The pilot episode of the new noontime game-variety show ‘It’s Your Lucky Day’ made waves on social media platforms in the Philippines as it began its 12-day run on Saturday, October 14, 2023.
The program temporarily takes the slot of ‘It’s Showtime,’ which faced a suspension order from the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB), a decision that ABS-CBN did not contest.
Hosted by the charismatic Luis Manzano and joined by the ‘Lucky Stars’ cast, including Robi Domingo, Jennica Garcia, Melai Cantiveros, Francine Diaz, Seth Fedelin, Long Mejia, Negi, Divine Tetay, Petite, and special guest Shaina Magdayao, ‘It’s Your Lucky Day’ aimed to entertain the audience, offering prizes and luck through an array of fun games.
Among the highlights of the show was Luis Manzano’s humorous remark, which drew attention and delight on various social media platforms.
Speaking to his co-hosts, he stated, “Naniniwala ako ngayon, e, gagawa tayo ng history. Alam niyo ba ang mga kabataan ay pagkatapos ng ilang taon, pag-uusapan tayo. Nasa libro tayo ng HeKaSi.”
“Ang tanong, kung bakit tayo pupunta sa history? Kasi first time sa lahat ng shows ng ABS-CBN, kahit sa buong industriya. Hindi pa tayo natatapos ng unang episode, maa-announce na natin ang huling dalawang linggo.”
Many netizens and viewers appreciated Luis Manzano’s comedic timing, stating that it complements the noontime show perfectly. “It’s Showtime” is scheduled to return on October 28, featuring “Mini Ms. U: The Cutest Finale,” leaving fans with eager anticipation.
