Toinks!

It’s official: Willie Revillame is not returning to Wowowee, because the show is getting cancelled.

In its place will be “Pilipinas, Win na Win”, a similarly-formatted noontime show to be headlined by Robin Padilla and Kris Aquino. Like Wowowee, the new program will be a game and variety show, to be shown right after the ratings giant Showtime. The new show will start on Saturday, July 31, 2010.

Joining Robin and Kris are Wowowee alums Pokwang, Mariel Rodriguez, and Valerie Concepcion. Pilipinas For The Win will come from the same team who brought us Wowowee: Director Johnny Manahan and creative director Edgar “Bobot” Mortiz.

This strong statement came from discussions by ABS-CBN head honchos, amidst rumors that Willie Revillame is returning to his five-year noontime show.
