The rebirth of Battle of the Brainless...in a musical kind of way

Last night's Lokomoko U brings back our ever favorite Tropang Trumpo portion called Battle of the Brainless (remember this?). With the UP Jazz Ensemble performing the musical number, Valeen Montenegro hosts this ever favorite brainless quiz show that brings back our Tropang Trumpo memories.

Wrong answers makes me ROFL a hundred times, since this is Battle of the Brainless The Musical! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! ROFL! (over and over)

Then, massage gags, another tear-dropping chapter of Bahaw Ikalawang Hain (what's going on with Blue, played by Empoy?), another Star Factory segment on how to make foot-long hotdog sandwich, and more of Granny's knock knock jokes on Talentadong Family,

And oh, we also forgot that another mice and rats chatter on another episode of Keso City.

Cheche Bureche yet again...

Last night's Bubble Gang episode showing gags about their katulongs leaving, a cooking show, a katulong's case on the house, best actor, a sign language on the news takes on a new dimension, a clean conscience at the nightclub, spirit of the glass gone awkward, more of Moymoy Palaboy and Roadfill, a retired genie, and a tagakilos for hire.

Also, our newest favorites Cheche and Bureche, are here again, for the third time, in Cheche Bureche! For the third time, our lovable Cheche's watching cartoons, then the grumpy Bureche showed up and she wants to watch some action. Then the father showed up with two gifts, big and small. Cheche chose the big one, then Bureche chose the big one. While the father's away, Cheche and Bureche swapped gifts, then the father showed up, saying why did they swapped gifts. He's proud of Cheche because this small gift is better. Cheche opened the small gift, and she got a cellphone! Then, Bureche opened a big gift, and it's a hat inside! Better luck next time, Bureche!

Impostor ended...and Momay ended too!

Impostor ending and Momay ending

OH MY! Two dramas in ABS-CBN shared the same day when it ends! 

First its Impostor, part of the Precious Hearts Romances, starring Sam Milby and Maja Salvador. You know, its Melai in Maja's identity, ooooverrr!! That ending was tragic at its first minute (with part having the villain, played by Precious Lara Quigman, killed the real Mariz, played by Maja Salvador) and in the end, Melai, the former Devon that Maja Salvador also plays that role, makes a special comeback at the end of Impostor.

With the Impostor ending is OOOOVERRR, time to say OH MY at the final episode of Momay.

How it end? Rewind it at the first minute. We first see a espiritista, one of Aunt Hillary's, played by Ogie Diaz, stop by at the espiritista who captured Momay, telling this is the time. Meanwhile, Alyssa tries to persuade that her father was responsible for the arson of Shirley's house, the house where Momay and Justin resides. In fact, the person responsible for the crime told the truth!

Then, Justin and Momay trying to rescue their mother, Shirley, but its too late. Outside the currently burning Fun Land, with Shirley been taken to the hospital, Aunt Hillary showed up, trying to kill Justin, but Uncle took the shot. With Justin's uncle shot by Aunt Hillary, she was about to kill Justin, but the cops took her out. With that nasty aunt died, her soul was been taken by some "giant hand" and her soul, I'm sure, was taken to hell, you know, at the fire! OH MY!

At the hospital, the siblings tried to do everything to keep their mother, Shirley, alive, but it was time's up for Momay. Her "Flower of Life" was withered, and Momay was slowly disappeared. 

Moments later, at the house where Justin and Momay resides, Justin and his mother, Shirley, reminded that our friendly ghost was the only one who saved their lives, but forgot to say goodbye. Later, we heard the word "choo-choo!" It's Momay playing with her best pal, Andrew. Of course, she has to say good-bye first to her best friend, her brother Justin, and her mother Shirley. (I'm crying....)

Both dramas shared the same day when it ends! OH MY! OOOOVERRR!!!

Next week, Precious Hearts Romances will present Alyna, which stars Shaina Magdayao, and for three years, our favorite alien buddy, Kokey, is back, with the funniest tandems, Vhong Navarro and Toni Gonzaga, Melai Cantiveros and Jason Francisco, come full force with some oooveerrr laughs, tears, suspense, and more YAKAPAMILYA on Kokey@Ako!

Hope I"ll catch up with these new additions! Like we said, with great endings come great beginnings.

Tongue Tarang Tongue - The next-generation of Brod Bro Bru

We all going to miss the classic Banana Split portion called Brod, Bro, Bru (in original, level up, props edition, Brod Bro Bruce Lee, celebrity edition, to Brod Bro Bruken).

Since our Philippine summer vacation, ABS-CBN's Banana Split introduces a new kind of Brod, Bro, Bru:

It's called Tongue Tarang Tongue

Why Tongue Tarang Tongue? It's simple. First the Pinoy (first Zanjoe, then John Prats, now Ryan) will say a very Pinoy sentence. Then the Pinoy sentence gets revised Italian-style (Jayson Gainza) or for the funniest, Japanese-style (Pooh).

