Don't Tell My Mother in Manila!

My favorite show on the National Geographic Channel "Don't Tell My Mother" featured Manila on last night's episode! The first episode (The show airs two new episodes from 9 to 10pm) was Tokyo so I jokingly said to my brother (the original fan of this show who influenced me) that I have a feeling Manila is the next feature but to my surprise I was actually right! The episode started not in Manila though since as the director/host Diego Buñuel said they arrived in Manila in the middle of Holy Week and the city was deserted but of course I think they really planned to come here on that time so they could cover the Holy Week traditions and practices in Pampanga. After that they went back to Manila to feature the "padyak" (makeshift train trolley) where Diego himself rode one, then the people who live in cemeteries and how gambling in wakes helps the family of the deceased one finance the burial. After which, he featured the cockfighting industry and the last feature was the most fascinating one for me as it featured the other side of the Bilibid prison. I never knew that the Bilibid prison today actually has a small community now where some of the prisoners play sports and have businesses inside. All in all, it was a good feature, something I would really expect from this show. What I really like about this show is that the tone is not judgmental of the country's culture and it focuses more on the "human side" and really gives you a peek of how the people on the other side of the world lives. I love that they feature the not so typical activities/features of each place and I'm glad I was able to catch the episode they featured Manila. I hope they come back and visit the other cities here too like Cebu and Davao.

Spotlight: Modern Family Season 2!

This year's Emmy winner for Outstanding Comedy Series "Modern Family" will be back to start its second season on September 22 on ABC (same timeslot Wednesdays at 9pm). I'm so excited for the show's return especially they are coming off from their Emmy win. I hope the second season will be as good, if not better, than the first season. I really enjoy watching this show because of the strong cast and sharp writing. It's not too snarky and it's very heartwarming to watch. I do really love watching family oriented shows especially as strong as this show is. Anyway, there's a promo posted on Modern Family's official Facebook account and the season 2 promo pictures are released already and I totally love this picture of the whole cast together. Can't wait for season 2! :)

Twenty Three!

Technically, I will turn 23 years old by 11pm tonight so I'll enjoy my last few hours as a twenty two year old haha. Spent my birthday with my family earlier attending a mass at the Malate church and strolling in Baywalk/Roxas Boulevard for a few hours. I really appreciate how this place is perfect to hang out with your family and loved ones, I believe it was really a good call that they got rid of the establishments there because it became more family friendly and provided more space to walk, jog, bike, exercise, have a picnic and other stuff. Although, sadly I witness an accident earlier too when a taxi driver hit a vendor who was crossing the street. I did not see the whole incident though but just the aftermath, I hope the vendor and taxi driver too will be fine. Anyway, it was really good way to spend the day with my family. When I was at the church earlier, I thanked God for all the blessings he gave to me and my family and that we were able to handle well and survive all the challenges that came along. I couldn't really ask for more because I am really thankful that my family is intact and we are all in condition. I am blessed too that I have a stable job that I truly enjoy. So if you ask me what my birthday wish is, it's just simple I just hope that my family will always be safe and healthy and that we survive all the future obstacles that we will face.

Anyway, a big THANK YOU to all those who greeted me on this special day! From my family, friends in elementary and high school from RCCS, my college friends (Broadcast Journalism family, Heraldo Filipino family and other college buddies I met), former professors , friends from my former jobs and my current job, and to all the friends I met online (Pinoyexchange.com and twitter buddies). And thank YOU to those who visit my blog to check chart updates and all the other stuff I post here.

