(no login) Honest observation on what's going on:
May 6 2008, 7:24 AM
I am not here to offend anyone with my posting but just to air out my observations towards ABS CBN regarding Prinsesa ng Banyera fiasco.
Towards March 2008, we heard the possibility of including a certain actor into the show. The Tjtin fans protested to possibly not include him since this is a tjtin show which we waited long enough for this to happen. Prior to this show, Kristine has several shows with this actor & we did not clamor for tj to be included in any one of their shows. We respected them by letting them be and we just waited for our turn.
Then towards the end of April 2008, we got positive confirmation that there will be book three from ABS CBN spokeperson - Ms. Rizza Ebriega. Articles that promised us a better book 3 focused on the love story of eric and ning. It made us very hopeful. Prior to that there were articles that it's confirmed that "certain actor" will not be added to the show. But right after that, we were bombarded with negative articles trashing Kristine Hermosa's attitudes in the set. Then some articles has circulated about a fight between her and the show's director - Andoy Ranay. But then later on, they claimed that they kissed and made up. Making it appear as if "all is well that ends well" and they professed that they were ready to keep going to make a better show for the fans' sake.
But then just recently, another shocker came about...there were articles that the show will be cancelled. First a blind item from Dolly Ann Carvajal, citing the leading lady's diva attitude as the reason for the cancellation. Then, a Pex poster named Ayek arrogantly claimed that the show will ended soon because of the tjtin fans' attitude(?). Third, a scene seen from another tabloid claimed it will end because of it's poor ratings and lack of sponsors which is contradictory to the ABS CBN's press releases. A total opposite of the nationwide ratings report that PnBanyera is doing well not only in the Phils but worldwide through TFC & TFC Now. Regarding lack of sponsors the long lists of ads/sponsors as posted above contradict that as well.
Then another tabloid article by Regee Bonoan was posted by a Pex poster named gintonic claiming that it will end because Kristine will be busy with Banana Split -- a sitcom which will be aired once a week with multitude of casts other than her.
At this writing, ABS CBN has not come up with the official announcement. I am curious with what they will have to claim this time. It better be good and credible.
I hope they will not fortify the reputaion of being "the giant network with no word of honor" - which is a contrary to what the Founders (Eugenio Lopez II et all) has established this network to be.
We and the general public will be watching closely.
