TV 5 issues 'Willing Willie' suspension

MANILA, Philippines – Despite Willie Revillame's contention on his show on April 8 that they were not being suspended, TV 5–through its News 5 Twitter account and TV 5's website interaksyon.com–eventually announced the suspension of the controversial show “Willing Willie.”
In an official statement posted April 10, 9:32 p.m., TV 5 noted that it “has decided to stop the airing of the 'Willing Willie' show for a period of two weeks starting April 11, 2011.”
“During this period, TV5 will dialogue and work with the MTRCB, KBP, PANA and other stakeholders to come up with appropriate guidelines that will apply to all networks and the entire industry with respect to the participation or use of children in talent, game and reality shows for television. TV5 will also complete the improvement of its internal guidelines and processes to achieve the same end.”
The network also shared that it “will work with Mr. Willie Revillame and WilProductions, Inc. in order to improve the program and ensure that it will continue to bring fun and entertainment to its many loyal viewers” while reiterating “ its commitment to responsible broadcasting and vows to continuously enhance its programs as its way of serving the public and thanking its viewers for their unceasing support, trust and patronage.”
To replace the “Willing Willie” timeslot, TV 5 will air "Primetime Super Sine" and "Magic? Gimik!"
On April 8, Revillame had shared that he’s taking a leave from the show.
“Nakipag-usap ako sa presidente ng TV5, si Atty. Ray Espinosa. Nag-usap po kami na hanggang ngayon na lang po ako dito sa ‘Willing Willie.' Magpapahinga lang po muna ako," Revillame said.
But he stressed that he would use the sabbatical to ponder on the recent events in his career.
"Starting Monday po [April 11] hanggang next week, hanggang Holy Week, pag-iisipan ko po muna nang mabuti kung ako po ay magbabalik pa sa industriyang ito."
"Bigyan n'yo na lang po muna ako ng pagkakataon at sa sarili ko, pag-iisipan ko po ito. Masyado po akong binintangan. Maraming nagbintang sa akin nang wala po akong ginagawang masama,” he explained.
The show suffered immeasurable setback after the controversial Jan-Jan "macho dance" on March 12. Some sponsors of the show like Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Cebuana Lhuillier and Mang Inasal temporarily suspended their ad placements on the show.
The MTRCB is also conducting an investigation on the network’s liability after Jan-Jan’s controversial performance.

Sa mga taong hindi umaayon sa sanction ni Willie: siguro wala kayong mga anak, at kung meron man, sorry pero hindi nyo mahal ang mga anak niyo. Entertainment ba kanyo? Kayo ba, kung wala na kayong mga pera, isasabak niyo ang mga anak niyo sa ganito? Kung edukado kayo, malamang...hindi. Kung kayo naman ay ang may kakayahan tumulong, tumulong kayo sa tamang paraan! Hindi yung pasasayawin niyo ang mga batang ganito para sa pera lang? Bakit nakalusot ang ganito sa audition? Wala bang dignidad ang mga committee nito? Dahil lang ba sa sariling desisyon ng mga magulang nitong bata na gawin ito eh wala na tayong responsibilidad na ituwid ito at sa tamang oras??? Alam niyo bayan, sa hirap ng panahon, ang dami nang taong sumasali sa mga ganitong palabas kahit magmukha silang tanga. Matagal na nangyayari ito, hindi lang kay Willie kundi sa lahat ng noontime show. Kahit noong panahon pa ng Student Canteen. Sana matuto na tayo dito, na hindi porque gusto ng marami (i'm talking about the mob), ay aayon na tayo. Buong mundo ang nakakakita nito at nakakahiya. Kung proud ka maging Pinoy sa ganito, I'm sorry, pero ako HINDI!!!
