Angel Locsin
Yeah, the news is that Angel Locsin has jumped ship to GMA's rival network, ABSCBN. It's funny how GMA is really bitter about this. IMO, both parties made mistakes. GMA, on the other hand though, won't stop the intrigues and black propaganda on Angel Locsin. Haha! Straight from Lolit Solis' ugly, venomous, t-bird mouth, she claimed that Angel had an abortion; has a sex video; and her mom's a house maid that was impregnated by her dad.

On the case of abortion, that is a pretty big claim. The rumors say that she got pregnant by the late Mico Sotto, and resorted to abortion. If ever it's true (which I think is not - How can she be friendly-friendly with Ali Sotto all this time, if ever it was true?!), that's on Angel's conscience. On the 'her mother is a maid' part, what the HELL is wrong if her mother was a maid?! Anong masama dun?! And lastly, the sex video! Haha! I've seen it. I came across it on the Internet just now. It's definitely not Angel Locsin. It's Natt Chanapa, a porn star from Thailand! *Lolz, and I wonder how I know these things!* The funniest thing is, that Wilma Galvantes fellow, the GMA executive, said that she's SURE that it's really Angel Locsin on that video! Hah! What a way to destroy your own credibility! Just shows how GMA is really bitter about this. To think that they're paying Lolit Solis' ugly ass to air all this exploitation/ black propaganda on nationwide television. ;p

GMA Dubbing
I was surfing the TV earlier today (which is a rare thing for me nowadays) and came across the re-dubbed GMA version of Meteor Garden. Now, this is why even die hard "kapuso" fans admit that GMA does bad dubbing! It is horrendous! GMA should really put on some budget when it comes to dubbing shows. Total murder.

On new shows
I heard Marimar premiered earlier tonight on GMA. Sadly, I was fast asleep due to exhaustion. It looks interesting, and Marian Rivera looked really pretty. I hope the show do well.

The show for the moment for me though is Natutulog Ba Ang Diyos. I heard the show was moved into primetime and that it was extended. Good for Roxanne G. and company. Haha!

Another good show is the Claudine-Piolo series, Walang Kapalit. I heard it's nearing its end. Jodi Sta. Maria (my ever childhood crush! haha!) always steals the show. It's amazing how she could play this crazy woman (unless she's really crazy! haha!). Great stuff.

Now you wonder how I watch all these stuffs. Well, I have no choice. Ever since I was in college, the TV seems to be locked on ABSCBN every night! You can't fight the people here for a spot on the TV! Now it became a force of habit until I got to enjoy it! Haha! You say it's baduy or corny, mainly because it's local or what? Then think about all that Koreanovelas/Chinovelas/Japanovelas that all these people are crazy about. Remember when popular Korean soap stars goes to the Philippines, pinoys go gaga over them?! Remember when the F4 was so HOT, and Meteor Garden was the show to watch!? Remember when they came here, it was f4 FRENZY?! Haha! Well, guess what. I heard they had a Jericho Rosales FRENZY in Malaysia and India! I also heard that Christian Bautista is pretty BIG in Indonesia! Hahaha!

The thing is, attracted tayo (Filipinos as a whole) sa gawa ng ibang dayuhan that we overlook what we have. And maybe it's the same with other countries. I heard from my sister who teaches English to Koreans, that she asked her korean students on what their sentiments about their very own koreanovelas. They said that it was baduy and that they don't watch it. Haha. Kung ano ang baduy sa atin, maganda para sa kanila... and vice versa. Wow, God really made us such complex creatures! ;p
