Willie Revillame seemed to have dismissed rumors that his show “Wowowin” will take a break from airing, as he revealed that the construction of their new studio has been expedited to accommodate a live audience soon.
The TV host spoke about this while giving a glimpse of the studio’s construction in an episode of “24 Patrol” on ALLTV network’s Facebook page on Monday, Feb. 6. Revillame was apparently addressing the recent speculations that ALLTV will temporarily stop airing some of its programs supposedly due to lack of advertisers and low ratings.
“Maraming mga chismis, maraming usap-usapan… Ito ang katotohanan: alam niyo ba na ang ‘Wowowin’ studio ay nag-meeting na naman kanina? Minamadali na po ‘yan para magkaroon na tayo ng audience,” he said.
(There’s lots of gossip and speculation… Here’s the truth: Do you know that the “Wowowin” studio had a meeting earlier? [The construction of the studio] has been expedited so that we can have [live audience].)
Revillame stressed that the network’s management has not notified him of any plans on the supposed halting of shows, and noted that they are currently working on improving the network’s signal to widen its reach.
