A double whammy for Anne Curtis, who is one of the host of Showtime. The hit talent search show, Showtime, has been suspended AGAIN by the MTRCB, this time for one month and with an additional sanction that ABS-CBN cannot replace it with “Magpasikat” or any other talent competition show format.
Here is the statement of ABS-CBN regarding the MTRCB decision on ‘Showtime.’
The decision was not totally unexpected. The MTRCB committee hearing the case could not have contradicted the Chairman who had earlier issued a preventive suspension order of Showtime. ABS-CBN questioned the validity of the preventive suspension order and filed a complaint with the Ombudsman against the MTRCB chairman for violation of the anti-graft and corrupt practices act.
The MTRCB decision is not final and executory. ABS-CBN disagrees with the decision and will appeal such to the Office of the President.
Meantime SHOWTIME goes on!
