Am I The Only One Who?: Thoughts on Sanya Lopez, Sunday Pinasaya, Julie Anne San Jose And More...

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

. . . thought had too much of Sanya Lopez for the week?
Sanya Lopez is the lead star of the daily afternoon drama Haplos, even if we cant recognize her as of the moment because of her prosthetic make up, yet that's still Sanya Lopez, who was featured on Magpakailanman, was a guest on I-Bilib, and was on the replayed episode of Dear Uge. Means she's been featured on TV the entire week. Normaly GMA stars are made to appear in multiple tv shows if they are promoting something but then Sanya is not, so there are really no valid reasons to overexpose her. It only further showed the lack of depth of GMA roster and the management being rigged.

. . . thought Sheena Halili was a non factor on this week's episode of Magpakailanman that featured her along with Diana Zubiri, Sunshine Dizon and Sanya Lopez?
Sheena being billed along side the network's prime stars was good for her considering how GMA have treated her throughout her career as a bit player and often a comic relief. But then the episode aired and her role speaks volume as what GMA thinks of her; a bit player and nothing more. Sheena's scenes were very few as her lines and was just there to compelete the number of sisters that were featured on the show. It mainly focused on Diana, Sunshine and Sanya who were the three main characters, Sanya in particular was given the top role. Sheena is a talented actress and has long been overlooked by the powers that be. She may not be a leading lady material but sure she could do better than being a bit player. Well, she's already passed her prime so at this point I dont think and it doesn't seem she will be catching a break, certainly not with the way GMA is booking her and with all the younger talents the network has.

and speaking of a younger talent.

Am I the only one who wondered why Gabbi Garcia wasn't placed on the said episode instead of Sheena? Having Sunshine, Diana, Sanya and Gabbi would've created more hype as they were two generations of Encantadia's Sang'gre. But after seeing how Sheena's role has been too unimportant, I ended up not wondering anymore.

. . . think its time and would be better if GMA just break the loveteam of Bianca Umali and Miguel Tanfenlix up?
BiGuel as they want to call it will again star in a new primetime show with the working title Santa Santita which suggest Bianca Umali will be the title role. And it would be better if GMA will just give her a new leadingman, afterall BiGuel had been given a huge push for far too long now and no matter what GMA wants to believe, doors that should've openned never did as the loveteam never reached the level they've expected them to.

. . . think Ruru Madrid looks like a dork in his Yoyo Boy character in Alyas Robin Hood?
He comes off as someone from the awful Batang Z movie back in the 90's with his costume, and I cant help but to roll my eyes on the absurdity of him knocking off villains with a toy. Ok, ARH characters do look like bunch of dorks but Yoyo Boy is one of the top reasons why everyone is not taking the show seriously.

. . . thought Dingdong Dantes' Batman costume during Halloween was the best superhero costume he ever wore and he is more welcome as the Dark Knight than Arrow's clone?

. . . thought Sunday Pinasaya was too pushy on Barbie Forteza and Ken Chan's on screen team up and went as far as throwing their brains off the window to make their fling look real?
Yes they are promoting a movie but everyone on the show knew Barbie is in a relationship with Jak Roberto who is also a semi regular on the program and was being teased to Barbie on the show just recently.

. . . wonder if Julie Anne San Jose's decision to leave GMA Records has something to do with her short singing spot on Sunday Pinasaya?
The Kantaserye segment provided an ample amount of time for the non singer Barbie Forteza to lipsync but only gave seconds to Julie.

. . . think Daisy (Julie Anne San Jose's Kantaserye character) wont have a successful solo singing career if she is on Sunday Pinasaya?

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