And thank you God for all the challenges and blessings. :)

Billboard Hot 100 (Issue Date: Sept. 11,2010)

"Love The Way You Lie" topped the Hot 100 for the 7th consecutive week while Katy Perry's Teenage Dream climbs to #2. It was a close fight between the two songs and Love The Way You Lie managed to beat Teenage due to strength of airplay and online streaming. Meanwhile, Bruno Mars' "Just The Way You Are" jumps to #6 this week, it's currently #2 on US iTunes and with it's rising airplay, I'm sure this will be Bruno Mars' third straight Top 5 hit and first of his own. Taylor Swift's Mine returns to the top 10 and Ke$ha's earn her 5th Top 10 hit (including 3OH!3's My First Kiss where she was featured that peaked at #9) as "Take it Off" zooms from 16 to 10 this week. Paramore's "The Only Exception" drops from #24 to #28 and looks like it will decline from hereon but nevertheless "The Only Exception" is Paramore's highest peaking single with a peaking at #24 surpassing the #26 peak of Misery Business (lead singer Hayley William's highest charting song is of course Airplanes which peaked at #2). Train's 'If It's Love" manages a new peak climbing from #54 to #47 this week, will it follow the footsteps of "Hey, Soul Sister" ? Let's see. Just as I thought, The Script's Breakeven will drop out this week, it stays put at #50 on its 39th week (songs 20 weeks old and above that it's no longer in the Top 50 will automatically go recurrent unless there's a rerelease or rising airplay due to crossing of radio format). And for the rest of this week's chart thanks to Charly 1300 Forums

Katy Perry Tops Billboard 200 & Digital Songs Chart

Tomorrow I will post the full results of the Billboard Hot 100 this week (with issue date September 11, 2010) but for now let me post the top 10 best selling songs (digital) and the top 10 albums on Billboard this week. Katy Perry tops both charts this week although the sales for her album "Teenage Dream" did not meet expectations selling 192, 000 this week (some people predicted it will sell at least 300,000 with two smash singles) but it was still a vast improvement from the first week sales of her debut album "One of the Boys" that sold 47,000 in June 2008 (and eventually sold 1.3 million in the US). The title track, which is her second single, sold 259, 000 digital copies this week enough to top the Billboard Digital Songs Chart.Thanks to my favorite music chart columnist Paul Grein of Yahoo! Chart Watch for the following information (these numbers are rounded off by the way):

Top 10 Digital Songs (Billboard)

It's clear that album sales are really taking a hit in the digital age looking at how huge top 10 digital songs compared to the paltry sales of the albums. In my opinion if CDs are cheaper more people would buy. Despite the convenience of digital music, it still feels good to collect physical CDs, it has more sentimental value. I personally would buy more CDs if they don't cost that much. Oh well, I really hope the record executives would do something to save CD sales.

Midweek Musings 6

*Today is the third death anniversary of my maternal grandmother Mama Iyang. I still miss her and ever since she did I really don't feel like going on vacation in Bohol anymore as she is no longer there. I miss how she waits for us in the door of her house on the day of our arrival, how she cooks wonderful adobo, how even though she could not speak Tagalog fluently she still tries so that she could speak to us her grandchildren. I miss her voice, her hugs. I still feel sad that she did not even see the birth of my nephew, her very first great grand child. I really miss you so much Mama Iyang. Please guide us from up there. :)

*I'm back at work this week after one week of sick leave. And there were some changes in the office, literally speaking, as there were re-arrangements in the workplaces/desks good thing though my work space is unchanged because I love my spot in the office.

* I'm excited for the upcoming fall TV season in the US. I miss my favorite shows (mostly sitcoms) and can't wait to check out the new shows as well. I will do a post of my anticipated shows sometime next week, so watch out for it.

* I will turn 23 this week. I don't know what to feel haha. Well, it's bittersweet because I'm happy because celebrating your birthday is always a blessing (you are still alive for crying out loud! haha) but I can't help but feel anxious about growing old (no offense to people older than me okay :D ) or let's say growing up. I just feel the pressure because I'm not a teenager anymore, there are no more excuses for messing things up. I have to be mature and more responsibilities. And I'm at a point in my life where I'm already contemplating where do I go from here? How do I see myself in five years? ten years? It's nerve wracking.