Karapat dapat lang ang suspidihin ang mga ganitong palabas, sa lahat ng channel. Bigyan naman natin ng dignidad ang mga kababayan natin, lalo na ang "hindi nakakaintindi." Huwag na sana natin abusohin ang mga bagay na ito at tawaging "entertainment". Manalig tayo sa Diyos, huwag sa pera! Kristiyano ka man o muslim, dapat gumawa ka ng mga bagay na makakapuri sa Diyos. Salamat po :)

I have watched Willie since Wow Wow Wee, so to the haters, WINNING! Take Willie out please, that channel could be put to use with movies and comedies. How can any of you Willie lovers justify blocking the channel during prime time hours, at least 4 hours this show runs on a clear channel seen throughout the Philippines. The money Willie throws out to the poor is nothing, it's nothing, and how long does 5,000 peso's last you? God get some dignity and get some pride in yourself, your worth more than a Scooby snack. I was for Willie but now after that lush takes up 4 hours of prime time TV, I could care less for him, his dancers will make it, they are very, very beautiful regardless of how many sob stories you see on how they became celebrities, they will be just fine, better off than you or me. No my wife is not fat, but she does not want me to view sleazy dancers, she calls them something else and I think her words best fit them, I used to see these same girls dancing in Subic and you know what, these same girls in Subic, they are all married and have allot of money, so good on them, but they don't belong on TV in front of young kids, your kids, get a clue people! And when you do clue me in.
how many more times ka jan.....tingnan mo nga yung mas masahol pang abuso ang nagyayari sa tabi tabi lamang?......kayo ang nagpapalaki nyan.....naging abuso, dahil sa tao....sobrang marumi ang mga isip.....
willie pa rin!!!!!!!!!!
tama....
we people in uk support willie..we strongly believe that he will come back!!! do it very soon please...to his detractors: get some education,find something nice to do instead of posting silly comments coz you can never bring willie down!!!
to metro:
you go to hell first and join your brother lucifer!!!!
Ano ba yan Pilipinas? Kahit saang anggulo tingnan hindi ko masabing child abuse yun and yet I work in a mental health facility for youth. Bakit di nila kasuhan ng child abuse ang mga magulang if they really think it was an abuse of some sort. Dapat sigurong tingnan ng mga bumabatikos sa show eh kung paano sila makakatulong sa mga taong naghihirap sa Pilipinas imbes na naghihirap sila para mapaalis ung tao na nakakatulong sa mga mahihirap. This is exactly the reason why I don't want to go back to the Philippines...crab mentality. It is also the reason why Philippines is not forwarding unlike other Asian countries. Magbago na kayo!!! Puro positive na lang dapat! Hindi ako avid fan ni Willie Revillame, in fact napanood ko lang sya from Wowowee and loved it! Nung napalitan sya don obvious na they we're trying very hard to get to his standard but without luck. Ngayong nagkameron ng Willing Willie, sabi ko wow another highly anticipated show..and then this! This is the only show that I watch when I'm stress or when I want to take my mind off work, give me a break you guys! And to TV 5, kung mag-pull out man ung ibang advertisers, I'm sure there's plenty more to support Willing Willie! There, I rest my case!
tama ka lahat sa sinabi mo...."nakakagigil na ang mga yan. gggrrrrrr" sa halip na ang mga tao e me libangan sa hapon at gabi pagkagaling sa trabaho at nakakain na ng hapunan, uupo na sa harap ng telebisyon at manunuod na ng Balita sa Channel 5 at pagkatapos e willing willie naman:... channel 5 ang balita---- kasi di na nakakatuwang manuod sa EBEES SEBEEN na yan ng kahit anung programa, masyado sila.... ang nangyayari tuloy e nalabas na lamang ng bahay sa gabi ang mga tao, kesa manuod ng iba, dahil nawala nga ang willing willie....
KUNG HINDI GA NAMAN SA MGA TAONG TUTUU NAMANG NAGBABAYABAYANIHAN na mga igggitero at inggitera dahil naungusan sila.:na ito ay isa sa nakamamatay na kasalanan sa Diyos ...ang maiingit sa kapwa........talagang gagawain ang lahat mapabagsak lamang ang isang tao na gumagawa ng magaling.......yun namang mga pinuno ng mga ahensya ng gobyerno namga kamag anak o kasamahan ng mga tao sa kabilang istasyon e hanap nga maigi ng butas para lamang lumagpak ang isang tao...
nakaw.......magbago na tayo......hindi natutuwa diyan ang DIYOS sa mga asal na iyan... matakot sa Panginoong Diyos......
