NAGLABAS na ng pahayag ang ABS-CBN na hindi na aapela at sa halip ay susundin na lamang ang ruling ng Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) na 12-day airing suspension ng noontime show na “It’s Showtime” na magsisimula sa Oct. 14.
“We have received the decision of the Movie and Television Review and Classification Board on our Motion for Reconsideration regarding ‘It’s Showtime’ and are currently exploring all our remedies and options.
“In the meantime, since the imposed suspension is not yet final and executory, we would like to reassure our audiences that ‘It’s Showtime’ will continue to be seen on Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, and GTV. It is also available on Kapamilya Online Live, iWantTFC, and TFC,” pahayag ng ABS-CBN Corporation.
Nag-ugat ang suspension order ng MTRCB matapos umanong makatanggap ng maraming complaints sa July 25 episode ng show kung saan ang hosts ay nagpakita ng “indecent manners” sa kanilang “Isip Bata” segment.
Nag-file ang ABS-CBN ng motion for reconsideration subalit ibinasura ito ng MTRCB.
Nag-umpisang mapanood ang “It’s Showtime” sa GMA Network’s GTV noong July 1.
Kaugnay ng suspensyon ng “It’s Showtime,” pansamantalang ipapalit dito ang “It’s Your Lucky Day” na iho -host nina Luis Manzano, Melai Cantiveros, Robi Domingo, Andrea Brillantes, Francine Diaz, Seth Fedelin, Negi at Long Mejia starting October 14.
