AM I THE ONLY ONE?

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 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

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

Having to watch AllOutSundays this past Sunday I Wonder, Am I The Only One Who. . . . . . thought the Janet Jackson theme opening was the best opening in a while? There are times that it felt like they are rehashing the performances in the opening prod and or even seem using the same songs, but this one felt different and fresh, and the artists on the show might have felt that too as they seem to enjoy more their performances compared with the past recent episodes. . . . Wonder what was on Gabbi Garcia's mind when Ruru Madrid referred to Bianca Umali as "Pinaka-magandang Babae" in their post-opening spiels? That was a nice compliment to Bianca if everyone didn't know he once told the same to Gabbi. Ruru will be seen in his new series Lolong but would be great in Bolera as well as he is the number 1 Bolero. . . . thought that Julie Anne San Jose and Rayver Cruz being put in a dance prod along with teen love teams felt odd? I'm all for anything that involves

Amidst the reports of acquiring The Voice franchise, GMA posted on its website that its original reality singing competition The Clash will be making a comeback for its fifth season with Clash Masters Julie Anne San Jose and Rayver Cruz and judges Christian Bautista, Lani Misalucha, and Quezon City Persona Non-Grata AiAi Delas Alas all retaining their respective roles. But what came as a surprise along with The Clash's return is the announcement of another talent competition called Battle Of The Judges. Battle Of The Judges is like a spin-off of the Got Talent franchise that first aired in France. As posted, the concept of the show is described as, "In this program, celebrity judges take the spotlight in a contest that pits judge against judge and talent against talent. The judges' acts face off against each other in knock-out duels, but only one winner will be chosen. This game involves strategy as much as performance, with the judges needing to decide who is best

Thoughts on AllOutSundays: Am I The Only One Who?. . . . . . thought AllOutSundays is repeating their song list for their opening? Maybe it's just me or they keep on using the same playlist for their opening such as Francis M, Sandwich, Bamboo, and Kitchie Nadal whenever they have a Philippine Holiday-themed opening. . . . knew the Lounge segment will be nonsense as soon as I saw the comedienne Divine in its plug? They might have put Divine with Aicelle Santos, Mark Bautista, and Maricris Garcia but it didn't change the fact that it's another segment created for cheap laughs, not to mention a version 2.0 of Ogie and Janno's Sobrang OJ segment back in SOP. . . . was disappointed that AOS put Maricris Garcia in a novelty performance? It's been a while since the viewers have seen her, her last appearance was at the Mother's Day episode, while she deserves to be a regular on the program and sing in its Queendom segment they wasted her guesting putting her in

Having to watch AllOutSundays this past Sunday, Am I the only One Who . . . . . . thought the live audience was barely felt on AOS and didn't have any effects for their live show? Not only there were just a few of them, but they were also placed far away from the stage, where they can have a not-so-good fan experience, and their presence didn't add to or improved the vibe of the program. . . . thought it was a stupid idea to cancel Dear Uge only to put Eugene Domingo in AOS? Why axed her comedy show and put her in a program that lastly needs another comedy act? The show should be getting rid of the comedy segments that in the first place are not funny at all. . . . felt bad for Jessica Villarubin for not being mentioned when the AOS cast congratulated Julie Anne San Jose for the success Of the Limitless Trilogy at the recently concluded New York Festivals where the musical special won a Silver Award? Only two The Clash graduates guested on Limitless, one is now void an
