Julie Anne San Jose Must Return To Her Music Roots

Image
Julie Anne San Jose ended 2024 on a high note; She is the Calendar Girl for Ginebra San Miguel, The Clash and The Voice Kids were both successful in the ratings, and she's hailed as Aliw Awards Entertainer Of The Year. But one thing I wish for her in 2025 is for her to go back to making music.

GMA's Groundbreaking TV Flops

Image
GMA is known for groundbreaking concept and has found success in introducing new ideas on Television, but they are also home to some of the worst creative ideas. Either bad creative planning or just thinking too much outside the box; these TV Shows failed miserably both in the ratings and on their intended purposes.

The Clash Made The Right Choice This Time

Image
Although listening to the lackluster official winner's song makes me feel like it would have been better to lose, The Clash 2024 made the right choice in selecting the winner. Naya Ambi was crowned the latest Grand Champion of the singing competition, besting Chloe Redondo in the final "One-on-One Clash."

Maging Sino Ka Man Failing In The Rating Race

Image
GMA's new Primetime Teleserye Maging Sino Ka Man has not been so impressive in terms of ratings, it's just the third most-watched show on primetime in its debut week and not even the most-watched GMA primetime program, that honor goes to 24Oras while ABS-CBN's Batang Quiapo is now the undisputed number 1 weekday show after Voltes V legacy ended. What is even more alarming is that the ratings trend for MSKM is on a downward trajectory while Batang Quiapo is having a surge. MagingSinoKaMan's rating is just too low for its timeslot, it got bumped by Royal Blood and even by the afternoon show Abot Kamay Na Pangarap out of the top 3 daily programs. While some may say that it's still in the top 5 programs this is still disappointing considering its stars Barbie Forteza and David Licauco were fresh out of the successful Maria Clara at Ibarra and were highly touted for the show's success and were named the breakout loveteam. With the series being said to be limite...

Am I The Only One Who?: Thoughts On AllOutSundays GMA Anniversary Special

Image
Watching AllOutSundays' dedicated episode for GMA's 72nd Anniversary, I wonder Am I The Only One Who. . . . . . thought AOS had the lamest GMA anniversary special? It looked like just an ordinary episode and actually even worse than a normal episode as it was headlined by comedy segments, Not to mention they didn't even bother to go live. . . . noticed the prods in the opening were taped separately? Julie Anne San Jose and Rita Daniella were able to magically change their outfits after the spot with the Kapuso Love teams, Also, Bea Alonzo and Alden Richards were always on a separate frame and never had any interaction with the other stars in the opening. . . . thought the NSYNC number of Kingdom in the opening was a bit out of sync? Their harmony wasn't good that it sounded like they were singing different songs, not to mention the music arrangements were just off. That being said Am I the only one who. . . . . . thought the girls of Queendom proved they were a...

Julie Anne San Jose's Biggest Collaboration Had A Weird Release

Image
Julie Anne San Jose dropped her new song last Friday, or not really? If you were confused about that then everyone was including her. The song is the most awaited collaboration with Gary Valenciano titled Di Ka Akin which dropped on Spotify Friday-midnight, it was even included on the streaming platform's New Music Friday playlist. But It had everyone surprised as there was no prior announcement about its release, no preview, and promotional material, anyways fans already congratulated Julie and Mr. Gary V for the collaboration, and Julie herself would even tweet promoting the song in the morning, a tweet she would immediately take down and soon after her fan accounts would also delete all the posts about the song. It's not a prank (who knows?) but obviously, somebody screwed up in dropping the song early on Spotify. While every social media post about the song collaboration was taken down immediately, the song remained on Spotify's playlist for at least 24 hours b...

Am I The One Who?: Thoughts On AllOutSundays AllOutShoutOut Episode

Image
Watching AllOutSundays' Latest Episode I wonder, AM I The only One Who. . . . . . thought the TikTok dance opening was a huge downgrade from last week's Janet Jackson opening? How come we went from Grammy Award-winning hits to Budots and Jumbo Hotdog? . . . thought seeing Boobay, Tuesday Vargas, and Ruffa Mae Quinto dancing in the opening felt like watching a different noontime show? It felt like watching a TV5 or Net25 variety shows where everyone is a joke, and Ruffa Mae and Tuesday admitting that they rehearsed everything in 5 minutes says a lot about how much the creatives are taking this show seriously. But wait, there is more, they actually returned later with a dedicated dance segment nobody wants to see. . . . wonder if the Sexbomb dance prod was either just the TikTok standard or just simply lazy? I know it was based on TikTok where untalented people believe they are great dancers just by gyrating and flailing their arms annoyingly, I don't like their nove...
