Showtime - The Return

"Showtime" returns on air today as the temporary suspension given by the MTRCB was lifted. The return was announced yesterday towards the end of the last episode of "Magpasikat" which made the hosts of the show teary-eyed with joy. "Magpasikat" was the show that temporarily replaced "Showtime" for a week while it was suspended.

ABS-CBN's official statement regarding the matter (issued yesterday):
ABS-CBN is happy to announce that the talent-variety program "Showtime" will return on-air starting tomorrow, 19 Jan 2010, following the issuance of a temporary restraining order by the Court of Appeals enjoining the MTRCB from continuing to enforce the preventive suspension order on the show.

We welcome the CA resolution dated 15 January 2010, which states: "For reasons afore-stated, and as prayed for by petitioner, let a TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER be issued, as it is hereby issued, effective sixty (60) days from notice hereof, enjoining respondent MTRCB, including any and all persons acting in their behalf and under their command and authority, from continuing to enforce the Preventive Suspension Order dated January 11, 2010 issued against petitioner, pending the resolution of the instant petition."

Vice Ganda, who acted as one of the hosts in "Magpasikat" returns to his seat as one of the judges together with Andrew E, Joy Viado, Wyngard Tracy, and Karla Henry.