The Start

Today is September 1, 2010 which here in the Philippines means the unofficial start of the Christmas season. Yes, as soon as the first "-ber" month starts, we generally consider this the start of the holiday season haha. I know the Christmas season in the last five years or so in the country is not as festive compared to when I was a child but I promise myself to not let any negativity dampen my spirit. I believe that regardless of the everyday problems we face let's all try to be as optimistic as we can because if we surround ourselves with positive energy it will help us in the long run. I'm not saying that we ignore our problem as if it does not exist but let''s not allow those problem "kill" any sunshine in our life. I don't want to sound preachy or what, I just want to say that let us not be "scrooges", this season should be a fun time and yes even if it's way to early why not start the festivity now? Or at least not think of the Christmas season as a hassle or something not to look forward too? A positive outlook today will go a long way. :)

2010 Primetime Emmy Awards Winners

• First of, I'm very happy for the Modern Family win for Outstanding Comedy plus Outstanding Writing and Outstanding Supporting Actor for Eric Stonestreet! I really thought Glee will win especially that the opening number was all about Glee. Anyway, Jane Lynch won and Ryan Murphy for Outstanding Directing for the pilot of Glee, so it's not a total shut out anyway.
• Jim Parsons won for his iconic role as Sheldon! I never thought it was possible but I'm so over the moon for his win! Bazinga!
• Woah, Kyra Sedgwick did really pull an upset against expected winner Juliana Margulies!Well The Good Wife didn't come home empty handed with the surprising win by Archie Panjabi for Outstanding Supporting Actress!
• Bryan Cranston won for the third straight year. Poor Hugh Laurie, this was his best shot for the win. Sad.
• I'm sure Mad Men deserves the win but Matthew Weiner is just so condescending when he was accepting his awards.
• The Pacific won Outstanding Mini Series, it was up against one nominee only Return to Cranford so it was an obvious win. But they lost writing and directing nods though to TV movies.
• Jimmy Fallon is hilarious in this tribute to 24, Law& Order and Lost. Love the Green Day impersonation
• The Amazing Race lost for the first time! But at least Top Chef won not American Idol! But Survivor should have been nominated
• The Colbert Report lost again to The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. The human centipede reference on the show was a winner for me.

Spotlight: The Social Network

When I first heard that there will be movie about Facebook I thought it was a joke but to my surprise the people behind the film are actually credible and serious filmmakers. The Social Network is the story on how Facebook was created, it is written by Aaron Sorkin ("The West Wing," "A Few Good Men"), directed by David Fincher ("Curious Case of Benjamin Button") and produced by Scott Rudin ("No Country for Old Men," "There Will Be Blood," "Doubt," "Julie and Julia"). There is already a review of this film and the critic says the film is so good that it could be the frontrunner for next year's Oscar awards. I for one will be watching this film once it hit the local theaters (and I believe it will given how popular Facebook is here in the Philippines, I'm sure a lot will be curious about the film). It will be shown in the US in October (and hopefully not long after for the Philippines)

Billboard Hot 100 (Issue Date: Sept.4,2010)

Starting this week I will post the full Billboard Hot 100 results for those who wants to see the full list one single post unlike when you visit the graphics-heavy official Billboard date where it's quite hard to navigate the list. For this week (with issue date of September 4, 2010) Eminem and Rihanna's "Love The Way You Lie" spends its 6th consecutive week at #1 tying Katy Perry's California Gurls run on top this year. Ke$ha's "Tik Tok" is the longest running #1 song for 2010 with 9 weeks. Hotshot debut is Lil Wayne's Right Above It at #6. Longest running song on the current chart "Need You Now" jumps to #23 from #33 on its 54th week. Here is the full list courtesy of Charly 1300 Forums

Emmy 2010 Predix Part 3

The final part of my 2010 Primetime Emmy Awards Predictions. The first part discussed my predictions for the Supporting Acting categories and the second part for the Lead Acting Categories. For the final part of my special blog series, I will discuss who I think will Outstanding Drama Series and Comedy series. For the judging of the winners, each show picked six episodes from the eligible season which they think are the best. The six episodes will be divided to three sets with two episodes each which will be sent to the voters for judging. A voter would only judge the show with two episodes only (of course, there's a possibility that some voters follows a certain show already and watched all episodes of it). Anyway, here are my predictions:

Outstanding Drama Series

* Breaking Bad (AMC)
* Dexter (Showtime)
* The Good Wife (CBS)
* Lost (ABC)
* Mad Men (AMC)
* True Blood (HBO)

Which Show Will Win: Mad Men (AMC)

The current champion is still well loved by the industry like in the past two years. Winning for the third straight year is not a lock but the chances are high, it submitted its strongest episodes last season and this show is not as polarizing as compared to the other nominees.

