as of me, I'm not into 2 or 7 fanatic thing . there's a show I watch in 2 & 7 also. coz in that way I can see both side the best program they can offer and also the best of their talents.
What's important is that they entertain the televiewers.
For me kasi, kapag wala akong napapansin na something new and different sa isang show, hindi ko na siya pinapanood. I tried to watch Encantadia before but because of the LOTR styles niya, nagiging corny na. Yung ibang shows, nakita ko na rin sa ABS-CBN. Halata ang panggagaya. Gusto mo isa-isahin ko pa eh.
Sample:
Bakit ba nagkaroon ng...
Bubble Gang Jr.? --- dahil sa Goin' Bulilit.
Mahiwagang Baul? --- dahil sa Wansapanataym
SOP Gigsters? --- dahil sa ASAP Fanatics
* i've seen some shows of both ABS & GMA, they both copy each other...
* ABS is good in "teledrama"... GMA is good in "telefantasya"...
* one thing ABS can't topple or imitate on GMA is the longest running top-rated noontime variety show, Eat Bulaga! their Game KNB & Wowowie is still nothing compared to EB...
* watching cable TV is more fun... like JackTV... very funny and interesting to watch...
para sa akin... wala talagang originality yung 2 network... kailangan pa ata nang 2 network manonood nang cable TV para makaisip nang anung klaseng game show, telenovelas, at kung anu anu pang gig ang gagawin nila.... kaya pare-parehas lang sila... mas maganda pa manonood nang Foreign movies at foreign Serues show kasi piangiisip ka pa nila (Like CSI and prison break... its good)
Honestly, whenever I watch Filipino movies, I feel like I'm back in the late 80's, early 90's but with crappy actors. With some exceptions though. But overall, it's a bit redundant and they really need new ideas.
