RENATO CATUBIG, televiewer: “News stories about Miss Universe Pia Wurtzbach’s lavish homecoming are a breath of fresh air from the negative stories we often see on TV. Pia brims with positive vibe, even when she’s asked difficult questions—she’s a natural! Her smile and the twinkle in her eyes are a sight to behold. She truly makes her country proud!”
Other notes:
Raffy Garces, student: “Ylona Garcia, one of the 20-plus teen stars featured in the TV special, ‘Teen Power,’ easily stood out because of her exceptional singing ability and strong stage presence.
“Given the right break and training, she could turn out to be a formidable singing star. She’s pretty, and her morena features are an advantage. Her tandem with Bailey May is a hit with viewers!”
Light approach
Meann Mijares, events planner: “I commend GMA News TV for producing the public service series, ‘Ugaling Wagi.’ It uses a light approach to remind young viewers to ‘always be in their best behavior’ when they interact with others.”
Jonathan Catunao, engineer: “Factory workers in our plant are raving about Nora Aunor, Kris Bernal and Bembol Roco in the Ricky Davao-helmed teleserye, ‘Little Nanay.’ It took my coworkers to make me realize that the series is not the cookie-cutter drama we see on TV these days.”
Marlene dela Rosa, housewife: “Initially, I thought that the latest batch of ‘Pilipinas Got Talent’ judges was an improvement over the talent tilt’s past judges. I was wrong. Angel Locsin was too kind—she’s never given a negative criticism, even a constructive one! But, what took the cake for me was when Robin Padilla pressed the ‘golden buzzer’ for a pair of so-so dancers!”