Close Second: Lost (ABC)
The final season of Lost is the most talked about and debated show last season especially it's series finale. Many find the final season's arc not good overall compared to the previous seasons but the sixth season had a lot of standout episodes and those episodes were the ones submitted for competition. Plus, it could also be an opportunity to reward the show for breaking grounds in US network television and it's an irresistible opportunity to bookend the show with an Emmy win (they won on their first season)

Possible Upset: Breaking Bad (AMC)
-If the show had a more nominations (10+) and if had a Writing nomination I would have pick this show as the close second for the win because the show's third season was very well received by the critics but with only 7 nominations and lack of Writing nod it will really be hard for the show to manage a win. But it did got a nod for Directing plus the amazing performances of Cranston and Paul also helped to raise the show's profile so with a strong set of episodes submitted there's an outside chance that this show could pull an upset win.

Which Show I Want to Win: Lost (ABC)
It's one remarkable show that will be remembered for years, whether you like the conclusion or not, we simply cannot deny how ambitious this project and how it managed to intrigue the viewers and go crazy discussing the show. It also did great with how it handled its characters. It will be a great send off for the show if managed to win for one final chance.

Outstanding Comedy Series

* 30 Rock (NBC)
* Curb Your Enthusiasm (HBO)
* Glee (FOX)
* Modern Family (ABC)
* Nurse Jackie (Showtime)
* The Office (NBC)

Which Show Will Win: Glee (Fox)

Glee received 19 nominations, the most nominated new show and also in the comedy field. It has the buzz, it's the most talked about show last season. It maybe receiving backlash right now due to its intensive hype but no one can't deny the pop cultural impact of this show. It won the Golden Globes, SAG and TCAs. An Emmy will be make it full circle.

Close Second: Modern Family (ABC)
- Next to Glee, it received the second most number of nominations for a new show. The show is praised for revitalizing the family sitcom genre. it won awards in the Writers' Guild and Directors' Guild awards. This will be a close match between Glee and Modern Family.

Possible Upset: 30 Rock (NBC)
Like Alec Baldwin, despite being the current title holder (3 for 3 at that!) no one is expecting 30 Rock to win for a fourth consecutive year due to the strong showing of freshman shows Glee and Modern Family and with a season that was not well received over all. But still 30 Rock chose the right episodes to submit to the voters that could possibly sneak them a win and if let's say the voters are divided between Glee and Modern Family, 30 Rock could still come out as the victor (but I hope not, I like 30 Rock but it's time to give the award to another show)

Which Show Do I Want to Win: Modern Family (ABC)
The show is well written with a great ensemble to give justice to the writing. It gave a new spin to the family sitcom which many people thought is already a tired concept. And I really enjoy watching this sitcom.

Midweek Musings 5

*I'm been on sick leave at work for the past three days because I got acute tonsillitis, flu and asthma. It started last Sunday and I really had a difficult time. It's my first "major" sickness in years. "Major" as in I need to have a check up with the doctor. Although my parents paid for the bill and the medicines, I told them I will pay them come payday because I have to be responsible already and after all I got sick because of my unhealthy eating habits(acute tonsillitis was caused by my excessive eating of sweets and even though I already feel a little off last Saturday I still ate junk foods). It's really expensive to get sick these days so this is a big lesson for me. I need to watch my diet, I'm already near being obese actually and with a family history of hypertension and high blood pressure I should be really cautious.

