Michael V and Alcasid. Effective partnership.
Mar Sy, businessman: “I miss the partnership of Michael V and Ogie Alcasid on TV. ‘Bubble Gang’ has never been the same again without their comedic tandem!”
Other notes:
Dante Galera, student: “Look who’s raring for a higher post in the upcoming elections after learning about his high ranking in a recent survey for senators? A former actor who’s currently a vice mayor, that’s who! I’ve no problem with show biz folks turning politicians, as long as they prove their ability to serve.
“But, if you’ve done little to alleviate the sad state of the locality you’re serving, you have no right to run for higher office! As it is, we have more than enough movie actors serving as senators, who are better speech-readers than lawmakers.”
Lilia Parong, housewife: “It’s been a month since it opened, and I’m glad that ‘English Only, Please’ is still showing in theaters. It proves that a movie doesn’t need big stars to endear itself to viewers.”
Flor Capillan, employee: “One of the lovely faces who graced the TV screens during the Papal visit was Jamie Rivera. Why doesn’t she act on TV or in films? I have watched some of her guestings, and I think she’ll make a good comedienne. Like Lilet, she can reinvent herself into a character actress.”
