QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – In a recent editorial, Maria Ressa’s Rappler suggested that Filipinos “deserve better” when it comes to noon-time shows like Tito, Vic & Joey’s “EAT BULAGA.”
Rappler said viewers deserve better than the show’s 43 years of toilet humor done at the expense of people with disability, LGBTs and women, to name a few.
Tito, Vic and Joey hit back at Rappler saying the world deserves better than their boss Maria Ressa when it comes to the Nobel Peace Prize.
Perhaps, in the spirit of peace and unity, TVJ and Rappler should exchange Olive branches. After all, they seem to deserve each other!
QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – It does not pay to ignore orders from the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
The day after MTRCB imposed a 12-day suspension of “It’s Showtime,” ABS-CBN announced that the noon-time show will air today. (The suspension was due to a previous episode showing hosts Vice Ganda and Ion Perez erotically licking some cake icing in front of kids.)
Well, MTRCB Chair Lala Sotto, daughter of Tito Sotto, one of the hosts of rival “E.A.T.,” shows that she means business.
After ABS-CBN announced it would still air “It’s Showtime!” today, Sotto issued a supplementary order increasing the suspension from 12 days to 24 days!
Moral of the story: Don’t mess with Lala, unless you’re Tito Sotto!
QUEZON CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Quezon City Bureau) – The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) issued today, Sept. 4, its decision to suspend the live noontime program “It’s Showtime!” for 12 airing days.
The suspension had to do with a recent episode segment where hosts Vice Ganda and real-life partner Ion Perez erotically licked some cake icing in front of kids.
To fill the void during the suspension, MTRCB extended the daily airtime of rival show, “E.A.T.” (Tito, Vic and Joey) by two hours a day for 12 days. TVJ’s show will now run from 12 noon to 4:40 pm.
Moral of the story: it helps to have your daughter (Lala Sotto) be the MTRCB Chair.
