GMA Network's New Weekend Lineup
GMA Network further intensifies its Saturday and Sunday afternoon and primetime blocks with a bigger and bolder programming schedule beginning October 27 and 28.
On Saturday, October 27, the country’s well-loved and longest running noontime show, “Eat Bulaga”, continues to bring laughter and surprises to viewers at 11:30AM. Afterwards, a totally exciting, totally exclusive, and totally explosive episode of “Startalk” follows at 2:45pm with the live guesting of Temptation of Wife’s Primetime Queen Marian Rivera and Dennnis Trillo.
The country’s pioneering wish-granting public service program “Wish Ko Lang”, hosted by Vicky Morales, continues to help the less-fortunate, reunite families and loved ones, and treat die-hard fans to a quality time with their celebrity icons as it moves back to its original timeslot at 4:15pm. “24 Oras Weekend”, anchored by Jiggy Manicad and Pia Arcangel, shortly comes next at 5:15pm with the rundown of the day’s most pressing issues and a recap of the week that was.
Kapuso Movie Night: Pinoy Flicks follows with the airing of Asia’s first gay zombie comedy film “Zombadings” topbilled by Martin Escudero, Roderick Paulate, and Eugene Domingo at 5:45pm. Zombadings is the story of Remington (Mart), a boy who has a knack for mischief. His favorite targets are the homosexuals in their town of Lucban, Quezon. One day, he meets a gay man (Roderick) at the cemetery and taunts him about his gender. The gay man curses him that when he grows up, he too will turn gay.
Saturdays and Sundays get more intense with the premiere of the most extreme reality game show on Philippine TV – “Extra Challenge” hosted by Richard Gutierrez and Marian Rivera together with Boobay – taking over weekend primetime at 7:30pm.
