More 'gimmicks' up in Showtime

MANILA, Philippines - More fun and surprises await the “madlang people” on ABS-CBN’s noontime show It’s Showtime with its new segments featuring the talents of Filipino families and heartwarming stories from solid “Showtimers.”

Families take the spotlight in the newest talent showdown where five to 25 family members — from the oldest generation to the youngest — showcase variety of talents that can all be packed in one entertaining performance. 

From a creative presentation to introduce clan members to an exciting physical game and a multi-talent showdown, contestants are put to test to bring out the fun, excellence and creativity in each Filipino family.

Also catch more fun-filled performances and prizes in Sine Mo ‘To and Arte Mo.

A brand-new jackpot game is also in store where lucky contestants can get the chance to win the whopping P1M prize to be launched soon.

Heartwarming stories are also featured in Dear Showtime Family to give way to simple wishes from the “madlang people.”

Meanwhile, Bacolod’s Masskara was crowned the grand champion in The Finals: Inter-Town Edition last Saturday. The group garnered an average score of 10 from the judges and took home P2M and P1M for the city they represent.

Incidentally, here’s an official statement from Bong Osorio, head of ABS-CBN Corporate Communications on rumors that Showtime will be axed:

“There is no truth to rumors that It’s Showtime will be replaced. ABS-CBN is neither replacing It’s Showtime with another program nor moving it back to its earlier timeslot. 

“In fact, It’s Showtime (yesterday) kicked off the launch of its new segments starting with the multi-talent showdown among Filipino families following the inter-town grand finals last April 28. 

“The viewing public can look forward to the launch of new entertainment segments in the coming days as ABS-CBN continues on its mission to bring fun and hope to the Filipinos here and in TFC markets worldwide.”