Saang anggulo ka ba naktingin para hindi mo makita ang obvious na Child Abuse disguise as an entertainment? Crab mentality? The show patronizes people who goes for easy money and forgo to work for pay. There are better things to do improve our lives instead of spending days and days standing in line and wishing your self luck of getting a few thousand if you tell the world how miserable your life is. What's Willy Revillame's track record as a host? is he an honest person? remember the 0 & 2 switcherro in Wowowee? How about the ultra stampede? He has blood in his hands and yet he let his good lawyers take care of it so that he'll have a "CLEAR CONSCIENCE"! by the way, hindi na natutulungan ni Willie ang mag tao na magkaroon ng magandang buhay, tinutulungan nya ang tao na maging tamad at umasa sa swerte instead of working hard!
whatever ..........basta willie pa din.........we missed the show....
willie come back please
i will still support willie no matter what you throw on him!!!
te hell with you kabron,metro,raysan and everyone who are negative about willie..you better watch the show and see for yourself if there was anything wrong with it..you are all moron.,,people here in uk are very angry at you all who are so malicious!!!

@mauwee hobbel and everyone who are against willie:
If you have nothing good to say,better shut your big mouth and find some job to do..you need some education!! what exploitation are u talking about? that boy was only showing his talent and skills to dance!! he was properly dressed,so we viewers saw nothing wrong with the way he danced..he wasn't forced to dance,it was his choice to dance like that!!you people who are negative have so much malice in your polluted minds that u reacted so negatively......it was just merely for fun,nothing else! kayo ang may malisya!!
Who exploited the child? YOU WHO ARE ALL MORON! BECAUSE U HAVE TALKED NEGATIVE ABOUT IT WHEN IN FACT THE VIEWERS DID NOT EVEN THINK THERE WAS MALICE IN IT..
WE PEOPLE HERE IN UK ARE VERY ANGRY WITH U ALL FOR CONDEMNING MR.REVILLAME AND HIS TEAM FOR THIS NON SENSE ACCUSATION!!!
THE PHILIPPINES HAVE SO MUCH SERIOUS PROBLEMS THAT NEED TO BE LOOKED AT ,NOT THIS NONSENSE ISSUE BECAUSE FOR US WHO SAW THE PROGRAM FROM THE START,WE DID NOT THINK OF ANY MALICE IN IT..
WE ARE ANGRY BECAUSE YOU PEOPLE HAVE CAUSED THE SHOW TO BE AXED FROM T.V AND WE CANT WATCH ANYMORE!! IT IS THE ONLY SHOW THAT GIVES US JOY HERE,IT TAKES AWAY EVERY BIT OF STRESS AND TIREDNESS THAT WE GET FROM WORKING ALL DAY
yOU SHOULD ALL GO TO HELL!!!!"
your right big man
ikaw mauna sa hell...di marunong mag-isip..ahaha
ang talino mo lalo mag isip...
I think it would be better if Willie and his show be suspended for good to teach them a lesson. Yes it might be jan jan's free will to show his talent with the parents blessings. But as a tv host, Willie should also look after the moral and dignity of his contestants. An innocent 6 yr old boy was being exploited just to bring fun to the audience in exchange for 10K? Willie have gone too far and this time don't let him get away with this again. Final word...to hell with the parents of jan jan to use their son for their own interest. I can't believe that a father would want his son to become a macho dancer someday...not unless the father is a GAY !
Kabron I am with you on this, the parents just sat there and did nothing. Really I feel this is not a kids show, but kids watch this garbage, come on is it normal to have your kids watch women dance almost naked, what a learning experience, why then do you send children to school if they just think about sex and party, save your money and buy another long neck, the kids will grow up driving a tricycle and get pregnant. Wow and the big life changing money Willie gives out, "Give me a break". Free up this channel to movies and let’s get back to normal TV and not roughly 4 hours of wasted Television.
te hell with you kabron! better watch the show before you post your silly comments
yes to your words.....
Willie will be back. Super kapal ang mukha niya. So, sa ayaw sa kanya,huwag na lang manood. Wala kaming TV 5 dito, so hindi ko na siya nakikita. Nababalitaan ko na lang na wala pa rin siyang ipinagbago. Mas mayabang pa yata.Kahit si John Estrada ay hindi pinatawad.
so therefore you like john,,,,,,,,,, bading ka hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Magsama na lang sila ni KASAFI! sa LIBYA!
