It’s Showtime Teddy Corpuz urged the netizens to stop escalating the competition between their noontime show and TV5’s Eat Bulaga.
In his tweet, Teddy reacted to some netizens who were making comments on how It’s Showtime would surpass Eat Bulaga when it comes to television ratings now that the Kapamilya Show was part of GMA Network.
According to him, both television shows have the same goal to entertain the people, and not every day does that show lead the rating competition.
“Yung pinag aaway nyo kami, pero bakit di nalang tangkilikin parehas? Yes may competition… minsan talo, minsan panalo. Parehong gumagawa at nag nanais mapasaya kayo. Kung di ka masaya sa isa, eh di dun ka sa kabila at wag ka na lang manira. Focus ka sa tv mo at wag sa tv ng kalaban mo,” he wrote.

Most netizens agreed with Teddy’s opinion and even received praise from some Eat Bulaga fans.
“Ang sarap naman pakinggan galing mismo sayo. Tama lahat ng sinabi mo Kuya Ted. Maaaring nasa isang kumpetisyon kayo pero lagi dapat binabalikan yung end goal… MAPASAYA ANG PILIPINO. As a solid Dabarkad, I am happy with ShowTime. Mas marami, mas masaya. Congratulations po,” netizen Chris said.
“Tama po kayo, dapat nga walang mga negative comments, maging masaya nalang po sana, hindi yung magsisiraan pa. Ang mahalaga nagpapasaya tayo ng dalawang noontime show,” netizen Raneil commented.
In the first episode of It’s Showtime on GMA Network on April 6, the Kapamilya show surpassed Eat Bulaga in advertisement and social media viewership.
