The last episode of “Wowowin” was aired on Sunday afternoon. But supporters of Willie Revillame need not be sad.

His show may be canceled but his fans will never leave him. Willie’s hiatus is only temporary as talks have been going on between him and GMA 7, bringing up the possibility that his weekly show may even turn into a daily one.

“Wowowin” has been receiving positive feedback since May 10. It gets good ratings, sometimes even surpassing the shows that came before it. But there are other factors to consider when producing a show, not just ratings.

GMA is now looking for a good time slot for “Wowowin” as it thinks 3:30 in the afternoon is not a good time for a variety game show.

If it were up to the GMA executives the Sunday program will continue, but it is Willie himself who decided to wait for the right time before airing “Wowowin” again, this time on a daily basis.

The Filipino audience will be delighted once Willie’s show starts airing daily, just like it used to.
