It’s Showtime possible to change timeslot to give way to the new show of Eat Bulaga Dabarkads in TV5

TV5 was rumored to be the new home of the newly resigned hosts of Eat Bulaga being led by Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto, and Joey de Leon.

On May 31, 2023, the legendary trio announced that they’re already parted ways with Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc. which is owned by Romeo Jalosjos.

According to a report from Bilyonaryo.com, Bacolod City Mayor Albee Benitez who owns Brightlight Productions already talked with TVJ to handle them amid their possible transfer to TV5.

Meanwhile, the current noontime show of TV5, It’s Showtime led by Vice Ganda may give way to the Dabarkads once they completed the process of transferring networks.

It was reported that It’s Showtime may change their timeslot to the evening so they would not clash with Eat Bulaga.

The two shows compete for ratings in the past years and putting both of them in the noontime slot may not be a wise move for the TV5 management.

It can be recalled that It’s Showtime and Eat Bulaga hosts shared friendly banters in the past weeks, including the birthday greeting of Joey to Vice.

As of writing, TV5 has yet to confirm any talks with TVJ.

Fans are also waiting on the next move of TAPE Inc. who vowed to continue airing Eat Bulaga with their new hosts.

TV host Willie Revillame who just resigned from AllTV was also reportedly being considered to fill the shoes left by the legendary trio.

They’re also expecting a legal battle between TVJ and TAPE for the rights of ‘Eat Bulaga’ branding.

 

Rendon Labador, defends Moira dela Torre: “Babae yan, bakit niyo pinagkakampihan. Ako ang pagtulungan niyo!”

Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador released his most-awaited statement about the issue between Moira dela Torre and Jason Marvin.

In a video published on his social media page, Rendon said that he must be careful from speaking about it because of his sensitivity especially since many people have already been involved in the issue.

He then defended Moira, saying that the singer is still a woman that should be respected.

“Hindi niyo ba naisip na babae parin yan?” said Rendon. “May emosyon yan, tao yan, bakit niyo pinagkakampi-kampihan? Ako ang pagtulungan niyo, wag ‘yung babae pare.”

“Ang mga babae, minamahal yan, anong ginagawa niyo? Mga lalake pa man din kayo, dapat tayo ‘yung nagke-cater sa kanila.” he added.

Rendon then criticized the mindset of Jason for blaming Moira for his decision to avail a ‘happy ending’ spa service.

“Kung gagawa ka ng mali, choice mo yan. Kung sakali man na totoo ‘yung ibinibintang mo doon sa babae, ibig sabihin ay hindi ka marunong magmahal. Nagloko ka Jason, choice mo yan, never na naging kasalanan ng partner mo yan.” he stated.

He then asked the netizens to criticize him instead of Moira and Zack Tabudlo.

Zack admitted that he was affected after being linked to Moira.

“Wag niyo silang idamay, hindi lahat ng tao kasing lakas ko.” he said.

As of writing, the video already received thousands of reactions from netizens.

After all these years na sobra-sobra ang kinita sa main, hindi man lang kami mabigyan ng [respeto] diba?” he said.

“All of a sudden, bigla mo kaming pakikialaman, 44 years, may naiintindihan ka ba sa production? Makakarating ba kami dito kung hindi kami experts dito?” he added.

As of writing, Jalosjos has yet to give any comment on the statement made by Sotto.

In a previous response, TAPE Inc. took a swipe against Sotto and other Eat Bulaga hosts that the show would continue without them.

Motivational Speaker Rendon Labador made his comment about the current issue between Moira dela Torre and Jason Marvin.

In his Facebook story, Labador claimed that he was not planning to speak about the said issue, but decided to do it because of the request made by his followers.

The discussion also escalated after composer Lolito Go, made a lengthy post against Moira.

“Para sa mga netizens na nangungulit sa issue nila Jayson-Moira na mag sabi ako ng opinion: Wala akong pakialam sa dalawa na yan, baka pag umpugin ko pa yan kapag hindi tumigil.” Rendon said.

TAPE Inc. said that Eat Bulaga will continue without TVJ: “Ang pag alis ng mga hosts ay hindi dahilan para tumigil ang pag-ikot ng mundo”

Naging palaban ang Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc. sa naging kanilang pahayag matapos lisanin nina Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto at Joey de Leon ang kanilang kumpanya nitong Mayo 31.

Nitong Sabado ay naglabas ang TAPE ng kanilang pahayag kung saan ay nangako sila na kahit na umalis na ang mga dating host ng Eat Bulaga ay magpapatuloy parin ang ‘isang libo’t isang tuwa’.

Ayon kay CEO ROmeo Jalosjos Jr. ay ikinakalungkot nila ang nangyari sa Eat Bulaga ngunit kailangan parin nilang magpatuloy.

“We want to assure the public and the supporters of the show through its segments that we are committed to providing quality entertainment. It is unfortunate, but life must go on. As with life, we have to accept changes but we have a duty to every Filipino.” ani Jalosjos.

“Abangan niyo ang mga bagong magpapasaya at magpapatibok ng ating mga puso. Aasahan ninyo ang mas masaya, mas nakakaaliw at HIGIT PA SA ISANG LIBO’T ISANG TUWA na Eat Bulaga. patuloy ang Dabarkads na maglilingkot para sa inyo,” dagdag pa niya.

“Ang pag-alis ng mga hosts ay hindi dahilan para tumigil ang pag-ikot ng mundo,” 

Hindi naman nagustuhan ng ilang netizens ang naging pahayag ni Jalosjos na tila hindi nirespeto ang naiambag ng TVJ sa kanilang programa ng ilang dekada.

“Eat Bulaga will never be the same again. The original hosts put in a lot of effort and gave it a unique identity. Even if the show changes its environment, situation, or vibe, the original team of so-called ‘DABARKADS’ is irreplaceable,” ani netizen Jame.

“Parang sa linggo nAPO sila mangyayari diyan. hindi rin natin masisisi TAPE baka ang mahal na talaga ng TF ng TVJ tapos hindi na rin naman 100 % na sila lang ang naghohost. ang sagwa lang ng tagline nila againsr TVJ.. na tuloy ikot ng mundo daw. Ang yabang lang ng design,” sabi ni netizen Lidialyn.

“Dahil po sa mga nangyari, kami po ay magpapaalam na rin sa TAPE Inc. simula ngayong araw, May 31, 2023.” according to the letter addressed to TAPE CEO Romeo Jalosjos Jr. and to EVP for Productions Soraya Jalosjos.

Aside from the said celebrities, the writers, sales, production and cameramen of Eat Bulaga also resigned.

It was also noticeable that the social media pages of Eat Bulaga were still under the custody of the ‘Team Dabarkads’.

There were rumours that all the former staff of the noontime show would transfer temporarily to TV5 while waiting for the contract expiration between TAPE and GMA until 2025.

As of writing, TAPE has yet to give a statement about the decision of most of the staff of Eat Bulaga to leave the show.

It’s also expected that a legal battle would start between TVJ and TAPE for the branding of Eat Bulaga.