Kung sinuman ang kumpkampi kay Wili ay isa rin siyang alagad ni SATANAS... manloloko at mangagamit..
To those who sympathize Mr. Revillame have pity on yourself. Your promoting demoralization to our Filipino values. This circumstances should be not be taken for granted but given appropriate punishment. It does not mean that he is good because he offers prizes. His popularity does not promote our humankind. He should be extinguished immediately.
@JONX,BEFORE YOU GIVE YOUR COMMENT,YOU BETTER WATCH THE PROGRAM AND SEE FOR YOURSELF IF THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE BOY DANCING!! YOUR MIND IS FULL OF MALICE!! ARE YOU ONE OF ABS CBN TALENT?GO BACK TO WHERE U BELONG AND SHUT YOUR BIG SMELLY MOUTH.!!!MORON!!!
This show is really liked mainly by the very poor only, I think anyone with at least a high school diploma see's that this show is over the top with almost naked women dancing sleazy and the enjoyment and the taunting and odd remarks by Willie. I think to pay all those dancer's and the whole production crew is a very expensive task, not to mention the money given out on a daily basis, this may be the real reason why everyone in the industry is tried of paying for this show. The show is way to long and it occupies a channel that can be seen clearly by just about anyone in Manila and the surrounding area's. How about some comedy shows with the midgets and gays ect.., miss those, there are to many people like Willey here and to be frank I am tired of him and my wife hates the sexy dancers, and I like watching the sexy dancers only, Willie makes me gag and the poor folk cry crocodile tears.
I assume you're not from Philippines by the way you commented. Put your shoes in those people's shoes before you make such comment. Also, when you said your wife hated the sexy dancers....I assume she's one big gal otherwise she wouldn't care....hehehehe! Anyway, to each his own!
willie,
lakas lang ng loob yan, huwag kang bibitiw, pag kumalas ka talo ka.. pabayaan mo na lang ang mga taong naninira sa iyo lalo na politiko. mas mabaho sila sa iyo. kumagamit sila ng lahat ng himala para maisulong ang personal nilang pangangailangan. may TV 5 naman na tutulong sa iyo at masa na nagmamahal sa iyo. nariyan pa si sen villar na matuwid ang hangarin, hindi plastic at hindi politiko ang gusto lang nya makatulong sa mahihirap kahit ibigay nya ang personal na pera nya. ang iba dyan galing sa kaban ng bayan. MAS NAKAKAHIYA SILA. iba ang pananaw ng laki sa kalsada at laki sa loob ng bahay lalo na ang burgis, mahihirapang makaintindi. pero sa masa madali lang. hindi natin kailangan ang mga elite pasayahin. may kanila silang mundo. walang perpektong tao kundi si @ PERFECTO. sige lang, mag bakasyon ka mula.. naghihintay kami dito sa amerika ng TV 5 willing willie. ang hirap sa internet. se yah next.. mandirigma
sana pumonta d2 sa canada ang willing willie
lahat nang naiingit sa iyo willie ay may bad karma sila sa huli
lahat nang naiingit kay willie sila ang masama ang ugali. basta
.suportahan kita kuya willie we love willing willie
sana bumalik ang willing willie.lahat nang may galit kay willie ay ingit lang silang lahat.at kahit anong sabihin ninyo kay willie kami kampi sa kanya at lahat nang naninira kay willi baka bumalik sa inyong lahat ang karma.
Im sure babalik yan si Willie.. Kz kawalan ng TV5 pg nawala si Willie. Alam ntin n mrming endorsement si Willie. Saka kung gusto tumulong ni Willie sana wag ng i-broadcast.
Maxdo ng mrming issue si willie sa pgging bad image nya.. Sana nmn mgbago n xa.
Willie don't give up! talagang ganyan lahat ay may trial sa buhay but
remember! a lots of people like your show very much so, sana wag kang bibitiw. kung madaming ayaw sa show mo pero marami ding like ang Willing Willie at isa na kami dito sa Canada.
Say ni Willie: "Bigyan n'yo na lang po muna ako ng pagkakataon at sa sarili ko, pag-iisipan ko po ito. Masyado po akong binintangan. Maraming nagbintang sa akin nang WALA po akong ginagawang masama,”
Say namin: " sabi mo wala. Wala. Pero meron, MERON!!!!"
