Shucks! I'm not that prominent. I mean, you have more hits than I do. Thanks for the mention.

Anyway, ABS is getting too cocky. It was ok if Retz was informed that his segment may or may not be shown. But to promise him so many times that it will?

I'll tell you a little story. One time, I bumped into a staff of a reality-horror tv show. I commented to her that one of their segments wasn't true from secondhand/thirdhand knowledge. To my surprise the staff told me that they have been so pressured to come up with something scary for the REALITY show that they made it up!

well said Rickey..what happened to Retz really sucks

It's influence all right. But is it significant in the scheme of Philippine local television?

Uma got over 50,000 text votes. Assuming each person voted ten times, that's more than 5,000 voters. But it wasn't enough to beat Nene's 500,000 plus votes.

PBB is not AI. PBB viewers are not well connected to the internet.

For the moment, blogs will not exert significant influend on Philippine television.

ABS needs to pull their act together. One of the things you need to remember is you gotta keep your word coz if people won't believe your word, then you're nothing.

pashneya! hahaha. i missed this word!

now, retz has realized what it feels to be a kapamilya.

Ang ganda ng Christmas Special ng ABS-CBN nung Dec 17!! Bongga talaga!!

Unlike dun sa xmas special ng gma walang kwenta!!

HEy Rickey, John Prats did a dance number which was a superb one. He danced together with RAyver, Maja, Shaina and the rest of the anime!! Ang ganda talaga.. Mapapbilib k kay john prats sa galing ng pagsayaw!!

so who cares sa christmas special ng abs? they rank no. 3 i think. no. 1-GMA 52% viewer no. 2-ABC 28% viewer and no. 3 ABS-CBN 20% viewer. overall race ng 3 network. malapit na cla ma overcome ng ABS. i think ABS-CBN needs a CHACHA character change... hehehehe

layo naman sa topic yung comment mo, bibay.

that just to show how uneducated and ill-logic kapamilyas like you are. it's reflecting effortlessly.

i'm glad i'm not a kapamilya.

ANG GANDA TALAGA NG MGA PALABAS SA ABS D2 SA BAGUIO NO.1 ANG ABS COZ 95% ANG NANONOOD NG ABS UNLIKE GMA 2% LANG SABI NILA ANG MEANING NG GMA AY GAYA GAYA,MAGNANAKAW,AT AMBISOSYA
AND I AGREE THAT KC ANG GMA WALANG ORIGINALITY
LAHAT NG SHOWS AY GINAGAYA NILA SA DOS ABS ANG TUNAY NA NO.1 BECOZ WERE SOLID KAPAMILYA

another off-topic comment from a rabid kapamilya.

that just to show how uneducated and ill-logic kapamilyas like bibay and cutie are. it's reflecting effortlessly.

i'm glad i'm not a kapamilya.

and retz has realized how it feels to be a kapamilya...neglected.

Watda?

What the HECK r u talking about BIBAY n' CUTIE? We are talking about PBB here and not some of the rubbishes from ABS!!! Chirstmas special is tooooooooooo far from this topic!!! OMG!!! U guys are trying so hard just to say that ABS-CBN is still NUMERO UNO!!! HOY MAGISING NGA KAYO SA KATOTOHANAN!!!

In my opinion 'bout PBB... i think the summary of the votes its either came from in the Philippines or overseas!!! Which is unfair I think.. lol!!! Sino ba ang manonood nyang CRAP show na yan? WALANG KATUTURAN seriously!!! Australian Big Borther has a same format as PBB but I wish that merong nude scene and some sex scene ang PBB para umarangkada talaga ang ratings ng ABS "Is in it a GOOOOOD idea?" Kasi un ang ginawa ng Aussie Big Brother!!! So kapamilay este Kapamilyax.... Idea na naman to... Kunin nyo!!! Who know pumatok sa timeslot nyo ang PBB!!!! lol

I think PBB is not really worth watching I mean, why should we care about what's going on with other people's lives? Don't we have our own? It will just make other people more "usasera".

I agree with you Pitchan. Why not put S E X scene sa PBB para lalong mag no.1 ang ABS. Tutal, gaya ng sinasabi ng mga Kapamilyuks dito sa blog, na its a REALITY SHOW. Inilibing na ng mga PBB viewers ang kanilang MORALITY.


Put S E X scene in PBB since its a REALITY show, short-cut of EDUCATIONAL SHOW.


CGURADONG NO.1 na ang ABS pag naging ganyan na ang PBB.

Paging Direk Loren: DO THIS FOR ABS SAKE!!!

Yun nga palang mga kapuso dito umalis bka pumangit ang fan site eh magiging basura to pag di kayo umalis sa tingin ko meron kayang atletang pinoy na kapuso sa tingin ko wala ksi halos lahat laging nasa abs at saka may pinsan ako sa mga atletang pinoy sabi nya ang gusto ng mga kasama nyang atletang pinoy abs pati nga yung mga taga ibang bansa eh abs ang gusto at hindi ang mga kapuso kung ang tawag nyo sa fan site ay kapamilyucks di kami yon noh kapamilya nga eh ok alam nyo na?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ang alam ko si manny pacquiao kapamilya lagi ksi dun nakikita or napapanoor eh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ang alam ko rin yung mga atletang pinoy lahat raw ay kapamilya ay wawa naman ang mga kapuso si japoy lizardo nga lumabas sa scq reload ka loveteam ni sarah geronimo o see kapamilya ang mga atletang pinoy wala na kayo talo na kayo.

