Despite voting “yes” to junking the ABS-CBN franchise, Yul Servo hopes that the Network will resolve its “violations” in an interview on Thursday, July 21.
Servo said he wanted ABS-CBN to have a new franchise for another 25 years.
“Siyempre gusto kong makabalik sila [ABS-CBN].
“Nagkaroon lang ng pag-uusap na ganun [junked franchise], pero ako, kahit wala sila sa ere, yung asawa ko laging ABS-CBN ang pinapanood.
“Napapanood pa naman namin sila. At kung magkakaroon ng pagkakataon na maging maayos, bakit hindi?
“Nung una sumuporta ako [sa ABS-CBN], tapos may nakita nga na dapat ayusin. Pero siyempre ako, love ko iyan, e.”
He added, “Ako naman, bahagi ako ng industriyang ito. Masakit para sa akin, pero minsan kailangan mong lumayo.
“Ako naman, kung magiging maayos, ako pa ang manliligaw sa aking mga congressman.
“Anim yung congressman dun sa Kongreso dahil anim yung distrito namin [sa Manila]. Yung dalawa naman dun, nakasuporta naman.
“Sana nga maayos [ng ABS-CBN] para mapanood sila uli ng taumbayan. Tatlo lang iyan [na major networks]—ABS CBN, GMA, TV5.”
Servo said the comments from bashers are not a big deal for him.
He said, “Okay lang, opinyon nila yun, e. Saka siyempre hindi naman nila alam yung nasa sarili ko, di ba? Basta ako, pangarap ko ring makabalik sila [ABS-CBN] uli.”
Servo served as the third district representative of Manila from 2016 to 2021. He is the incumbent vice mayor of the city.
He appeared in some ABS-CBN programs.
