im worried to the poor filipino because of wowowee

Hi westhernanimus! I am from the Philippines and I am aware of how our countrymen tries to line up to get inside those studios and somehow join contests and win a couple of hundreds or thousands or even a million. Some borrow money for fare in going to Manila but these game shows no matter what may some people think that it has some negative effects, let us see the good points in them. Most of the Filipinos are poor and they will go to where they could find hope to alleviate their life may it be game shows or what. But if it could help them somehow, why not? Well, these are just my thoughts dear. Take care and have a nice day!

The war of the two TV stations is somewhat disgusting. There are other networks you can choose from, but because of their war they become more controversial and they just the two networks usually watched by Filipinos. Game shows must be truthful to their games and participants of the games and their audience are watching closely for their errors and they better be careful and truthful to the people. I wish they learned from the errors they made.

I think the two shows does help our poor people. It somehow help them and we cannot blame this people who want to win. Yeah, I believe that relying on lucks to find money is also wrong. I hope it will also serve an eye opener to the government how many people in our country nowadays are poor and needs too much attention. But honestly I salute this kind of shows for their dedication to help everyday. We already know that there are now many poor people who won money and atleast their lives are being changed.

Really it is true. "Network Wars"? These stations battle for fame, they want to on top of the other. They do all means to be the no.1. So what? They are so disgusting and so is the government. The government is willing to give billions of money for the military. They are so dumb putting all the money into the military and almost nothing for education and health programs for the people. They aim for too much power... .

I'm from philippines too,i love watching wowowee as what others do too.For me wowowe really helps a lot of filipino's speacially to those poor filipino.Wowowee is giving a chance to those people who needs help,by participating there games.And even though,its hard to full in line out side the studio jst to join there contest,but its worth it.Really wowowee helps a lot of filipino people and wowowee too is giving happiness for those who are watching there shows.thank you whesternanimus.

Wowowee is a business, and the bottomline for ABS-CBN is that they're earning. Whatever social consequences are brought about by the show, the point is that they're making money out of it. It's just sad that most people watching the show - the ones sacrificing working hours and extra money, in particular - are drawn in because of the idea of "quick money," thinking that such a small boost to their finances would save their tails from poverty. That's just not the right solution. Not even their pang-negosyo packages are going to give these people the right livelihood; there's no way a person's going to learn how to fish just by giving him a fishing rod. Still, I'm not against Wowowee and how it reinforces the kind of mentality I just described. I already said the bottomline here is that Wowowee is a business, and there's nothing stopping Wowowee from legally taking advantage of how the average Filipino thinks.

I am one of those millions of poor Filipinos. For me, they're just for entertainment. Besides, without us these shows will never prosper! ;)
