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

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 better team than their Kingdom counterparts?
Not only they are better at choral singing but they are more charismatic in their performance.

. . . is hoping that the Tanging Treasure comedy skit is the last comedy skit on the show like I was with the past comedy skits since the pilot of the show?
Nothing is going on with these comedy skits other than the jokes are getting lamer and it even has the same plot all the time, Paolo Contis rekindling his love with his childhood sweetheart, just wash, rinse, and repeat with another leading lady.

. . . thought Bea Alonso did herself no favors with her performance of Dua Lipa's One Kiss with Alden Richards and it was actually the worst musical prod of the episode?
It was a lipsynch performance with unenergetic dance moves that makes you get more entertained by the backup dancers. Bea who used to be a part of ASAP's original IT Girls would've gotten away with that kind of performance back then, but it's different now that she's no longer in her 20s.

. . . thought if Bea and Alden were AOS' answer to Sarah G's ASAP come back then everyone in ASAP could be laughing after seeing how lame the performance was?

. . . wonder if there was awkwardness between Bea and Rayver Cruz backstage, because of the insider report that Bea didn't want to work on a project with Rayver?
It was said that Bea's supposed first project with GMA was an I Can See You series with Rayver but Bea shot it down because she doesn't think her former Kapamilya colleague is on her level.

. . . hope Kim Atienza and Pokwang take the Tune Pak Na Pak game and other nonsense AOS game segments with them to their new Game Variety Show TikToClock?
These games are just complete waste of everyone's time.

. . . thought The Lounge segment didn't showcase Aicelle Santos and Maricris Garcia as great singers but only made them look like Pakialamerang Chismosa for meddling with their co-stars' love life and seemingly making fun of them for being single?
And since when did being single is something to make fun of? Especially when some of the girls they were referring to are still considered young to have serious relationships

. . . find it funny that during the introduction of the Super Champions segment the spiel said GMA is known for discovering great singers?
The prod includes Zephanie who is not a GMA discovery, and although GMA indeed has good ears for talented singers they are also known for devaluing them. The latest example of this is The Clash Champion Mariane Osabel, her debut single Pira-Piraso peaked at number 3 on iTunes but nobody in GMA even knew about this because they were busy promoting Sanya Lopes's song. It's kind of karma that Mariane's single stayed longer on the chart than Sanya's.

. . . thought it was kind of ridiculous that the show undervalued Julie Anne San Jose in a GMA Anniversary episode?
Julie is one of the longest-tenured Kapuso even longer than most stars on the show and a permanent fixture of GMA's Sunday Noontime Variety shows since SOP, they even refer to her as the Limitless Star but for some reason, her screen time was limited, only appearing in the opening and the nonsense closing comedy segment.

. . . thought whoever wrote the jokes for the closing comedy segment should be demoted to a PA position for thinking ugly and gay jokes are still funny in 2022?

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".

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
