Among TV5 programs credited for the weekend boost is the show “Talentadong Pinoy,” which also enjoyed a higher than usual during its September 19 episode.
Ryan Agoncillo, show figurehead and host, is proud of the results, which he said is reflective of the hard work he and the show’s production staff had continuously poured into the show.
“Hindi rin naman naging madali, matagal rin naman bago kami napansin,” said he in a taped interview aired over “Paparazzi” on September 26.

“Salamat po sa inyong suporta,” Oyo Boy Sotto, the one of the series’ main cast, intoned in a separate interview.
