Going Bananas Becomes Banana Split: Old Time Comedians Traded In For Sexy All-female-gag Show




Have you heard of the newest gag show to launch on ABS-CBN? It's going to be entitled "Banana Split" in honor of the very old very popular comedy series "Going Bananas."

The popular sitcom in the 90’s starred Edgar Mortiz, Johnny Delgado, Al Tantay, Christopher de Leon, and the late Jay Ilagan. That was a very old series that had an all male cast and it was ridiculously funny.


This time though ABS-CBN is trading in those funny oldies for an all-female gag show. This show will be headlined by lead stars
  • Anne Curtis
  • Kristine Hermosa
  • Angelica Panganiban
  • Cristine Reyes
  • Bangs Garcia
  • Roxanne Guinoo
  • Valerie Concepcion
Just for the fun of it look at Angelica Panganiban and Anne Curtis they have practically the same pose. tsk tsk... lacking originality photographers these days....

Fellow gorgeous and talented celebrities who will also be joining the Banana Split crew (the younger group)
  • RR Enriquez
  • KoolChx
  • Princess Ryan
  • Dianne Medina
  • AJ Perez
  • Lauren Young
  • Riza Santos.

To complement them will be guest hunks like Zanjoe Marudo, Diether Ocampo, John Lloyd Cruz and Jake Cuenca. That should be a nice combination, hope it won't get to rowdy (sexual rowdy I mean)

I think ABS-CBN is trying to echo the "Bubble Gang" theme of GMA - which was I admit very good with Ara Mina and Maureen Larazabal with the big boobs, also there was one with Ruffa Mae Quinto - not sure if it was the same show though but that was pretty hilarious too. I used to watch that series when I still had a life of my own

Anyway, I wouldn't know if those girls from ABS-CBN will be funny enough to take on "Bubble Gang" or do justice to "Going Bananas" but if they're going to show some skin, then I think it might be worth watching for a bit.

Would be worth it to see Kristine Hermosa again, she looks old compared to her younger and yummier counterparts but she's still not bad looking. This is from one of her pictures on Uno magazine (August 2008)
