"Happy Yipee Yehey" to Air It's Final Episode on February 4, 2012 and Will Be Replaced By "Palibhasa Tanghali"?

It was posted in this blog the ABS-CBN's noontime show "Happy Yipee Yehey" will be cancelled and that it will be replaced by "Showtime". But according to the lates developments, "Happy Yipee Yehey" will be replaced with a new noontime show titled "Palibhasa Tanghali" which will be hosted by Richard Gomez, Joey Marquez and John Estrada.


"Happy Yipee Yehey" premiered in February 12 last year and will air it's final episode on February 4, 2012, that is less than a year.

If the rumors about a new noontime show "Palibhasa Tanghali" is true, will this be the show that will finally topple the Philippines' longest noontime show "Eat Bulaga!" I don't think so. It will take more than the trio of Richard Gomez, Joey Marquez, and John Estrada to take out the triumvirate of Tito, Vic, and Joey who has been giving happiness and inspiration to the Filipinos for three decades now.

"Eat Bulaga!" has been there after 3 people powers, and 6 presidents and it is not just a TV show but a way of life. And besides, the title "Palibhasa Tanghali" is derived from ABS-CBN's hitt 90s sitcom "Palibhasa Lalake" which was also top-billed by Richard, Joey and John. The Kapamilya Network will just recycling the defunct sitcom but in a different format and a little bit of twists in the title. And lastly, why is ABS-CBN keeps on experimenting on different trios to match the staying powers of TVJ? APO, John, Randy, and Willie, Rey Valera, Nonoy Zuniga and Rico J. Puno, these are the trios that tried to match TVJ but all of them failed. The Kapamilya Network creative crew should try something different just like when that of "Wowowee" which was hosted by the controversial Willie Revillame, "Eat Bulaga!" had a hard time getting rid of that show.
