The hottest stars have been filled once again on IBC-13.

Last January 3, teen sweetheart Janella Salvador will star and host the fantasy anthology Oh My G!, which airs starting this Saturday at 5:30 p.m.

On January 19, two brand new series premiered on the Kapinoy network today. Pirate Kidz: The Next Level (5:30 p.m.), topbilled by the Kapinoy child actors Aldred Nasayao, Lance Lucido, Harvey Bautista, Timothy Chan and Gerald Pesigan, together with IBC new actress Sam Pinto, Alfred Vargas and Max Surban, and he local version of the Taiwanese drama Hayate the Combat Butler (9 p.m.), topbilled by Born to be a Superstar season 3 grand champion Shanne Velasco and Jerome Ponce, debuted showing following the conclusion of the network’s coverage of Pope Francis in Manila earlier this morning.

Tomorrow will see two other shows make their way into the TV5 lineup. The local version of the Australian kids’ show ‘Hi-5′ premieres at 8:30 a.m., while ‘Healing Galing’, a spinoff of the Radyo5 program hosted by Dr. Edinell Calvario, will air at 10:00 a.m. with Hayden Kho as co-host.

The Padilla brothers (Robin, Rommel and BB Gandanghari) will join forces on the sitcom ‘2 1/2 Daddies’, which will air starting this Saturday at 8:00 p.m.. Another sitcom, this time starring Derek Ramsay and Empoy Marquez, will be titled ‘Mac and Chiz’ and will air starting this Sunday at 8:00 p.m.

A pair of talent shows will also spice up TV5’s weekend programming. ‘Move It’, a dance show hosted by Jasmine Curtis-Smith and Tom Taus, premieres this Sunday at 7:00 p.m., while ‘Rising Stars’, a singing competition show hosted by Ogie Alcasid and Venus Raj, will be aired next month.

A new season of ‘Wattpad Presents’ will also see the light of day, as new love stories featuring television’s rising young talents will be featured starting tonight at 9:00 p.m. And for those in need of love advice, call Papa Jack and his new show ‘Call Me Papa Jack’, which airs starting this Saturday at 10:00 p.m.

Still to come for the Kapatid network are:
 * ‘E5′, a showbiz, lifestyle and fashion show hosted by KC Montero, Grace Lee, Tim Yap, IC Mendoza and Divine Lee
 * ‘Extreme Challenge: Kaya Mo Ba ‘To’, an adventure reality show hosted by Derek Ramsay and features select teams of ‘The Amazing Race Philippines 2′
 * ‘No Harm No Foul’, a sitcom starring Ogie Alcasid, Ritz Azul and several PBA players
 * ‘Kontrabando’, a news satire show hosted by Ramon Bautista, Lourd de Veyra, Jun Sabayton and RA Rivera
 * ‘Last School Standing’, a game show featuring the top high schools in the country

This is definitely a good start for TV5 in 2015. That said, expect the network to plug in more holes as the weeks go on, as they look to stabilize their programming lineup for this year.
