Showtime is really one of TFC The Filipino Channel best TV programs. It is fun and entertaining. Amazing Filipino talents throughout the show. We sometimes watch it over and over on our TFC box in Canada. TFC box allows us to watch the Showtime anytime we want and we can fast forward, rewind and replay. No commercials too so overall it saves us lots of time and very convenient so it easy to watch Showtime, Magandang Gabi, Vice, ASAP, other great TFC teleseryes shows as many times as we want. Love all TFC shows!
Oh yg TFT TFT tv
Looks very interesting. I love talent type shows so I'm sure I would love Showtime.
You know what guys (All TFC Staff and Artist)...You all knew that we Filipinos here in America or worldwide phrase and so grateful from all those joys you're givimg us, so ,hopefullynext time ,you should be careful playing with our minds and feelings....this is regarding your pakulo about last week's farewell for that SHOWTIME game show, honestly you made us (Filipinos )felt stupid that we got sad and etc...thinking that this shows over,then,now found out that you'll have it get started again this Zmonday(Feb.6'12)....Helllllllo!...What do you think you're doing all of your viewers feelings???....Now, happy? After that?...Anyways, anything that's good nor anything bad...."is still publicity for all of you guys"! Have more success!!!!!
ABS-CBN made Showtime Noontime show, thinkin its the host that was makin money for them but infact it was the old showtime concept what people are watchin for...madlang people nation wide tryin to compete for the show. as for now.... i just turn off my tv and look for other channel to watch on... goog luck ABS-cbn
Agree with Victor, this new Showtime format is boring. They should have changed the name because this isn't the same Showtime we know and have grown to love.
The new SHOWTIME format can be described with one word.
BORING.
Sorry to say that. The old format was fine and MY GIRL was a real hit.
I love so many talented people,lalo na kabataan,one thing ang hihdi nila gusto ang magkaroon ng isang hurado na mayabang,pangit na to see mukhang kabayo nga,ang akala ningyo siguro na tatawa kami rito back in canada akala mo kung sino paano siya nakapunta sa show.halatang mayabang,punta na lang kami las vegas kaysa manood ng show ninyo.we talking ur show,one thing na hindi ninyo nagagawa is wacth ur on show,think and find out,hindi pang abroad ang bakla,lalao pa nga her,he attitude.ok sorry po comments lang ng nakakarami,thank u po
I do not think your showtime is entertaining at all what a waste of 3 hrs watching non-sense entertainment and singers who cant even deliver what a joke!! it is totally waste of money paying for TFC. Your host Anne Curtis she is a big laughing joke to this 3rd world country! I will not watch your program...
I love showtime but it would be really cool if tfc would show the entire show. The show today was cut and didn't even show if the contestant won the game or not. Seriously? What the heck!
Where are the principal host ? Anne Curtis n Vhong Navarro? The show is different without them
bring back the old showtime? or just take the whole show off cuz this new showtime are boring and stupid it makes me fall asleep and listen to my own music at my ipod instead............
Thanks for showing our famous filipino delicacies. I like the dancetoday and there music . Pilipinong pilipino. Pls show more of Ann chance. Its an exercicise for the hearts When Ann turn she need to enhale then exhale good for our lungs. Go Ann. I Love showtime because of your kindness n down to earth attitude.

Well, I'm not so enthuse about this show. I enjoyed the previous show that had been replaced by Showtime. Please refrain from making fun of people, putting people down, making fun of skinny people, fat people, or even those that doesn't seem to look as good as everyone else. What I have notice many of this talk show people like Vice Ganda, Bong Navarro, Joseph Estrada, Pokwang... makes fun of people, just to be funny. let me tell you, it is not funny. It makes me feel very angry to hear how you all put people down to be funny. At the cost of someones self steem, you all try to be funny but you are not funny.
I am a TFC subscriber and I just wanted to know how to get an sched to watch showtime in the Philippines as we are due for holiday this coming May'12. Appreciate if someone can guide me.
Thanks
SHOWTIME IS A FUN SHOW. HURRAY TO ALL THE CAST YOU MAKE ME HAPPY. ANN CURTIS CHANCE AND DOWN TO EARTH ATTITUDE IS A GOOD SAMPLE TO ALL THE YOUNG ONES TO FOLLOW. IT'S A SHOW TO ALL YOUNG, KIDS AND ADULT AS LONG AS YOU ARE GAME AND HAVE TALENT YOU WILL GET A REWARD.SHOWING THE BEAUTIFUL SPOT IN THE DIFFERENT PLACES IN THE PHILIPPINES WILL ATTRACT PEOPLE TO VISIT OUR COUNTRY.IT WILL BOOST OUR TOURISM INDUSTRY. SINGING BEE WITH ANN AS AN EMCEE IS EXCITING AND FUN.
