Today was the first airing of the Pilipinas Got Talent and I was quite entertained with the talents shown by the competitive contestants of the said show. As defined by wikipedia.com Pilipinas Got Talent is a Philippine talent show, which will be shown on ABS-CBN starting February 20, 2010 (today). It is based on the Got Talent franchise, a British TV format conceived and owned by Simon Cowell's SYCO company. "Pilipinas" is the Filipino word for Philippines.
ABS-CBN acquired Got Talent franchise, advertising it as "the first and only nationwide talent reality show in the Philippines," although other talent shows from other networks are currently airing with a similar format, such as Talentadong Pinoy on TV5.
Viewers are able to join through text and online registration via Internet. Auditions are held in key cities such as Manila, Cebu and Davao. Unlike Talentadong Pinoy, viewers will vote the contestants and whoever gets the highest votes, will win. In Talentadong Pinoy, there are the jury, which will decide who will win.
The Talents of Filipinos were trully simply exceptional because of its uniqueness and outstanding qualities. Though the show is aired during saturday and sunday at 8:30 pm only, It will surely gain massive ratings judging from what I've seen on its first airing. Here are some sample videos...
