MANILA, Philippines — TV host Billy Crawford confirmed that TV5 noontime show “Tropang LOL” will bid goodbye. 

In his Instagram account, Billy posted a photo of the show’s last taping. 

“Super fun while it lasted! This show gave so many opportunities to people who had lost their jobs at a vulnerable time. 2.5 years ain’t that bad, especially during the pandemic season and a time of uncertainty in our industry,” Billy wrote. 

“@albeebenitez thank you for giving us this venue to work for our families while having fun and being free, and also opening doors for others. I will miss the atmosphere of this show because it was so genuinely light, friendly, uplifting for everyone, and each person on the team worked so hard. No drama, no divas, no pulling anyone down,” he added. 

Billy said that he will cherish forever the experience and the friendship built in the show. 

“Walang naka-angat, at walang nagmamaliit. But as I said, good things sometimes come to an end. I just pray that, one day, God will be able to give us a new home to continue what we have started. But Father, Your will be done in Jesus’s name,” he said. 

“No matter what happens, the relationship built on this show will be cherished forever. Lots of tears on the last day of taping, but also lots of freaking laughter cause that’s just who we are. #TroplangLol thank you to everyone who watched and supported us since the beginning. To all my co-workers, it’s not goodbye, it’s see you soon. Love you all, Tropang LoL!” he added. 

It was October 2020 when the show started airing on national television. 

Apart from Billy, the show's hosts include Alex Gonzaga, Bayani Agbayani, Wacky Kiray, KC Montero, Jeff Tam, Laboching and JD Axie.

The show will be replaced by Karla Estrada's "Face 2 Face" starting May 1.
