The not so good things in the Philippines

Talk about things other than video games. What are your other hobbies? What's your favorite TV show? Are you into sports. Any recommended restaurants? Do you travel?

sa entertainment naman, di hamak na mas maganda pa mga animations sa mga commercials kaysa sa tv series at local movies. hehehe. tapos tuwing laban ni pacquiao, 3mins of fight, 15mins commercial kada rounds :banghead:
example:
Commercial: Cobra
Series: Gagamboy :facepalm:

^^totoo yun. kasi sa movie babayaran ka 2M per film tapos ilang weeks or months ka may shooting. pero per endorsement 5M or more pero ilang araw lang shooting mo :lol: kay Aga yan, it does not apply to all actors/actresses

si K.C. Concepcion nga bago mag-artista may mga endorsements na, mas malaki daw yung kinikita ni K.C. kaysa sa mga ilang taon nang artista.

I hate the overexposure of the so-called celebrities here in the Philippines. Ang daming showbiz talk shows. We only have a a few free TV channels and all we get are talent searches, reality shows, showbiz talk shows, teleseryes, etc. Walang original programming. My wife and I tried to watch television last week and behold... we were introduce to three similar shows of three TV stations (PGT, Talentadong Pinoy, and Protege). Filipinos no longer have a choice of what they want to watch. It feels like these entertainment bosses are shoving their talents through our throats. I prefer to browse GAF and laugh at the Photoshop threads. I find that more entertaining.

nothing good to watch in tv as far as local channels are concerned. Yes, there is news, but most of the time the news is overhyped, its all bad news in tv. I like investigative journalism though, thats why most of the time, if i ever want to watch any of the local channels, i'll just watch anc or gmanewstv... Also, the only time of the month I really watch anything local is during the UAAP season. Today's shows are oversaturated with people who are celebs by our standards.

Mababaw ang tsismis dito sa pinas, we thrive on it, thats why ABS and GMA fills its showbiz talk shows with their own talents to create buzz and to generate interest in the shows their talents appear in. haha, it seems like these days, there is a talent show everyhour. Am I the only tired of showtime? :p

Mukhang showbiz talaga ang Pilipinas. Madalas may artista or title ng tv show na trending topic sa twitter. Just right know, trending ang "Nasaan Ka Elisa" and "Melissa Ricks" (main protagonist of the show) kasi pilot episode kanina. :sweat:

I agree with you guys, same thing on TV everyday.

the only things I watch on local TV are Documentaries (11:30pm-onwards)

and of course si Lourd De Vera sa Word of the Lourd :win:

eto tingin ko sa local tv shows.
-cheesy predictable stupid soap operas (panget na gaganda, rich na magkakagusto sa mahirap, mahirap na inaapi at kontra bida na mayaman)
-SHOWBIZ CHEEEZZZMIZZZZZZ ftw ! hahaha
-Mind numbing noontime shows with their novelty songs (na paulit ulit)
-pinoy versions ng reality tv shows (not reality since usually celebrites na din yung kasali)
-talent search !!!!! (naghahanap ng bagong cashcow fresh celebrity)
