'Tahanang Pinakamasaya' bids farewell, 130 employees displaced — reports
MANILA, Philippines — Television and Production Exponents (TAPE) Inc.'s "Tahanang Pinakamasaya" has bid farewell, according to reports.
While there is still no official announcement from TAPE as of press time, the hosts hinted at the possibility of shutting down during the show's episode last Saturday.
At the end of the show, main host Isko Moreno thanked all the supporters and advertisers of the show.
"Ano man ang gawin mo at ano mang problemang kakaharapin, do everything for love. Ganyan ang pagmamahal namin sa inyo mga Kapuso. Araw-araw kami ni Paolo (Contis) at ang TP family at Tape Inc. maghatid ng 'Tahanang Pinakamasaya' sa bawat pamilya Pilipino. Siyempre, thank you din sa ating advertisers at supporters at mga Kapuso natin," Isko said.
"Maraming maraming salamat po. At ito po ang grand na Sabado. Isa na namang Sabadong hindi natin malilimutan at lahat ng ito ay alay namin para sa inyo mula sa pamilya ng TAPE Inc. — ang tagahatid ng tulong-saya at unli sorpresa mula pa noong 1979 sa pamamagitan ng 'Eat Bulaga,' hanggang ngayon dito sa 'Tahanang Pinakamasaya'," Paolo Contis added.
The show's Facebook and YouTube accounts were also deleted after the show's airing.
The show reportedly employs 97 production staff and 33 TAPE Inc. employees.
Last January 6, TAPE Inc. rebranded the show from "Eat Bulaga" to "Tahanang Pinakamasaya" after Tito Sotto, Vic Sotto and Joey de Leon won their trademark case.
