Sony Channel Brings Comedic Combination of Family Fun and Workplace Wackiness on ROFLing Sundays This January


Wazzup Pilipinas!

January is up for grabs - and laughs ­– as Sony Channel livens up your ROFLing* Sundays in the new year. Enjoy a primetime combination that raises comedy to a whole new level of fun and laughter with the returning season of the workplace comedy, Superstore, and the premiere of the brand new sitcom, The Carmichael Show.

SUPERSTORE Season 2

It’s back to work for the retail employees of Cloud 9 after their protest which they thought would paralyze the store’s operations.

In the new season, things appear to get better for Amy (America Ferrera), Jonah (Ben Feldman), Dina (Lauren Ash), Garrett (Colton Dunn) Mateo (Nico Santos), Cheyenne (Nichole Bloom) and Glenn (Mark McKinney). They return to their workplaces and try to keep their acts together as a team as they haggle through corporate politics, seasonal sales, lost and found items, storage theft, another protest, and more.

Superstore Season 2 premieres on January 22, Sunday at 7:30pm.



THE CARMICHAEL SHOW Seasons 1 & 2

Standup comedian Jerrod Carmichael navigates through life with his liberal girlfriend Maxine (Amber West), and his opinionated family - his admirable brother Bobby (Lil Rey Howery) and his old-fashioned parents, the outspoken Joe (David Alan Grier) and the deeply religious Cynthia (Loretta Devine). Spirited conversations dominate their daily routine as they discuss social issues of the day in humorous fashion.

Each argument tests the ties that bind Jerrod’s relationships with his girlfriend and family, and the values they learn from every verbal tussle they get into. In the end, they forgive and find each other in more heartwarming ways than one.

The Carmichael Show Seasons 1 & 2 premieres on January 22, Sunday at 8:00pm with 2 episodes back-to-back.




ROFLing* Roll-On-The-Floor- Laughing


Sony Channel is available on SKYCable Channel 35, Cignal Digital TV Channel 120, Global Destiny Cable Channel 62, and Cable Link Channel 39.

Eating only 20 grams of nuts per day can lower your risk of dying by up to 20%.

Having a small portion of nuts in your daily ration can save you from type 2 diabetes, scientific research of this fact is under way.

There is no universal remedy for all diseases which might happen, but one is known for sure – nature worked it all out for us long before doctors appeared. Eating just a few grams of nuts a day is a natural substitution for the expensive and frequently ineffective medicine. Different types of nuts can be found in abundance in any country. They are available everywhere.

There is one more interesting fact about nuts – following the scientific classification nuts are regarded as fruits. Regardless of this technical nomenclature, unlike most kinds of fruit, they have no sweet taste and have an increased fat rate.
