History

Party Pilipinas is an "all-party and all-positive vibes" show, according to the Corporate Communications Department of GMA Network and the show's new production manager, Ruth Mariñas. Mariñas takes over the post of Ramel David, who in turn replaced Hazel Abonita.[6] Through an interview via Chika Minute in 24 Oras, Ogie Alcasid stated that Party Pilipinas will circle the entire country and hopefully the whole world.[6] The show premiered on March 28, 2010 replacing the defunct SOP Fully Charged, a former Sunday afternoon party of the same timeslot.[1][7] After 13 years of airing, the former show bid goodbye due to low ratings against the rival show in ABS-CBN, ASAP.[8][9] Teasers started to come out on commercial with the slogan, "The grandest and hippest party in Philippine television has finally landed on GMA - Party Pilipinas!" [10]

The four main hosts of SOP Regine Velasquez, Ogie Alcasid, Janno Gibbs, and Jaya are retained, along with the R&B Royalties Kyla and Jay-R, plus, La Diva.[6][10] In addition, former ASAP performers Rachelle Ann Go and Mark Bautista, both Viva artists also joined the show.[11][12]

Louie Ignacio left the show after the April 25 episode, due to unknown reason[13] It was temporarily directed by Rommel Gacho from May 2 to the May 23 episode. Soon after, two directors replaced Ignacio, namely Mark A. Reyes and Rico Gutierrez.[14]

On June 20, the program created a history in Philippine TV history as it became the first show to air in 3D.[15][16][17]

The show also became witness to some of engagements in the Philippines' show business. Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez announced their wedding engagement on August 8, 2010 episode.[18] Velasquez also had her pre-nuptial message and confirmation of pregnancy in the show.[19][20] PBA player Rich Alvarez and R&B Princess Kyla made known their wedding engagement also in the show during the February 13, 2011 episode.[21][22] On October 28, 2012, the couple announced that they are expecting their first baby on the show. In addition, Jolina Magdangal and Mark Escueta revealed to the public that they are engaged on June 6, 2011 episode.[23]

On April 17 to May 15, 2011, GB Sampedro alongside Mark A. Reyes headed the show. Sampedro replaced Gutierrez because the latter had resigned from co-directing the show. On July 24, 2011 Treb Monteras replaced Sampedro from directing the show.[28]

He reunited with his co-former ASAP co-hosts and performers Rachelle Ann Go, also his former girlfriend, and Mark Bautista, a good friend of his.[38][39]
