Am I The Only One Who?: Thoughts On Lipsync Battle, Sunday PinaSaya And More...

As I reflect to this past week on GMA, I wonder Am I The Only One Who. . .

. . . thinks the entertainment writers who buries Marian Rivera with their comments about the poor ratings of Yan Ang Morning are stupidly bias? Im not going to do a cover up for GMA's banner star, her show is not really doing good but that's not necessarily Marian's fault-- besides what GMA daytime show is topping the ratings game anyway?--ironically the entertainment writers who trolls on Marian's program are the same people who loses their mind everytime you state the fact that Eat Bulaga and their Kalyeserye are losing their battle aswell. You do the math.

. . . thought GMA executives were very active in promoting the Magpakailanman episode featuring Carrotman's lifestory because of the real Carrotman and never really cared about Jhake Vargas? I just can't remember any MPK episode that the powers that be in GMA are so into, I guess it's only a validation of the rumors that some GMA executives are very high on carrotman, set aside the fact that he has no talent and has above the ceiling talent fee. Further I cant remember any project of Jhake Vargas where GMA executives marked out like crazy, I would even suspect that carrotman had more zeros in his paycheck than Jhake Vargas.

. . . thought Thea Tolentino should've won the last episode of LipSync Battle PH but already predicted Barbie Forteza's victory? Without spoilers I already knew Barbie would win since I've seen how the two performs on stage before and the fact that the live audience decides who wins, it will be a popularity contest and there's no way Barbie is going to lose to Thea in that department-- however, Thea made a surprise, and I might be in the minority with this one but she chose a better song and showed more personality in the first round and actually out-performed Barbie in the second. I like Barbie but from an unbias standpoint Thea clearly won. But I wasn't wrong.to stick with my prediction.

. . . surprised that Barbie Forteza didn't pull a Taylor Swift in her LSB-PH performaces? I know Barbie is a big Swifty so I actually thought she's going do one but instead she did a Beyonce and settled with Taylor's BFF Selena Gomez. I wonder if GMA was scared of the chances that Taylor Swift might go after them over intellectual property issues if ever they use her songs and immitate her performances.

. . .thought the ad placements of Talk n Text and Maxipeel pretty much ruined Sunday Pinasaya? It produced a corny skit and a seem unrehearsed impromtu dance number from Marian Rivera. Those minutes could've been used for more meaningful segments.

. . . was frustrated over the limited exposure of Julie Anne San Jose on Sunday Pinasaya? She appeared in a short skit at the start a the show and participated on Kantaririt. The show even played up to the fans that she's the lead character in its new Kantaserye but it actually featured less of her-- adding up her total airtime--that didn't seem lasted over 10 minutes. I have alot to say about this but Im reserving it for now.

. . . thought the introduction of Julie's character in the new Kantaserye made no sense? First, why is she looking for the principal's office?-- shoudn't a transferee student be going to the registrar's office instead?-- And its even more of a headscratch that the faculty knows who she is while she just transfered and its the first day of school?

7 Times GMA Ruined Their Own Creation

Image
Change is constant, sometimes it's for the better but sometimes it's for the worse, but for GMA Network at times it's something they thought it's for the better only to end up ruining what is great. When people know what they're doing it's better to just leave them alone, however GMA is notorious for messing up with what their viewers enjoy, cause they believe they know better. You would think they're always trying to blow themselves up on purpose, like someone in there saying "Let's see how bad we can mess this up." Here are 7 Times GMA Ruined Their Own Creation".

I Was Right About Louise Delos Reyes

Image
I have always been skeptical about the huge push GMA handed to Louise Delos Reyes. From the start I've been firm and very vocal in my opinion that she's a hardsell as a leading lady, much more as the Network's top star. After a not so successful youth oriented series on TV5, Louise returned to GMA as an impromptu onscreen partner to Elmo Magalona in Pilyang Kerubin, and later as one of the casts of Tween Hearts, but only for very short stint as she was immediately elevated to leadstar status to play the title role in Alakdana and since starred in several primetime dramas, including the drowned Kambal Sirena. Fast forward today, GMA's Next Most Important Leading Lady has found herself suddenly below the level of importance. She'd been out of big projects for quite some time now and just doing forgettable guestings, she's even rendered invisible in the overcrowded Sunday AllStars that is also lowering its curtains soon. It was said that Louise will be part of

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
