As per official statement issued by the said governing body, they have released a resolution dated today, September 28, 2023, that the Reconsideration Motions for
Its Showtime – which was airing on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, A2Z, GTV and Jeepney TV, was REJECTED. This Reconsideration Motion was filed by GMA Network and ABS-CBN Corporation.Let’s recall that on September 4, 2023, the MTRCB has issued a 12-day suspension against It’s Showtime, after a number of complaints has been received against the show, including for the July 25, 2023’s episode, during the segment of “Isip Bata”, following the inappropriate acts in an indecent manner, as well as the other complaints, cases and warnings against the show (including during it’s broadcast on TV5), such as:
1. An inappropriate utterance of the an inappropriate word done by the hosts Jhong Hilario and Vice Ganda, during the January 24, 2023 episode of “It’s Showtime!” in violation of Section 2 (B), Chapter IV of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of Presidential Decree (P.D.) No. 1986*.
2. An inappropriate utterance of the an inappropriate word done by the host Vhong Navarro, during the June 3, 2023 episode of “It’s Showtime!” which is a clear violation of Section 2 (B), Chapter IV of the Implementing Rules and Regulations of P.D. No. 1986**.
3. A prior warning in relation to the utterance of a sexually explicit term on their January 9, 2023 episode.
4. A prior warning in relation to the indecent attire and performance which was done by Kim Duenas during the “Girl on Fire” segment that was aired on February 14, 2023.
A day after (September 5, 2023) the board has issued this suspension order, It’s Showtime continued to air on their channels where this was broadcast, while the decision in relation to the order is not finalized. ABS-CBN filed a Motion for Reconsideration related to it.
Per the board’s charter, as part of the Presidential Decree no. 1986, the respondents may file a motion for reconsideration within fifteen (15) days from the time that this receipt of decision was issued. Since the Board’s Decision (BD) we’ve said earlier was rejected recently, the next step is to appeal to the Office of the President from the time of it’s rejection of it.
So what’s the reaction on it? Did the board blantantly denied by the GMA and ABS-CBN-filed Motions for Reconsideration in relation to It’s Showtime’s 12-day suspension? Did Lala Sotto did something wrong on this controversial issue? Or for any other reasons? Let us know in the comments section.

**This case’s decision is the derelict in the performance of their respective functions and duties under the IRR of P.D. No. 1986, Respondents (ABS-CBN and ZBNI) were sternly warned by the Board that a similar utterance will be dealt with more severely.
