GMA Announces The Clash Return And New Reality Talent Show Franchise

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 in their team to compete against their rival judge and talent."

The Clash is proven to be a rating success, though creating stars out of its winners is a different story, it is still the most exciting original talent show GMA had in years, but GMA seems to have not been able to duplicate that success to its other reality talent show, Alden Richards hosted CenterStage was a flop, another singing show Sing For Hearts never made it on air and few could even remember their last franchised show CatchMeOut PH, so expectations for another franchised reality talent show should not be very high.

7 Times GMA Ruined Their Own Creation

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".

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

I Was Right About Louise Delos Reyes

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
