In light of the trademark renewal, Eat Bulaga host Paolo Contis treated his co-workers to a delightful feast, celebrating the momentous occasion. The gesture came as TAPE Inc. secured ten more years of ownership for the “Eat Bulaga” trademark.
“Thanks Paolo Contis,” expressed Bullet Jalosjos, TAPE’s chief financial officer, in gratitude for the celebration.
Joey de Leon, known for his playful banter, previously teased, “RENEWAL versus NUMERAL? Ten more years of EB (Everyday Bashing) Happy? Basta ako I’m still with EB, ah ah, not that EB but with Ellen and Barbie!”

With the trademark renewal secured, the legacy of “Eat Bulaga” as one of the country’s most cherished and influential noontime shows remains strong. Fans and viewers eagerly await more exciting episodes filled with laughter and inspiration from the beloved program.
Earlier, Joey, along with Tito Sotto and Vic Sotto, filed a case against TAPE Inc. and GMA Network, seeking to cancel the trademark registration of “Eat Bulaga” and its logo.
Amidst the ongoing controversy, the TVJ trio remains firm in their belief that they will once again use the title “Eat Bulaga” when the right time comes, as they assert their status as the true owners alongside all the legitimate Dabarkads. As discussions continue, the show’s fans eagerly anticipate what the future holds for the beloved and iconic show.
