Philippine Televisions Big Three!;
The role of the television networks may be changing now that full episodes can be streamed online. The battleground of television network companies has always been a unique one. They fight with TV series, sitcoms, and news programs that attract viewers rather than products that they directly sell to consumers. In the Philippines, in practice, the terms network, station and channel are used interchangeably as programming line-ups are mostly centrally planned from the networks' main offices.

TAROT’ GETS A PG 13 RATING
‘TAROT,’ the horror film from Regal Films gets a big boost from the MTRCB when it got a Parental Guidance rating --- which makes it suitable for viewing for kids provided that they are accompanied by adults.
‘TAROT’ stars Marian Rivera, Roxanne Guinoo and Dennis Trillo and directed by Jun Lana. It is a frightening and enlightening take on the use of the tarot cards and its consequences.
The lead star Marian says, “We are very grateful that we are given the chance to be seen by a wide audience given our PG 13 rating.” Dennis adds, “Very blessed indeed because there is no other local film opening on the same week and the movie hits the screen during a long payday weekend because of the National Heroes Day holiday.” The story of Tarot is unpredictable and will bring the audience to unexpected horror experience.
‘TAROT’ will be shown in more than 100 theaters nationwide on August 26. The movie is well made and excellently acted and produced horror film of the season which is the birthday treat of both the Regal matriarch Mother Lily Monteverde and the primetime queen Marian Rivera.

Kapamilya scrimps, Kapuso splurges
An ABS-CBN insider told STIR that the Kapamilya Network sent one media person to cover the Kadayawan Festival in Davao while GMA sent five entertainment journalists from Manila. More than anything, this shows how the Kapamilya Network is scrimping on publicity budget and how the Kapuso Network is splurging on it. No doubt who’s getting more publicity mileage, resulting in higher television ratings.
ABS-CBN has been cutting back in publicity expenses. It’s been holding less and smaller press conferences, relying on in-house publicity like in self-owned publications and online sites to do the job. Like in the In My Life launching, there were more Vilma Santos fans than there were entertainment journalists. This gave almost no time to interview the Star For All Seasons and packed up the Dolphy Theater where it was held.
The opposite is taking place at GMA. It’s giving bigger and more press conferences. It maximizes every publicity opportunity like introduction of new shows like the drama/fantasy series Mars Ravelo’s Darna & the sitcom Show Me the Manny and special events like the Are You The Next Big Star finals at the Araneta Coliseum.
Clearly, there has been a change of publicity and promotion strategy by the two giant networks which are opposite in size and intention. This usually happens when one network thinks it has attained market leadership and feels comfortable in the perceived standing. The other network tries harder to regain number one position by giving more frequent and bigger media conferences.

Tula Para kay JDL
HOY JDL!
Hoy JDL, bakit ka ba nanggagalaiti
Sa inggit kay WR
Lagi mo siyang hinahanapan ng butas
Patsutsada mo sa kanya ay madalas.
Hindi ka namang pinakikialaman
Ikaw itong dakdak ng dakdak
Tulo laway ka sa kanyang kinalalagyan
Napagiwanan ka na niya kasi ng milya milyang kasikatan.
Hoy JDL kaparis mo'y donkey
Nag sorry na nga itong si WR
At tinanggap din naman ng pamilya ni Cory
Ngunit ang bunganga mo'y mapanghi.
Hoy JDL nagmamalinis ka lagi
At ginagawa mong itong si Willie'y marumi
Limot mo na ba ang panghahalay mo kay PP
Kasama mo si V at RDH.
Hoy JDL laman kayo sa lahat ng diyaryo noon
TV at radyo at kalabos sa Krame ika'y natameme
Masahol pa ang pangyayari
Kaysa sa ginawa ni HK kay KH.
Akala mo yata limot na ito ng sambayanang Pinoy (hindi hoy!)
Lalo na sa mga kabataan di nila alam ang pangyayari
Ngunit ito'y paalaala sa iyo lamang
Hoy Joey sa iyong sariling kasalanan at kalaswaan.
Hayan tinamaan ka na JDL!
Dinadaan mo pa ang inggit sa patula-tula!
Akala mo yata hahangaan ka
Hoy hindi ah kaya si WR'y tantanan mo na. Period.

John Lloyd Cruz, King of Endorsements?
Pahinga muna sa TV work si John Lloyd Cruz pero sunud-sunod naman ang kanyang endorsements. In fact, nang huli naming makapanayam ang aktor, kagagaling lamang nito sa isang promotional event for the pizza chain Greenwich. “Hindi siya ganun kapagod unlike nung meron pa siyang (I Love) Betty La Fea (na tini-tape),” lahad ng Star Magic road manager ni Lloydy.
John Lloyd allots two days in a week for the upcoming film project In My Life where he pits talents with the legendary Vilma Santos. “Kakaiba siyang challenge kasi natutuwa ako na napagbibigyan akong gumawa ng mga proyektong katulad nito.” In My Life is a far cry from the feel-good movies (A Very Special Love and You Changed My Life) that Lloydy has been doing lately. Tinatalakay ng nasabing pelikula ang masalimuot na mga ugnayan ng tatlong nilalang (John Lloyd, Vilma and Luis Manzano) na umiikot sa usapin ng homosexuality. “Sensitibo ang topic ng pelikula,” lahad pa ng aktor.
At isa nga sa bagong endorsements ni Lloydy ay ang Aficionado/Joel Cruz Signatures. Sa August 19 ang grand launch ng aktor at pito pang ibang celebrity endorsers ng nasabing perfume and body care line ng pamosong negosyanteng si Joel Cruz. “Tapos na ang pictorial namin attuluy na tuloy na nga ang pagiging member niya ng Aficionado/Joel Cruz Signatures family,” excited na pahayag ng tinaguriang Lord of Scents.
