PRESS FORWARD BUTTON FOR THE NEXT PART.
KING OF TALK, BOY ABUNDA, GOES UP-FRONT IN ABS-CBN’S “BOTTOMLINE”!
You’ve witnessed him conduct bold one-on-one interviews and you’ve seen him ask the most controversial questions to the hottest personalities in town. Now, the country’s King of Talk, Boy Abunda, enters a whole new concept of discussion as he goes up-front in ABS-CBN’s newest reality talk show “Bottomline” starting November 28 (Saturday night) after Banana Split.
Boy Abunda is considered one of the most credible hosts on Philippine television today. His followers have seen how he delves into the very heart of the matter/issues and how he deals with diverse kinds of personalities. He has posted the toughest questions and has been able to get frank and honest answers from his guests. These strong points of Boy gave the network the idea of adding a different twist to the usual concept of talk shows. Thus, “Bottomline” is born.
Vince Rodriguez, Bottomline’s Production Manager revealed that the central concept of the show is Boy Abunda himself. “The show didn’t exist outside of Tito Boy, he was really the central figure. It couldn’t have gone to anyone else. He’s really the central concept of the show.” He added, “He’s really passionate about it. He’s very excited because this is something that he really wants to do. He’s an excellent conversationalist. He likes talking to people. He likes picking the brains of people. And he’s very well-read. He watches a lot of news and current affairs shows. He likes learning. So I think he enjoys the interviews because he also learns from them.”
Pear Clemente, the show’s headwriter also shared the same thought.”Tito Boy is a ‘hybrid’ kind of host. He can interview people from different walks of life. Surprisingly, he unfolds the ‘human’ side of his interviewee baring the different aspect of that certain person.”
“Bottomline” is a reality-talk show which involves not only Tito Boy, but also a group of opinionated people with different stances on a subject. They are called the ‘bottomliners’, Bottomline’s executive producer Apples Dela Vega disclosed. “We have a pool of bottomliners. Nagpapalit yu’n depending on the guest. We get six to eight bottomliners from the pool for every episode and through Tito Boy’s interview with the guest, their questions and other issues are answered.”
The show also gives the viewers the privilege to see the whole process of the story development– from conceptualization, to brainstorming, to actual execution of the interview and ending with a post-mortem or assessment of the interview. Boy acts as the moderator of the whole discussion. The bottomliners share what they want to know about the guest. Tito Boy throws in the questions gathered from the brainstorming through no-holds barred interview with the invited guest. Through a monitor, the bottomliners are able to witness the interview. After the session, Boy and the bottomliners assess the whole activity.
In a nutshell, these chosen people from the different sectors of the society are considered as the creators of the program with their strong and varied opinions and questions.- abs-cbn.com

I agree with you Mr. William Manalo. Except for “al members in the war room, are all anti-marlene”. They just have their different opinions to that of Ms. Aguilar’s but they didn’t condemn her, did they?
She is on a higher plane…We will never understand her…
I came across something that I want to share…
Anatomy of Envy…by: Dr. Marcelino D’Ambrosio
When good people come across someone more virtuous, they are grateful. For they are reminded of what they can become, and it encourages them to pursue excellence. They rejoice when a virtuous person is honored, and in fact lead the applause. When wicked people come across someone more virtuous, they are furious. Because such people serve as proof that the wicked could be different. The virtuous person takes away their excuses and exposes their mediocrity, so they resent his success. Rather than emulate the hero and strive to accomplish similar things, they instead seek to destroy him and discredit his work thereby removing the embarrasing threat to their self-respect and their image.
This goes beyond what we customarily mean by the term jealousy, for it is not simply wishing to possess a good thing enjoyed by another. Rather this sort of jealousy concludes, either through laziness or despair, that the good that it desires is impossible to attain, and so aims to obliterate it and the person possessing it. It is the capital sin of envy, and often employs ingenious strategies to bring down its nemesis.
LOL the dude with the white shirt is gaaayyy. It’s pretty freakin’ obvious.
She looks pretty sure of what she’s sayin’. Either it’s true or she’s got schizophrenia. o_O
