Pinoy Taste of TV Programs : Konti Lang Bang Brains ang Kailangan at Sasaya Ka Na?


Wazzup Pilipinas!

I've read somewhere that the country’s leading and largest multimedia conglomerate, remained on top of the ratings game in July with more Filipinos tuning in to its programs with a total day audience share of 42%.....

But to what extent?.... by feeding us with lengthy afternoon-until-evening tele-dramas, old school superstitions and far-flung barrio beliefs, local versions of foreign reality and talent shows tweaked to the Pinoy taste, sensationalized tabloid news composed of street gang rumbles and vehicular accidents, commercials and ads in disguise of business and entrepreneurship shows, pseudo-science crap that they don't bother to explore any scientific basis, poorly Tagalog-dubbed Korean, or whatever, tele-dramas that loss its magic after being converted into a "Tagalized" joke , and a lot of other so-called madlang people "entertainment" filled with conyos and Fil-Am "ingliseros" that's only making us insecure of our height, the color of our skin and our carabao english.

It is sad to say that these shows were all designed for the no-brainer and "mabababaw ang kaligayahan". They don't exactly teach you but only "tease". What is worst is that many of us were already brainwashed and, with very little argument, has readily accepted these inferior and low-quality TV programs.

Kuya Paolo Pingo : Smile Ka Din, Konti Lang




Wazzup Pilipinas!


McDonalds' latest commercial has gained popularity, both positive and negative, and I'm not talking about the previous Minions toy craze collectables found on every happy Meal, or even the Smurfs 2 collectable toys that they followed next (but not as cute as the Minions toys).

What I'm really referring to is Kuya Paolo Pingo - yeah ....that character that depicted a somewhat.... himself.... which caught the attention of many viewers as to how to react appropriately to the commercial. From being sexist II meant to say racist - aftershock of that Chito Miranda video scandal) to "getting sympathy or pity from the mass audience", there has been a lot said about the new TVC of McDonalds.

But it was for me touching indeed. Heartwarming to say the least. Well, the intention was to indeed create a discussion among the people who will watch it for the first time, and share the experience among friends and colleagues - by tapping onto the subconsciously "good" personality of people.

Out from that commercial came memes (as with other popular topics online).... In majority, these memes were not designed for the purpose of attacking the commercial or even the lead characters portraying the roles of brothers.

It was endearing and oh so cute as many tried to create their own version of giving out just the right "Konti Lang" smile!
