Fans of Vice Ganda may soon rejoice as rumors of the return of ‘Gandang Gabi, Vice’ (GGV) continue to circulate.
The popular weekend talk show, which ran for nine years, has been off the air for five years but could soon make a highly anticipated comeback.
In a recent episode of Ogie Diaz’s ‘Showbiz Update’ vlog, co-hosts Mama Loi and Tita Jegs discussed the buzz surrounding Vice Ganda’s future projects. Ogie confirmed that while ‘Pilipinas Got Talent’ (PGT) is set to return, Vice Ganda will not be part of the judging panel this time around.
“Si Vice Ganda na hindi na raw magdya-judge sa PGT kasi nga pinaplano na ang pagbabalik ng GGV o ‘Gandang Gabi, Vice’,” Ogie revealed.
The revival of PGT will reportedly proceed with a new panel of judges. Vice previously served as a judge on the talent show alongside Robin Padilla, Mr. Freddie M. Garcia, and Angel Locsin.
According to Ogie, ABS-CBN may be planning to bring back ‘GGV’ to capitalize on the current trend of celebrity interviews.
“Kung mapapansin mo, nauuso na ngayon mga interbyuhan. Baka gustong isabay ng ABS-CBN ‘yun. At ito ang in ngayon at funny pa na si Vice Ganda ang mag-i-interview. Balik natin ang GGV,” Ogie said.
Mama Loi echoed this sentiment, pointing out that Vice has hinted at the show’s return on social media.
“Saka madalas tinatanong ‘yan ni Meme sa mga post niya na, ‘Gusto n’yo na bang magbalik ang GGV?’ May clamor kumbaga. Maraming nagtatanong sa kanya kung kelan magkakaroon ulit,” Mama Loi said.
Ogie also reminisced about the show’s fun segments and stunts.
“Saka may mga gimik din kasi ang GGV, di ba? Exciting ‘yan. Ako parati kong pinanonood ang GGV,” he added.
If ‘GGV’ does return, Vice Ganda could be on television every day of the week. He currently hosts ‘It’s Showtime’ from Monday to Saturday, and ‘GGV’ would take the Sunday slot.
“Partida ‘yan wala pang prangkisa,” Ogie quipped, referencing ABS-CBN’s ongoing franchise issues.
Fans eagerly await confirmation of GGV’s comeback. With the demand for the show’s return growing, many are hopeful that Vice Ganda will soon light up Sunday nights once again.
