GMA surprised a lot of people when it announced that starting today, Party Pilipinas would now start at 12:30 pm.
Let me theorize why this had to happen:
1. Two of PP’s standouts — Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez — are out of the country for a series of shows with Marian Rivera and Dingdong Dantes. This leaves the show in the hands of Janno Gibbs, Jaya, Mark Bautista and Rachelle Anne Go.
Much of PP’s performers are the young stars of GMA na hindi kasing-init kumpara sa mga young stars ng ABS, lalo na sa ASAP.
2. PP, as well as other GMA shows, is airing less commercials. This is a sign that all is not well with the network right now. Dati-rati, nag-o-overtime ang SOP and Showbiz Central dahil sa dami ng ads, pero ngayon, hindi na. Kaya umiski na ang show.
3. GMA plans to put up a new Sunday show at 11 am. Kapuso Movie Festival is only a filler, like what GMA did before Diz Iz It aired. I have a feeling that it will be a talk show like TV5’s Face to Face na may Sunday edition na rin.
4. I talked to an employee of the Ynares Center and she told me na hindi siya nagandahan ang PP when the show was taped there recently. Mas gusto pa niya ang ASAP.

it’s just a matter of choice. some people may find ASAP better but some may find PP much better. one has his opinion but that doesn’t mean it’s true. every single thing must be regarded to compare the two. be it technical or not, the two have their strengths and flaws. but like i said, it’s just a matter of choice.