*As an effect of my sickness, my 2 year old nephew and my mother also got sick. I really feel guilty about this because it's somehow my fault. Nanay is a lot better now thank God but my nephew is not as active as he used to be although the doctor says that we should not worry at all as he has no major illness that he just had minor coughs and slight fever and in one to two days he will recover. But still it really makes me sad to see him not running and playing around and I could see in his eyes he is not feeling good. I definitely understand now why my parents were so protective of me when I was a child because I had several severe asthma attacks as early 2 months old and up until I was around 5 years old. I can imagine how worried they were everytime I was hospitalized. I had times when I talked back to my parents when ever they scold or make sermon at me which now in hindsight makes me feel guilty. Good thing I never had strained relationships with Nanay and Tatay. I love them and I don't regret anymore if there some things in my life before that I sacrificed because I know it will not be good for my parents. It's all worth it.

*Miss Universe 2010 was held yesterday and beforehand I've already heard that Miss Philippines Venus Raj had a shot on winning. I thought it was just media hype like in the past years but well she actually did well yesterday making it to the top 5, the lone Asian in the top 15 actually, and bagging 4th runner up. She could have won if she had a more impressive answer on the Q&A portion but well making it to the finals is already a major, major accomplishment. I know some people may find it shallow since it was just a beauty contest but at least it was somewhat a bright spot for the Filipinos who were disturbed by the hostage taking tragedy last Monday. Yes, it did not solve any problems or anything but it was a good "break" so to speak. Congratulations Venus Raj!

*I'm still not over the hostage taking tragedy last Monday. Everything that happened last Monday still haunts me. And I know that Hongkong nationals are even more upset with this tragedy and sadly it is now straining the relationships of Filipinos and the Hongkong nationals as it has been reported that several Filipino domestic helpers will be fired or already fired by their employers because of the backlash caused by the tragedy. I know that emotions are high right now but I hope that their government will help ask the people to not extend their anger to the domestic helpers and all the Filipinos in Hongkong right now because it's really unfair. I like what Jackie Chan tweeted earlier today because despite his shock and sorrow when he found out about the tragedy he is still rational about it and big thanks for him not promoting a culture of hate. Coming from an influential person like him, it was really touching.

My Thoughts on the Manila Hostage Taking Tragedy

The hostage taking of a dismissed policeman of a tourist bus with Hongkong nationals on board came to a tragic end that will forever be remembered by the country. I thought it wouldn't turn bad because it seemed like the hostage taker will not harm the tourists and just wants to air his grievance but what happened later that night was truly tragic. Much has been said about the mishandling of the authorities and the media aggravating the situation. But the bottomline is eight innocent tourists who just went to have a vacation here in the Philippines were killed and the survivors will be forever be traumatized with the incident. It was truly disappointing how the hostage taking incident was handled. The safety of the hostages should be the top priority above anything else. It's obvious that the drama over the arrest of the brother of the hostage taker aggravated the situation and here is my take on the issue: Media is partly to blame because they should have not covered the incident live knowing that the hostage has access to TV and once he sees his brother being taken by the police that would have surely provoked his anger, I understand that it's different when you are in that moment and that the police did not issue a news blackout or something but it should be the discretion already of the news people, yes I understand they just want to inform the viewers but we, the viewers, we will understand if we will be on the dark with the hostage drama crisis as long as no one will get hurt and especially die. As for the police, I understand that the brother of the hostage was not helping matters by telling his brother not to accept the negotiator's offer but since he was already creating drama and drawing so much attention from the media, you should have not taken that guy because you know he will resist and it will just create commotion that will not reap any good results at all. The priority should have been the safety of the hostages. The ideal scenario is that after the hostages are released safely then they could go back to the brother and charge with obstruction of justice. I really don't want to be one of those people who just loves to blame people whenever bad things happen but in this situation I just really can't keep my thoughts to myself especially after seeing the victims. It was the last day of their trip here in the Philippines and they have to suffer this ordeal! I know it was not an easy job for both the media and police and that they also risked their lives but there were lapses and in that kind of crisis, we can't afford any lapses because one wrong move could cause lives. I just can't help but think that it could have been avoided.
