Jack TV turns 1!

To my friends, my favorite TV channel Jack TV turns one year old. Actually, it started May 2, 2006 at 6 PM. Regardless of its first day in Philippine broadcast history, it has become at the Top 5 slot on one of those surveys. Forget the network wars. Jack TV will probably be the No. 1 cable TV station by January 2007, and the first one to beat ABS- CBN, GMA 7 & ABC 5. Since the other 25% will have to be stuck with those channels, the 3 government stations & at least 5 or 6 UHF stations.

What had Jack TV done in the past year (and 2 months)? Giving more choices for the Pinoy viewer. It also shows TV’s most controversial animated TV series, South Park. Around January 2006, the MTRCB threatened Jack TV for showing explicit & suggestive episodes of South Park. Eventually, they temporarily plugged off South Park. They replaced it with Shorties Watching Shorties. It’s not that bad as South Park but it is also as provocative & explicit as South Park. After the hiatus, South Park called relaunched. Only this time, the word bitch called blanked out (mostly).

Also, Jack TV has all of the WWE programming in the Philippines (licensed by the WWE, of course). There was a Fast Track of WWE Programs for 2 straight days (July 22-23) for us not to be left out in the latest events in the WWE. SmackDown! Will be here on October 21, 2006. Imagine the crowd seeing Batista vs. King Booker in a hardcore match for the WWE World Heavyeight Championship in Araneta Coliseum!

Comedy Central was recently tagged as the next household name for the Filipino male. South Park (recently mentioned in the 2nd paragraph) is part of Comedy Central’s roster since 1997 until probably 2009. Drawn Together is also part of Comedy Central (popular because of its characters, their antics, when Spanky Ham said: we’ll eat like dingoes in a maternity ward, and of course, the hottub scene on its first episode). Ditto to Crank Yankers, Reno 911, Insomniac with Dave Attell, Comedy Central Presents, Prmium Blend, Beat the Geels, and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (also aired worldwide every weekend via CNN).

Family Guy is on Jack TV’s show lineup. Now, American Dad (made by the creators of Family Guy) makes its Asian debut around July (I’m not sure about this). The shows that are on Jack TV’s lineup are The Late Show with David Letterman, My Name is Earl, Everybody Hates Chris, Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Arrested Development, Distraction (the Brit version), Banzai, Street Smarts, Just for Laughs, and The Jackyard (It’s Crazy!).
Ever since the first broadcast of Jack TV on May 2, 2005 (a day after Family Guy was relaunched on FOX), it has been part of our daily lifestyle. Starting August 7, There will be new timeslots for most of Jack TV’s shows. By the end of the year, there will be new content on Jack TV. Kudos to Jack TV for adding more interest to our TV habits, minimal advertising, and being definitely funny for over a year.

This called late by ¾ weeks or so. Now, idecided to post this and it’s better late than never. Up next is the seven part series August No More. Here is the preview of the series: For Part1, “I was going to type somethng irrelevant when I decided to provoke that Zamboangueña whore, her family, her supporters, and her puppet supporters.” “No Cha Cha, No Progress, No way we can indefinitely destroy the commies, abu sayaffs, jemaah islamiyah fanatics & other threats to the Filipinos (except the weather and God), We can assure ourselves a good future.” “The new song “A Public Affair” by Jessica Simpson is way better than that white trash, copycat, has-been, egoistic, sluttysister Ashlee. Smashlee is her nickname because her bandmates & fans call her that.” “As I say it again, F-U-C-K Vince Chong, Alicia Pan & Nikki Gil 951,236,478,694,472,968 damn times over.” For Part 2, “They were right beside her when she died as the potato hits her face directly. Thet never let her die alone. That’s what good friends do.” “You like Miles Davis and John Coltrane, yet ended up in a record label peddling Cueshé. You like Kubrick and Scorsese, yet ending up making ads for the MMDA and the Department of Health” “My fort isn’t waving white flags anymore. This time, its red flags with the words “FIGHT WITH ALL YOU GOT, MFERS” in black.” “He will win this one, even if that ho Lita tries to use some cheap tricks to let her boyfriend, the Rated R Superstar Edge win another defense of the WWE Championship.” And other topics that you could ever think of and this is not for the dull, ordinary guy (unless you want some kickass action in your life).

Addendum for your memory space: I lost at that agricultural competition (involves a quiz, esaay writing contest & an art contest) in LB last August 11. Forget that because I will set my sights at Campus Breakout (after a long, long hiatus), a contest in which you get your brains to scramble in random categories. It will happen anytime in September. Once again, the ftrst anniversary of the first post of The Ian Blog will be celebrated on the entire month of September. Bring out the San Mig Light for 30 days coz we booze a month more before Oktoberfest! Real men DON’T do drugs, WE DRINK BOOZE!

PUBLIC APOLOGY


AFTER WEEKS OF DECISIONS & BRAINSTORMING SESSIONS WITH SOME OF MY ASSOCIATES, I DECIDED TO PUBLISH THIS POST:
ONE OF THE PHILIPPINES’ MOST POPULAR BANDS IS NOW THE MOST ATTACKED AND BASHED DUE TO MO TWISTER.
I DECIDED TO ATTACK THEM PERSONALLY, THEN SLOWLY OPENING IT TO A FULL-SCALE ATTACK ON CUESHÉ ON THE WEB, VERBALLY & WHEN I ATTEND TO THEIR CONCERTS.
DUE TO AN INTERVIEW ON MAGIC 89.9 ON JULY 26, 2006, I MOSTLY GAVE UP PLANS TO DESTROY THE CARRERS OF CUESHÉ’S BANDMEMBERS. ONE OF ITS MEMBERS IS A COUSIN OF MY FRIEND (NAME WILL NOT BE DISCLOSED TO PROTET HIS IDENTITY AND TO PREVENT SCRUTINY FROM HATERS OF HIS COUSIN’S BAND). HE DID NOT PRESSURE ME TO GIVE UP THE HATE. IT IS MY OWN DECISION TO DO THAT. I WAS TRYING TO MAKE AN ATTACK ON CUESHÉ VERBALLY AND PHYSICALLY IN ITS 50 CITY NATION TOUR FROM SEPTEMBER TO DECEMBER, THEN TO THEIR 12 CITY U. S. -CANADA TOUR AFTERWARDS.
AS SAID IN THEIR INTERVIEW, THEY CLAIMED THAT THEIR PR CREW ARE TRYING THEIR BEST TO PROTECT THAT SAID BAND. THEY OUGHT TO BE FIRED AND REPLACED BY MORE CARING PEOPLE WHO WANT TO PROTECT CUESHÉ AND MAKE THEM MORE ACCESSIBLE WITH THEIR FANS. AS FOR CUESHÉ, I GIVE THEM THE GREEN LIGHT TO APOLOGIZE TO PEOPLE WHO FELT INSULTED, SNOBBED AND PISSED OFF BY THEM. MOST ESPECIALLY “TRISH”. EARLY THIS YEAR (JANUARY 2006) WHEN SHE WAS BEING PAMPERED BECAUSE SHE CALLED IN SOME PART IN SOME COMPEITION, SHE CALLED SNOBBED WHEN SHE SAID TO THEM THAT SHE CALLED THEIR NO. 1 FAN. I HOPE SHE’S READY TO FORGIVE THEM.
