In a two-minute rant, former Showtime judge Rosanna Roces ripped into teachers who she believed weren’t teachers but merely repeaters, after a contestant from Calamba couldn’t answer why Jose Rizal’s family name is “Rizal” when his dad is Francisco Mercado and his mom is Teodora Alonzo.
To top this all off, she followed it up by mentioning she was molested by one of her former teachers, who is apparently dead now. Perfect lunchtime banter!
If you’re ever wondering why TVJ is considered the best noontime trio of all time over Willie, John, and Randy or even Buboy, Dani, and Jim, perhaps taking a look at the latter trio’s track record at noontime hosting would be a huge hint.
Throughout its three-year run, ‘Sang Linggo nAPO Sila was supposed to be an “alternative” to Eat Bulaga instead of merely a competitor, and it was highlighted by their supposedly “more intelligent humor.” When this didn’t prove to be a hit with the masses, management asked the three hosts to “tone down” on the humor, and until the day they were asked, they never did. Because APO Hiking Society had no f*cks to give—unless it was for an Aquino, then they gave all the f*cks.
ASAP was the leading Sunday noontime show until maybe a year or two ago. Perhaps in an act of desperation, some of the powers that be at ABS-CBN decided that they needed to come up with something to really stick it to their competition.
HashT5 ended up being one of those ideas.
Anyone with some cardboard we could write on?
If it was an idea by one of the ASAP hosts, it would be great if we knew who it was so we could never trust their judgment ever again.
Just this weekend, the internet went nuts when Tito Sotto, live on Eat Bulaga, listened to a woman who was re-telling how she was taken advantage sexually of some friends she went drinking with. He looked so angry, and just when you expected him to lecture these ne’er do wells about taking advantage of a woman who was clearly drunk and incapable of consent, he promptly decided to blame the victim for what happened to her instead.
Apparently, Tito Sotto thinks that if women never drank, never wore shorts, and stuck to the kitchen, they would never get raped. Unfortunately for him, that’s not how rape works, because the leading cause for rape isn’t what a woman is wearing, or that she went drinking, or that she flirted with a guy—the leading cause for rape would be, SURPRISE! rapists.
It seems a bit two-faced for people to be decrying the CHR for “protecting criminals” while in the same breath “protecting criminals” once the crime becomes rape via blaming the victim.
