Wowowin is a Philippine television variety show broadcast by GMA Network. Hosted by Willie Revillame, it premiered on May 10, 2015 on the network's Sunday Grande sa Hapon line up and worldwide on GMA Pinoy TV.[1] On May 16, 2016, it became a co-production with GMA Entertainment TV and moved to the network's Telebabad line up replacing GMA Blockbusters.

Overview

The program marks the return of Willie Revillame to Philippine television and his return to his original network, GMA Network, where he hosted Lunch Date with his close friend Randy Santiago in the 1980s. Wowowin is produced by Revillame's WBR Entertainment Productions, Inc. serving as a blocktimer on GMA Network, and friend Randy Santiago served as the program's original director. [2] The music video of Wowowin was released online, the theme song was composed by one of Revillame's close friend, Lito Camo, musical arrangement by Albert Tamayo, and directed by Josh Fernandez.[3]

Proving to be a strong contender in its weekend timeslot, Wowowin was granted extended airtime and became a co-production in late 2015 between WBR Entertainment and GMA Network. Another milestone was reached in February 2016, with Wowowin being promoted to GMA Network's Weeknights Primetime block with another airtime extension, serving as the lead-in to the network's flagship national evening newscast, 24 Oras [4]

The show had a 2-week break from May 2 to 13 to give way its studio for GMA News Eleksyon 2016 coverage, as well as vacation for Willie. But before it came back, it has several teasers telling that it will be back with a grand new studio, bigger prizes, and many more. On May 16, 2016, the day it came back, the show introduced a new host, Miss Universe 2013 3rd runner-up, Ariella Arida.

On September 12, 2016, the program opened with a grand production number introducing new songs such as "Zumbahan Na" and "Sige Sige Sumayaw" and new segment Gandang Filipina which started on September 13, 2016.

After the said segment ended on March 2017, Amal Rosaroso, Gandang Filipina's witty, funny and energetic finalist joined the lineup of co-hosts of Wowowin up until July 2017.[5] On April 3, 2017, the show started introducing new songs and brand new segments like 1-2-3 Go, Supot o Datung, The Will To Win, Doo Bi Doo Bi Dap Dap Dance Challenge and Dear Wilfredo.

Five up to ten random audience members get to play Hep, Hep, Hooray. The objective of the game is to repeat the words "Hep Hep" and "Hooray". A co-host puts the microphone in front of a contestant's face and they are supposed to say "Hep Hep" while clapping their hands together below their waist, then another co-host will put the microphone to another contestant's face and they are to finish the cheer with saying "Hooray" and raising their hands in the air.

There are boxes marked with names of different colors (in Filipino names) and the contestant must choose only one. Willie would open all boxes- except for two, and if they would change their mind, they could switch boxes. The contestant would then choose either "Cash" (open the box, get the previous money offer and accept the result, may it be "Bokya". If the Mega Jackpot was inside the box and they chose "Cash", then they would receive the previous money offer and not the Mega Jackpot.), or "Kahon" (the increasing money offer until the box is finally opened, usually accompanied with exciting music.).

The remaining individual contestant who chose the correct answer to the final question automatically receives PHP 10,000 cash prize, jacket and gift packs from sponsors before playing the Patalbugan jackpot round. If all contestants chose the 2 wrong answers, there will be another raffle draw for 3 or 10 studio audiences who wants to play the game for the jackpot prize. There will be no jackpot round if the 2 or 3 remaining individual contestants selected from the another raffle draw if they didn't choose the correct answer to the final question. 1-2-3 Go is a game segment from the former primetime gameshow Willing Willie during the first few months of Willie Revillame as a talent of TV5.
