So what will happen to Willie Revillame?  Well, ABS-CBN on a report yesterday on TV Patrol said that the network is planning to put up a new show for the former host.

All in all, it seems this “FTW” show is just a rehashed “Wowowee” as most of its host is still the same.

Any thoughts about this new show replacing Wowowee and with Kris Aquino to have on your TV daily during noontime?
