Vilma Santos expressed her hopes for “It’s Your Lucky Day,” where her son Luis Manzano is one the main hosts, to be brought back on air, which came after the game show aired its final episode last Oct. 27.
Santos, who was seen with Manzano and his wife Jessy Mendiola, appealed for the game show’s extension, as seen in a clip uploaded on the “It’s Your Lucky Day” host’s Instagram page last Sunday, Oct. 29.
“Momskie, katanungan. Gusto mo bang ibalik ang ‘It’s Your Lucky Day (Mom, question. Do you want ‘It’s Your Lucky Day’ to be back on air)?’” Manzano asked.
The screen veteran showed her support for the show saying, “Yes na yes, 200%. You know why, anak? Marami kayong napapaligaya (A big yes, 200%. You know why, son? You make a lot of people happy), believe me. So please, extend.”
Santos made a guest appearance on the Kapamilya show during its Oct. 21 episode, where she praised the host for “unselfishly” accepting the offer to be part of its airing even if only it’s meant to be a stand-in for noontime show “It’s Showtime” which served its 12-day suspension earlier this month.
The final episode of “It’s Your Lucky Day” was broadcast last Oct. 27, where the hosts thanked their audience for their support despite its short run. Aside from Manzano, Melai Cantiveros, Robi Domingo, Jennica Garcia, Francine Diaz, Seth Fedelin, Negi, Petite, and Divine Tetay were also part of the hosts.
“It’s Showtime” has since returned on air last Oct. 28 after serving its suspension imposed by the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB).
