTube. The official tag also became the No. 1 trending topic on Twitter nationwide.[21] On May 30, 2023, the series drew 408,614 live concurrent viewers on YouTube.[22]

Ratings

According to Kantar Media, the pilot episode debuted to a rating of 21.4%, and rose to 22.6% on February 15 (beating its rival Maria Clara at Ibarra with 19.1% and 19.6%, respectively).[23][better source needed]

Despite limited reach on free-to-air, AGB Nielsen Philippines reported that the pilot week of the series gave a positive feedback on the viewers with 12.5% pilot episode rating on February 13, 2023, placing it in the 3rd spot of the rating board and 13.8% rating on February 15, placing on the 2nd spot of the rating board (compared to Maria Clara at Ibarra's 12.5%).[24][25][23]

Muslim stereotype controversy

A day after its debut, the series' creators apologized to the Muslim community due to a scene where Martin's character Tanggol sought the help of his Muslim friend Abdul–portrayed by Rez Cortez–as he was being pursued by the police. Tanggol took refuge in the company of armed Muslim men whom the police were hesitant to take action due to fear of retribution. A number of Muslim Filipinos took offense and criticised the portrayal as reinforcing negative stereotypes against them,[26] with some calling for a boycott of the series.[27] MTRCB later released a statement on the said controversy.[28] Senator Robin Padilla–a prominent Filipino Muslim–also issued a statement regarding the episode, assuring people that Martin did not have any "ill intentions" and appealed to fellow Filipino Muslims for understanding and forgiveness.[29]