For instance:

See what I mean? It seems that Tongue Tarang Tongue on Banana Split is the next generation of Brod Bro Bru. Say a Pinoy sentence, then when Italian, LOL. And say a Pinoy sentence, then when Japanese, ROFL!

Paalam! Arrivederci! Sayonara!

Reversible shirt-ing around and Melai's tips to outrun the MMDA officer

Back in May 2010, during the Bubble Gang Summer Special, a Haka-haka portion showing the myth about the reversible shirt that once dressed backwards will he find a way back?

The result, "KALOKOHAN", it felt like he was beaten up.

Now, yesterday, on Banana Split Daily Servings, the reversible shirt joke goes like this...

While the woman is asleep, we saw a man dressed backwards approaching in. The woman wake up and yelled him "saan ka naman galing?!" He will ask why but FREEZE! John Prats' version of Justin Bieber, Dyaskeng Bieber, is here! The best reason? "He got lost, so he wears his shirt backwards and he went home."

Also on Daily Servings yesterday,

Melai Cantiveros' tips to bypass MMDA officers on M3: Melai Mo Magwork

5. Use the classic "Uy! Si (insert famous artist's name)!" trick

4. Pretend that your family is a high-ranking official higher than MMDA. I.E., the President of the Philippines, and blackmail the MMDA officer for doing that.

3. Scare the MMDA officer with a fake BOMB!

2. Pretend you have a contagious disease.

and number 1: Use the line "Hindi mo ba 'ko kilala?!" ("You don't know me?!")

You'll thank Melai for her uber-tips that sounds weird but M3 (Melai Mo Magwork).

Halo Reach

Halo Reach

Welcome to the prequel of the world's best XBOX game that made a sensation among XBOX players thanks to its futuristic effects, immense storyline, and everything for Halo nerds like you.

Halo Reach foretells the story that started the battle beyond Covenant and Earth, as the legendary Noble Team, a group of highly-experienced Spartan soldiers. You'll play the role of the newest member, Noble Six.

This game is truly where heroes and legends were made to fight thanks to its intensive mission, intense enemy AI, host of new weapons, and multiplayer co-op gameplay that allows you and players from across the world to experience Reach to the world best.

As I said multiplayer co-ops, there are more multiplayer gameplay offered for the heroes and legends within. Your rules, your battles, your games, your destiny. The multiplayer gameplay shows everyone who is noble enough to call himself/herself a legend. That is, someone worthy enough to say "I am legend" in his/her own rights.

HOW WAS IT?

Sir/ma'am, this game will surely rock everyone if you are done playing with Halo 3:ODST. Since Reach is the first, and last, of the ever-legendary Halo series, everyone will grab a copy and play it to enjoy the world best experience that is surely to the world best, especially newcomers to the Halo series. This game will be much cooler than your average halo-halo served at your nearby table.

LIMITED EDITION: In limited availability, Halo nerds will experience Reach in two special edition flavors; the limited edition comes with the Halo Reach game, armor set used for multiplayer battles, and Dr. Hasley's documents that changed the Halo story forever, all bundled in a recovered ONI black box. The legendary edition, on the other hand, not only bundles everything from the limited edition, but also the Noble Team statue courtesy of McFarlane Toys, plus a flaming helmet feature for multiplayer battles! Better hurry up sir/ma'am and get those because these were at a limited availability.

Since we're in a -Ber month (September to December), Halo Reach is the perfect early Christmas gift for all. Imagine someone's going Monito Monita and if you're lucky, you're getting your own copy of Halo Reach as a gift from someone...

A not so major major ending...

Recently, on September 14, 2010, with Japanese otakus flipping their HD TV remotes to Tokyo Broadcasting System, the second season of K-On! (K-On!!) ended in a not so major major way.

Screenshots from the final episode:

http://www.tbs.co.jp/anime/k-on/story/story224.html

With the second season's twenty-four episodes of existence, I can say that there is nothing major major excitement shown on this season because this season seems to be OK for them, with the upcoming character CDs (Character CD 2nd series), and the full album coming this October.

And by saying major major, it seems most Filipinos are enjoying that word spoken by Maria Venus Raj, 4th runner-up in Ms. Universe.

THANK YOU! THANKS FOR K-ON!! SEE YOU SOON!

With the second season recently ended, you can still enjoy some goodies left such as K-On!! Character Image CD Series. With Yui and Mio coming this September 21, expect the Azu-nyan, Tsumugi, and Ritsu character CDs coming this November.

Two opening songs (Go! Go! Maniac and Utauyo Miracle) and two closing songs (Listen and No, Thank You!) are still on sale, although the limited editions (shown below) are running out fast.

As for that, how about some insert songs from the second season which includes Pure Pure Heart by Hokago Tea Time, Gohan Wa Okazu/U&I by Hokago Tea Time, and Love by Death Devil.
