ABS-CBN’s official statement over Wowowee controversy
“There was no cheating in the August 20 episode of ‘Wilyonaryo’, the new game portion in Wowowee.
“There are two parts in ‘Wilyonaryo’, the elimination and the final rounds. In the elimination round, the contestant won P37,000. In the final round, the contestant agreed to get the one hundred thousand pesos (P100,000) offered by Willie. This brought the contestant’s total winnings to one hundred thirty seven thousand pesos (P137,000).
“The revelation of where the P2 million jackpot prize is happened after the contestant decided to get Willie’s offer. Since ‘Wilyonaryo’ is a new game, a mechanical glitch occurred in the reveal portion.
“Wowowee assures all its supporters that all games and contests in the program are executed with transparency, fairness, and honesty.
“Wowowee will continue to give cheer, help, and fulfillment of the dreams of millions of viewers around the world.”

with assumptions runnin through my mind…
the majority of people that ranted and whined about abs and wowowee being cheaters; reside in the philippines.
wowowee is making it big, whether or not you like it.
as for eat bulaga.. well.. try harder. try airing international and maybe you’ll shine as bright.
im annoyed with people bitching and whining. its not new in the entertainment business to have these kind of controversies.
and.. it wouldn’t be fun to poke at rival studios.. cmon’ its for the money.

i believe that really, there was a mechanical error or glitch with the episode… Since in the game, there are 12 wheels and each wheel contains 0 as it’s base… i believe that only the 4 jackpot prizes are placed on top of these zeroes so that everyday, it would not be hard for them to shuffle all of these prizes… and with the situation, i have observed that Willie pulled the film along with the second layer which was the 2 MILLION… For instance, this revealed the last layer which was zero… ABS-CBN’s only mistake was that they chose to do it this way… i mean, it was just that they chose to place all zeroes at the base layer… they didn’t think of what could possibly happen if the 2nd layer would also be pulled….
THERE IS NO SCAM IN THE EPISODE! I ASSURE YOU….
It was a mechanical glitch that happened… Anyway, GOD knows…
So Eat Bulaga, I believe you should just keep on improving your show… improve it till perfection… don’t waste your time on making side-comments about other people’s business…. Don’t meddle with things you don’t know… and regarding your comment of the “Bakit?! Bakit?! Bakit?!”… I believe you should answer that… “Bakit ka ba nakikialam sa show ng iba kung mron ka ding show na pinaaandar?!” diba? I mean, wla nmang issue kung wlang gagawa… and likewise, walang issue kung wla kang sidecomments…
GUYZ, sit back and relax…. I am not a Wowowee fanatic nor of Eat Bulaga… I just felt bad about what happened and I believe that nothing was wrong…
Wowowee Fans, keep on holding…
Eat Bulaga Fans, Good Luck!…

hay naku.. karmahin pa sana lalo ang ABS at si Willie dahil sa maling pagtatanggol sa maling gawa nila… mali na nga yung ginawa, pinagtatakpan pa ng isang kamalian hindi valid ang official statement nila.. paanong magkakaroon ng problem sa segment na iyon kung ang bawat wheel ay may isang number lang? .. at sa sinabing statement ng ABS, parang sinabi na nila hindi lahat ng wheel e isa lang ang number (it’s the only reason to have that problem, kasi nga , hahatakin mo lang naman kung anong number ang nasa loob).

ito ba talaga yung official statement nung abs? seryoso kayo?! OMG!! grammar na grammar pa lang sira-sira na.
sabi nila, they aim for transparency, eh bakit ‘di nila ma-explain nang mabuti kung bakit dalawa yung numbers dun sa violet wheel na yun? mga engot! simpleng simple lang ang tinatanong, ‘di niyo pa masagot. mas pinili niyo pang mandamay ng ibang tao,

Lam nyo kahit anong savhin mali pa rin ang ginawa ni Willie na magsalita sa camera ng ganong personal na bagay..halatang halata namn na nililihis at nililito lng nya ang paniniwala ng mga tao.parehas lng silang host ni joey de leon at parehas lng silang nagtitirahan…kung professional kng tao hindi mo na kailangan gamitin ang show mo para mapasama mo lng ung isang tao db?neutral din ako sa palabas ng GMA7 at ABS CBN.pero kung titingnan nyo kung sino ung totoo ang sinasabi at hindi plastic.Sa ABS CBN marami lng silang pera kay maimpluwensya pero nagagawa pa rin nilang mandaya…kaya YANG SI WILLIE KAYA INIWAN NG ASAWA KC MY MASAMANG UGALI TLAGA YAN..

pareho naman silang bastos. c joe ung mga patutsada nya may sense pag napikon ka talo ka kilala na sya sa gnon dpat nga matutunan nya na wag na nga magpasaring kase marami ang pikon. si willie bastusan talaga harap harapan. kaya walang tumatagal na host sa wowowee nag rereklamo sya na mahirap mag host magisa? tanga ka ba willie bakit ba walang CO_HOST na tumatagal sau?? e di ba pag nasasapawan ka pinapatanggal mo sila? Kung nagexplain ka agad willie wala sana ganito. Sa totoo lng lahat ng tao yan ang pinaguusapan nakakatawa nga kanya knya silang kuro kuro. Sa abs tanggalin nyo na lng ung portion na un tapos ang issue!!!
