Partnership nina Mr. Ramon ang at MVP sa ABS-CBN, naungkat!

“I think RSA (Ramon S. Ang) and MVP (Manny V. Pangilinan) have been collaborating naman, even in the past. We’ve seen that their partnership, the infrastructure, iba’t ibang negosyo, there really is a relationship between the two.

“ It is not for me to say,” reaction ni Mr. Guido Zaballero, TV5 president and CEO, nang gulatin siya ng tanong ng ilang entertainment media kung anong real story sa sinasabing major business partnership ng dalawang bilyonaryo.

May ilan ngang lumalabas na isyu na nagsasabing sina Mr. Pangilinan, chairman ng MediaQuest, at Ramon S. Ang, chairman at chief executive officer ng San Miguel Corp. (SMC), ay naghahanda na sa pakikipagsosyo sa ABS-CBN.

Tumugon ang ABS-CBN at itinanggi ang tungkol dito.

Maaalalang sinorpresa ni Mr. Ang si MVP sa kanyang advance birthday ce­lebration sa programang Vibe+ kamakailan na ginanap sa MVP Studios.

Doon nagkaroon ng speculation na diumano’y may binubuong collaboration ang dalawang bilyonaryo.

Samantala, mas malaki, mas diverse, at mas maraming kuwento ang hatid ng TV5 para sa second half of 2026 as the Kapatid Network strengthens its programming portfolio across television and digital platforms.

The network’s major programming push builds on the strong reception of its current shows, led by A Secret in Prague and My Bespren Emman, na patuloy na nakatatanggap ng magagandang reviews at bumubuo ng solid following across different platforms.

Headlined by Andrea Brillantes and Enrique Gil, A Secret in Prague continues to engage audiences through its exciting mix of action, romance and drama.

Sinusundan ng serye ang kuwento ni Chiara, isang empowered young woman whose journey of discovery brings her closer to uncovering the most important secret of her life. With its expanded availability across TV5 and ABS-CBN platforms, mas marami na ang nakakasubaybay sa serye, further strengthening its place in TV5’s primetime lineup.

Samantala, patuloy namang naghahatid ng puso, pag-asa at inspirasyon sina Shaina Magdayao at JM de Guzman sa My Bespren Emman. Now part of TV5’s Hapon Champion lineup and also available to Kapamilya viewers, the series has built a loyal multiplatform following through its moving story of friendship, family, resilience and second chances.

Mas malawak na audience na rin ang naaabot ng veteran broadcaster na si Korina Sanchez-Roxas through Face to Face with Ate Koring, which is now seen across TV5 and ABS-CBN platforms.

Kasabay nito, magkakaroon din ng bagong tahanan sa Kapatid Network ang kanyang award-winning magazine program na Rated Korina, further strengthening TV5’s public-service and lifestyle programming.

Kasama rin sa mas pinalawak na entertainment lineup ng TV5 ang primetime series na Sigabo at Someone, Someday, pati na ang hit game shows na Everybody Sing at Kapamilya, Deal or No Deal. The growing audience response to these programs gives the network a strong foundation as it mounts an even bigger content offering for the rest of the year.

Ayon kay TV5 President and CEO Guido R. Zaballero, nananatiling nakasentro sa mga mano­nood ang patuloy na paglago at pagpapalawak ng network.

“Across television, digital, or wherever audiences choose to watch, we’re committed to telling stories that inspire, entertain, inform and connect. Our mission remains the same: to bring great Filipino stories to more Filipinos,” Zaballero said.

“As we build on the momentum of the first half of the year, we are strengthening our programming, expanding our digital presence, and creating more opportunities for Filipino stories and talents to reach wider au­diences,” he added.

Leading TV5’s upcoming entertainment slate is Mommy Guard, marking the much-awaited television reu­nion of Marvin Agustin and Jolina Magdangal.

Isa sa pinakaminahal at pinakamatatag na tambalan ng 1990s, muling magsasama sina Marvin at Jolina sa isang fresh morning series na puno ng romance, comedy, family moments at mga rela­table na realidad ng modern Filipino life.

Dadalhin ng programa ang kanilang unmistakable chemistry sa bagong ge­neration of viewers, habang bibigyan naman ang longtime fans ng pagkakataong muling kiligin sa tambalang naging malaking bahagi ng isang iconic era in Philippine entertainment.

Joining Marvin and Jolina in Mommy Guard are Cedrick Juan, Pearl Gonzales, Nathalie Apollo, Amo Wilding, Celyn David, Patrick Ballesteros and Roxanne Guinoo.

Pinalalakas din ng TV5 ang morning news offering nito through the launch of Frontline sa Umaga on Aug. 10.

The new program brings together Ed Lingao, Angela Lagunzad-Castro, Maoui David, Chiqui Roa-Puno, Alvin Pura and Dr. Richard Gadiaza. Sama-sama nilang ihahatid ang pinakamahahalagang balita, relevant conversations, public-service information, health insights, at practical guidance na kailangan ng Filipino viewers sa pagsisimula ng kanilang araw. The program expands the established Frontline news brand and further strengthens News5’s presence across the most important parts of the broadcast day.

Further strengthening TV5’s commitment to discovering and developing Filipino talent is Star Worx: True to Life. The new property will give emerging artists a bigger platform to showcase their abilities, connect with audiences, and become part of fresh Filipino stories across television and digital media.

More than a talent showcase, Star Worx: True to Life represents TV5’s long-term investment in building the next generation of personalities and performers who can take part in the network’s growing portfolio of dramas, variety shows, digital content, live events and branded entertainment properties.

‘Yan at marami pang iba ang mapapanood sa patuloy na pagpapa­lakas ng TV5 sa kanilang mga programa.