Kung akala nyo wala na ang panday pwes mag intay kayo inipin pala kayo eh magtiyaga ksi kayo noh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! may ikalawang yugto pa po noh understood?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[OMG they're back! Hahaha. Napaka-consistent nila hah -- R.]

Boggax, CGE pati ATHLETE'S FOOT, ANGKININ NYO NA!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't like PBB either, The show doesn't make sense at all....I mean everyone looks ridiculous displaying their pathetic manners...PBB should come up with interesting activities that wll display the contestants wits and intelligence.

I never used to like Big brother but i watched the 2005 series and now i am a big fan. Does anyone know when the 06 series begins?

Many thanks and great blog.

Pinoy Big Brother (fill in the blank) Edition!
By Pepe Diokno, Contributor
Inquirer


I DON'T WANNA BE THE guy who breaks it to you die-hard Pinoy Big Brother fans. (You know, you guys who got ZPDee just for PBB 24/7.) But I have conclusive evidence that Pinoy Big Brother is about to die.

The Celebrity Edition just finished, and Teen Edition's coming up. Think about it: Survivor didn't go the celebrity route until its eighth edition (with Survivor All-Stars), and the Amazing Race didn't go kiddie until season eight (with the Family edition).

TV shows like to shake things up to keep audiences interested. You know, 'coz concepts get stale. Pinoy Big Brother is on "we must keep people interested" mode on its second season. That may mean two things. One, that its producers sense the show's going down the toilet and they need to pump it up; and two, that the producers are dumb and aren't playing their cards right.

I'm for option two.

But regardless of whether the show is going down the toilet, I also have proof that PBB's eating itself alive, and it won't last four more seasons. See:

If ABS-CBN averages three seasons a year, they're going to have to come up with three extra shows a year just to showcase former PBB talents. (Can you imagine three more shows like "Gudtaym?" I bet you don't want to.)

By season five next year, there will be nearly 100 former housemates -- nearly 100 new Kapamilyas. They really can't fit everyone on Channel 2, but what if their Recycle Bin, Studio 23, fills up as well?

There's going to be such an abundance of former housemates that by season five, ABS-CBN will have no choice but to shut down PBB.

And if they do manage to juggle all their former housemates, it just proves the saying, "Reality stars get 10 minutes of fame. On ABS-CBN they get 0.864." :lol: That's not good for the network, is it?

See, it's definite disaster for PBB. The only way for the scenarios above not to happen is if PBB reaches its saturation point by season three. ;) (But that is a big possibility.)

However, I have a soft spot for ABS-CBN (because GMA 7 reminds me of Ethel Booba, Diego, the Sex Bomb Dancers, and other random fuglies) , so I decided to help them out. I took a night off from normalcy to brainstorm for possible editions of PBB. Here's a short list of what I've come up with. (If you want the other 7,842 ideas, give me a call. And money.)

Pinoy Big Brother: Brother Edition

Featuring the Eigenmanns, the Monteros, and the Quizons (there are 50 million of 'em). this special edition will have a very special tagline: "Si Kuya, Kuya mo talaga!"

The big winner gets, in the words of Keanna Reeves, "a big weaner."

Sponsored by Brothers Burger.

Pinoy Big Brother: Metro Body Calendar Edition
Never mind the crap the MTRCB's gonna raise over this, this is a ratings draw. And there is an edge to this idea: ancillary sales (DVD, iTunes, cable rights). I hear the "Girls Gone Wild" guy is so rich now, he's thinking of buying Playboy. This'd definitely bandage ABS' profit wound. Wala lang.

Pinoy Big Brother: Fish Edition

This comes from the genius that was Sky Cable's aquarium channel. I kid you not, there was an aquarium channel, and it obviously was ahead of its time. Watching PBB: Fish Edition would kinda be like watching ANC, but you'd pick an arowana over Ricky Carandang any day, wouldn't you?

This show's easy to produce, it doesn't cost much, and ABS won't have to worry about giving airtime to "PBB: Fish Edition" housemates. Oh yeah, and it promotes eco-consciousness.

Pinoy Big Brother: Indie Edition

59 days locked in Cubao X. But here's the twist: instead of stocking the place with nothing, forcing the housemates to make art out of, um, nothing, we give them state of the art recording equipment, Macs, and all the silk screen material they'll ever need (provided they stamp a little logo in somewhere). And here's an interesting challenge: We'll force them to pray to billboard-sized pictures of Gabby Lopez. Yeah.

The Big Winner gets a nice cubicle at the PBB writer's office.

If you think these stipulations are going to throw indie people off, you're wrong. Everyone wants to call themselves indie these days.

Pinoy Big Brother: Nginig Edition

Why isn't this on the air yet? All we need is a haunted house -- one in New Manila's fine -- and 16 people brave enough to face ghosts like Antoinette Taus, the mean fat girl from "Sarah ang Munting Prinsesa," and Stefano Mori. (Oh, they aren't... Oh. Ok. Scratch that.)

Pinoy Big Brother: Rehab Edition

Imagine all these housemates with withdrawal symptoms -- killing each other, eating the furniture, pissing on themselves. Imagine the drama we can get in the confession room. Imagine where we can go with the challenges. The press release will read, "This show features the plight of drug addicts. It will show the youth to stay away drugs." See, nothing for you moms and dads to worry about.
