C-drama Ratings and Celeb Rankings (week starting Aug 20)
Story of Yanxi ends at a high
For a web drama that started out surprisingly good, Story of Yanxi Palace impresses until the very end and keeps its place as the number one drama online in spite of competition from Ashes of Love and the newly-premiered Ruyi’s Royal Love in the Palace which settled for third on its first week.

TV ratings have yet to see any improvement as all shows fall below 1.0% except for Ashes of Love which challenges another series high with CSM52 ratings of 1.5%. The Evolution of Our Love ranks in second with CSM52 ratings of 0.8% and 0.6% on its two channels. Mr. Nanny has replaced the show now that it’s ended and continues to rank in second.

Last but not the least, Leo Luo Yunxi finally joins Ashes of Love co-stars Deng Lun and Yang Zi on the weekly celeb list. Nie Yuan also makes the list to join his Story of Yanxi Palace empress Qin Lan. Wu Jinyan should be on here, she’s such a regal Empress.
