Anne Curtis’s much-anticipated return to It’s Showtime has set the internet ablaze, with netizens showering the show’s social media team with praise for their witty and humorous promotional artcards.
The Filipino-Australian actress and Kapamilya host, affectionately dubbed “The Dyosa,” made her comeback to the noontime show today after a brief one-day hiatus to attend her daughter Dahlia’s moving-up day. The announcement, shared via an X post by @itsShowtimeNa, featured a glamorous artcard declaring “The Dyosa Is Return,” playfully mimicking a 2022 GMA Network post about singer Golden Cañedo’s return to All-Out Sundays—complete with the same grammatical quirk, “Is Return…”
The post quickly became a viral sensation, with netizens lauding the It’s Showtime social media team for their clever reference. “Bwahaha your soc med team deserves a raise!!! Ang galing galing ng reference OMG,” exclaimed user @OlliDomz, capturing the collective awe of fans.
Similarly, @ewaIIpapermona couldn’t contain her laughter, posting, “ang tawa qqqq whahahahahhahaha,” while @xxxjeezy shared, “The way I knew about the reference shutta kayoooo .”
User @nekoduh also chimed in, noting, “pati pala caption hahahaha,” appreciating how even the caption mirrored the rival network’s style, showcasing the team’s sharp wit. The playful jab, paired with Anne’s stunning image in a golden outfit, struck a chord with fans, amplifying the excitement for her return.
This isn’t the first time It’s Showtime’s posts about Anne’s comeback have taken the internet by storm. Previous announcements on Facebook have racked up hundreds of thousands of reactions, reflecting her massive appeal. One video post, styled like moviegoer testimonials, featured staff and fans sharing heartfelt reactions to Anne’s return, becoming a massive hit online. Another creative “paandar” saw the show releasing a mock election pre-poll survey, highlighting Anne’s high “attendance trust ratings,” which fans found both hilarious and endearing. A separate Facebook post tracking Anne’s attendance streak garnered nearly half a million reactions in under 24 hours, underscoring her status as a beloved Kapamilya icon.

Even Anne herself couldn’t resist the humor. Reacting to a “BREAKING NEWS” tweet styled like a flash news report, she responded, “NAKAKATAWA YAN HAAAAAAA,” clearly delighted by the team’s creativity. With her return to the It’s Showtime stage on June 6, fans are ready for more “good vibes,” as the show promised.
As the social media team continues to deliver viral content, it’s clear they’ve mastered the art of keeping the madlang pipol entertained—and Anne’s return is just the beginning of more memorable moments.
