Kapitan Boom Will Be Missed

And since Kapitan Boom guested on ASAP '08, I took screencaps of him, for we might not see him again anymore (aside from the pilot episode of Varga, that is).

Bye Bye Boom, Hello Varga

jon avila and jay-r siaboc

Kapitan Boom will have its final episode tonight, July 26, 2008. Jon Avila's fans will miss seeing those muscles, but he can still be seen via ASAP every Sunday noon.

Kapitan Boom will be replaced by another Mars Ravelo classic, Varga. Varga is very much like Darna, the ultimate creation of Ravelo. Varga was created in 1947 and appeared in Bulaklak magazine. The writer later transferred to Pilipino Komiks and his Varga became Darna. Copyright issues, perhaps, and he wasn't able to bring Varga along with him to another publication.

Varga will be played by Mariel Rodriguez, who has done more hosting than acting jobs. Will her Varga be a hit? We'll soon find out.

Haven't Been Booming

I was kinda excited when I first heard about Kapitan Boom. But now that it's already here, I find it hard to watch. Even with Jon Avila's bulging form and JR Siaboc's cute face, I really can't force myself to sit down and watch something that lacks plot and good story line. I'll just look at Jon Avila and JR Siaboc in pics.

With that said, I would go on to say that I opt to watch Pinoy Idol on Saturdays. And it was the Top 12 girls' night last Saturday. I instantly liked "the pastor's daughter" Sue Ellen. She can sing, and she looks cool.

With the Top 12 guys, I liked Elliot Andal. I liked his version of Sana ay Ikaw Na Nga which was also praised by Jolina Magdangal and Ogie Alcasid. Sad to say he was among the first 4 contestants to get booted out of the show. The other 3 contestants were Dio Paolo, Drizzle Muniz, and Bev Ejercito.

Pinoy Idol doesn't sound good on tv... Or is it just my tv?

Kapitan Boom!

Jon Avila (formerly Jon Mullaly) of the PBB Celebrity Edition 2 is gonna be Kapitan Boom on the show with the same title. His hunky appeal and Caucasian looks have caught much attention in the local showbiz even before the PBB stint. How can you ignore this pic, anyway?
He would be getting his much deserved attention for sure, with more focus on his buffed bod rather than his acting. Well, that is why he is Kapitan Boom. All covered but all curves visible. And ooh, look at the curves.
