abs-cbn did not renew the blocktime partnership between eat... bulaga! producers
simply because, at that time, they're putting up their own noontime variety show
eat...bulaga! had no choice but to move to another station, for the third time since 1979
television and production exponents inc., the producer of eat... bulaga! headed by mr. antonio tuviera
signed contract with gma-7 along with other tape inc. produced programs, okey ka fairy ko and valiente
with a grand celebration to welcome them live from araneta coliseum
today eat...bulaga! remains to be the undisputed number one noontime show on tv!
and the longest-running one in the land and in the universe
