Robin vs. Willie vs. John: The game show ‘war’ is on!

(The Philippine Star) | Updated March 5, 2016 - 12:00am

When GMA decided to put Willie Revillame’s (below) Wowowin as pre-programming for its early-evening newscast 24 Oras for it to be competitive with ABS-CBN's TV Patrol which is always a bit ahead in the ratings and IBC's Express Balita, it didn’t take long for IBC-13 to come up with a game show (more prizes, more fun, more pa-more?) called Kwarta o Kahon to be pitted against Wowowin and another is the premiere of ABS-CBN's Game ng Bayan with Robin Padilla (below) is the same date, with no less than John Estrada (below) as host (with Ingrid dela Paz as co-host).

The game show “war” starts on Monday, March 7, at exactly 5 p.m. Viewers will surely have fun switching channels continuously (unless they have three TV sets) to find out which show is better, which host is more ‘with it,’ and which show offers more games with more prizes.

The timeslot, which used to be ruled by Koreanovelas, is getting to be more exciting, isn’t it?

Stay tuned…to both channels!
